What the people I have worked with say.

Recommendations from people I have mentored and from those who worked with me during my operations career.

I am preparing new pieces. In the meantime, follow along on LinkedIn.

From the people I've mentored

Direct feedback from mentoring clients I have worked with one to one.

"When I started working with Bengi, I was in the middle of a major career change and did not really know where I was heading. For the first time, I looked honestly at what I wanted in the long run. Once that became clear, I could focus more calmly on the work in front of me. I learned not to run myself into the ground while setting priorities in the middle of daily pressure. I could not have found my footing this fast on my own."

"We worked on my adaptation process after moving to Italy, and on managing the uncertainty around finding a job. What changed for me was the ability to look beyond the pattern I wanted to build based on my previous experience, and to consider options outside it. I saw how the psychological foundation of migration affects every layer of life. Thank you Bengi, for handling every unusual situation with kindness and quick thinking, and for making me feel safe, even during the sessions themselves."

"Throughout my career, the support and guidance Bengi gave me was truly valuable. She made an important difference in helping me evaluate the right opportunities, see my strengths more clearly and move toward my career goals with more direction. I recommend Bengi with full confidence to anyone who wants to take a new step in their career or invest in their professional growth."

"We worked on a habit of procrastination that had challenged me for a long time. Through this process I recognized how layered procrastination was for me, and that more than one reason sat behind it. The biggest benefit of our sessions was not only building awareness, but also creating a realistic action plan together and following it week by week. In a short time I made real progress on something that had challenged me for years."

From the people I've led and worked alongside

LinkedIn recommendations from managers, peers and direct reports from my operations career. None of them were mentoring clients.

"It was a pleasure working with Bengi. She is highly effective at managing teams, driving real impact, and ensuring things move forward with clarity and focus."

"Bengi was a huge support during a period of high pressure and demand. Her ability to bring clarity, structure my thinking and keep me focused on what truly matters made a real difference."

Iván HernándezThen Country Manager at BooBoo

"Bengi served as Senior Head of Operations during an 18 month period of intense organisational scaling. Her greatest contribution was her unwavering empathy and leadership of the team. She has a talent for navigating cross-cultural nuances, managing our largest international client with a level of diplomacy and professionalism that kept relationships strong across different countries. As she transitions into coaching, her ability to understand diverse perspectives and support individuals through stressful transitions will be an incredible asset. Bengi brings the human element to business."

Karen ReithThen COO and Co-founder at Service Club Delivery

"Bengi is a natural leader, but what truly sets her apart are her human qualities. She leads with empathy, listens carefully, and always takes the time to understand people. She creates trust effortlessly and makes everyone feel valued and supported, even in challenging situations."

Carmine MarinoThen Head of Quality at Service Club

"Bengi consistently demonstrated outstanding leadership, professionalism, and a deep understanding of operational management. She has the ability to balance strategic thinking with hands-on execution. Bengi successfully optimized processes, established clear performance metrics, and fostered a culture of accountability and continuous improvement."
