About Coach Supervisor Gerrit Pelzer
I am Gerrit Pelzer, a Coach Supervisor and Executive Coach. Born and raised in Germany, I have spent much of my life in Asia. I have been coaching executives full-time since 2010, focusing on senior leaders in multinational corporations.
Coaching supervision has helped me immensely in my pursuit to become the best coach I can be. The positive experience from group supervision and individual coaching supervision prompted me to become a coach supervisor myself. The outstanding academic reputation of Oxford Brookes University made my choice easy, and I decided for the 'Professional Certificate of Advanced Study in Coaching Supervision' with Tatiana Bachkirova and Peter Jackson.
In our coaching supervision sessions, I will create a safe environment in which you can reflect and gain new insights that will help you advance your coaching practice. As your coach supervisor, my purpose is to help you be the best coach you can be, enjoy your coaching more, and have even more success with your clients.
I like to describe my approach to coaching supervision as holistic and systemic. On the one hand, it is informed by applied neuroscience: an understanding of how the human brain and mind impact our way of being, thinking, and acting. On the other hand, my work has also been strongly influenced by Asian wisdom traditions, especially by the teaching of Zen Master Thích Nhất Hạnh.
A client of mine once stated that my coaching supervision is "more than just upgrading skills" and "focused on the most important coaching tool—showing up as your best, most authentic self."

"Working with Gerrit has deepened my self-awareness as a coach, and consequentially, has taken my coaching to a different level. I look forward to continuing to work with Gerrit and highly recommend him!"
