«I have had the opportunity to work with José Miguel in a coaching process in 2012 and have been able to appreciate his many human and professional qualities. His ability to listen, his creativity and his enormous talent are a gift and a source of inspiration that don’t leave anybody indifferent.

José Miguel has made me see the importance of listening and has helped me understand myself a little more. He has inspired me and has given me the keys to find solutions to many everyday problems. More than a just a training, a vital experience that has made me grow as a person and as a professional.»

Digital Business Director at Tous

«For the past year I have been working with Jose Miguel and that coincides with the time I have been living in Barcelona. I moved here with a new role, a new country and the challenges that followed and in Jose Miguel I found a trusted advisor and good coach, who has helped me excel in a new / Spanish environment.

He is not a traditional coach – he mixes his business acumen, cultural sensitivity and training experience with his coaching ability, and that together with being highly flexible, makes him very effective. He has helped me not only settle and become successful in the role as CEO but with his coaching skills made me more effective in structuring my work and thinking and making the (apparently) complex, more simple. He can break things into pieces and with easy actions overcome challenges, which again helps being more effective with the team.

It has been and still is a pleasure working with Jose Miguel and I am sure he will help me to further success in the future.»

CEO at Primagas Energía, SAU

«José Miguel has helped me explore new approaches to team management. His extensive experience has allowed me to contrast many ideas with him, always encouraging me to be creative.

I would highlight, among others, that he has been able to create the climate of confidence necessary to dig deeper and not staying on the surface.

Without a doubt, I would recommend his experience to all those people who think that it is always possible to continue improving and advancing.»

Xavier Ventura

Managing Director ARQUIA BANCA

«José Miguel is a great coach and had a high impact on my personal development and business results. He did so by training me to reflect on actions and beliefs myself first before giving his own feedback or observations. This enabled me to keep progressing even after the coaching sessions.

He switches very easily between coaching on business challenges, interaction with other persons, discovering personal values and strategic topics. The ‘shadow coaching’ sessions and ‘role-plays’ wherein he observes real situations or simulates them particularly have a high impact.

He knows the Dutch culture/language and is able to provide guidance on cultural topics as well. It was pure luxury to be able to do the coaching in any language (Spanish, English, Dutch).

Last but not least, I value a lot his integrity, which is for me the basis for a fruitful coaching and opening up in the first place.»

Maarten Oskam

General Manager at Primagas LNG

«At first, I was a pretty sceptical of the benefits a coaching process could bring me. But thanks to José Miguel’s skill and experience, the interest in developing professional and personal skills was sparked.

Now I feel I have more resources to build up my strengths and work on the areas to be improved, and I feel very happy with the experience.

José Miguel is a well-prepared professional with the ability to adapt his knowledge and work methods to the needs and objectives of each person.»

Pere Sitjà

Sales and Marketing Director at Gaes

«I’ve been working with Jose Miguel during the last 3 years. As a founder of a high growth company in the video games industry, Jose Miguel helped me become a better CEO.

During this time, we have covered many different topics, with his help and his coaching skills, he helped me to take better and faster decisions. I would highlight his ability to tackle complex situations, finding ways of breaking them into smaller problems and setting up practical action plans to solve them.

He is also a very friendly and open person, which makes the coaching process much more efficient and nicer.»

CEO & Founder at Social Point

«I have been fortunate to have José Miguel as my executive coach. The journey has been more than interesting; it has been enriching and empowering.

José Miguel is a challenging person which is perfect for questioning/modifying/breaking dynamics, situations and interpersonal relationships that otherwise you might never consider otherwise. I must say you have to be willing to work hard and have an open mind to constantly break barriers.

Thank you, José Miguel, for teaching me to always value all situations and consider all possible points of view with the utmost rigor and professionalism.

The best part of the coaching is the great person behind this great professional. »

«José Miguel is a person with an innate ability to listen, analyse and guide people in a simple and close way, he knows how to approach each situation that arises whether personal or professional, helping you to define and achieve clear objectives for improvement.

Without a doubt, he knows how to get the best out of you.»

Ramón Santamaría

Spain Head of Sales & Barcelona Branch Manager at STILL GmbH

«Working with José Miguel as an executive coach and mentor has been a hugely exciting experience, and through it, I have changed my leadership approach. His unique ability to recognize, understand, simplify and explain complex situations, breaking them into practical solutions was game changing in my thinking, and most importantly, my leadership and managerial actions.

He opened my mind to re-discover myself, identify and isolate stumbling blocks in my leadership growth and development, opening the way to new horizons for learning beyond the coaching experience. Jose provided the tools I need to understand why others perceive me the way they do and what I need to do to change the perception, for the better. With my newly honed skills, I am confident I can adjust my actions and modify my behavior for increasingly positive results. My coaching experience will serve me well as I continue to climb the leadership ladder within my organisation.»

Cleophas Torori

Deputy Country Director for Programme, UNDP Liberia

«I was especially reluctant to deal with coaches, but with José Miguel it was different. Despite my total negative attitude, he never gave up and thanks to his effort, I can now say that my coaching experience with him has been very positive.

He has been able to bring out the best in me, almost without realising, but improving my behaviour patterns, my speeches, my group meetings, etc. I have taken advantage of his “teachings” or his “doctrine” and I have really seen tangible results applying the tools he taught me.»

Director of Professional Associations and Corporate Banking at Banco Sabadell

«Jose Miguel is a high energy and intelligent coach, with the ability to adapt to changing situations very rapidly. During the year that he was my coach, we changed the topics on the table many times, but without losing focus of the main goals. He is capable of bringing conceptual ideas back to reality and translate them into concrete action points.

His approach of full day sessions, instead of multiple short sessions, worked very well for me. He is very personal in his approach and extends his help to further than the agreed process. He has helped me a lot and I therefore highly recommend him for anyone who wants a challenging but down to earth coaching process. »

Chief Business Officer at NBE-Therapeutics

«It is rare to find an Executive coach as brilliant as José Miguel.

Since the day I started working with him, my effectiveness and impact as a leader have gained a vigorous boost. José Miguel has an exceptional capability to identify the underlying root cause of a business or a leadership issue in a very detailed, transparent and positive manner – all of this resulting in a clarity of thought and a purposeful goal towards improvement.

Another quality that sets him apart is his natural hyperawareness of the external world that helped me develop an inspired and a limitless mindset.

The last but probably the most lasting impression that I left with after my coaching engagement with José Miguel was his focus towards developing small yet practical changes in my actions and behavior that I needed to bring into my daily work – I am doing this and I see the impact every day!

I am lucky to have an opportunity to have José Miguel as my coach and I wish him all the best for future. »
