My name is Silvia de Ridder and I am the principal of Unconscious Potential. I established Unconscious Potential with the desire to assist individuals to achieve their personal goals and to help leaders and organisations create and nurture high performing work cultures.

As a coach I work with the purpose of not only helping clients achieve their desired outcomes, but to provide them with life long learning. I am a firm believer that given the right resources, tools and support we all have the power within us to achieve brilliance.

Having worked in corporate environments developing and leading cross functional teams on a broad range of business change management programs within the Telecommunications, Airline and Construction industries, I bring a wealth of experience and passion to the profession of coaching.

My style can best be described by the below client testimonial:

“Silvia is outcomes focused, her style is very empowering, and confidence building. She provides coaching that is motivational and positive - whilst supportive; and is a good balance between head and heart. She is committed to work with me to unlock my ‘Unconscious Potential’ which she cultivates with a professional and caring approach - she offers her skills and abundant energy for betterment of self, professionalism and community.”

As an executive coach I work across a broad range of organisations ranging from small, medium business to corporate and public authority bodies. I also support the community in providing executive coaching services on a pro-bono basis to the Not for Profit sector.
