Frequently Asked Questions

Suited Support is for organizations that want to reduce or prevent absenteeism and staff turnover.

It’s also for companies that are serious about engagement, retention, and sustainable employability.

Whether you're an HR manager, team leader, or part of the executive team – if you're focused on keeping your people on board and preventing burnout or drop-out, I can help.

Where do I start? First of all, the costs of absenteeism and losing employees are sky-high. The departure of just one employee can easily cost up to €30,000 a year. Think of the costs of replacement, loss of knowledge, and hiring new staff. Not to mention the extra pressure it puts on the team. And then there’s more:

• Time. If you don’t have to hold every conversation yourself, you free up time to focus on your goals.
• Discomfort. Having personal conversations isn’t everyone’s favorite task.
• Openness. People don’t always share everything with their manager or HR, out of fear for the consequences.
• Insight. Not everything that’s going on reaches the decision-makers. As a result, adjustments often come too late – or not at all.

A formal confidential advisor steps in when there’s a problem.
They deal with reports around integrity, misconduct, or conflict – all within strict legal frameworks and procedures.

My role is different. I work alongside HR and managers, but from a preventive and supportive angle.

I’m not here to handle complaints. I offer a neutral, trusted space where employees can speak freely – about what’s going well, what’s weighing on them, doubts, stress, or things that usually stay beneath the surface.

I gather those signals – anonymously and by theme – and turn them into clear insights the organization can actually act on.

The Stay Conversation is an open and informal check-in to hear how an employee is really doing. For example: what gives them energy, and what drains it.
The goal is to take the employee seriously and spot signals in time.
It’s a confidential conversation with a neutral person, focused on listening and understanding.

Coaching, on the other hand, is aimed at achieving specific, pre-set goals.

Yes, every conversation I have is confidential.
What employees share with me stays between us.

With the Stay Conversation, there is an option to share anonymous, theme-based insights with HR or leadership – so policies can be adjusted if needed.

The Stay Conversation program usually runs for a minimum of 6 months and at least includes:

• an intake
• two one-on-one conversations per employee
• quarterly meetings with management
• a report with key insights

The package can be expanded if needed – for example with extra conversations or additional tools.

The Stay Conversation is confidential.
But of course, you still want to turn the outcomes into something useful.

You can. The results are bundled anonymously by theme in a report.

That gives you valuable input to fine-tune your policies – so you get a double return on your investment. 

Absolutely. You can start with a pilot – for example, with one team.

After that, we’ll evaluate together what worked and how (or if) we continue.

Feel free to get in touch to explore the options.

On the contrary – I often work with organizations that want to prevent absenteeism or turnover.

The Stay Conversation helps spot early signals, so you can step in before issues grow.

The Talent Conversation focuses on boosting energy and motivation.

Organizations that want to move forward – or are going through change – benefit from a fresh, independent perspective.

And let’s not forget: increasing engagement is a proven strategic investment.

The Talent Conversation is for anyone in a work setting – managers, employees, and teams.

It always starts with the CliftonStrengths assessment and a one-on-one Discovery Session based on your unique profile.

This is followed by three Growth Conversations to further develop your strengths.

For teams, there’s also a team session where we explore the group’s strengths and how they interact.

Gallup CliftonStrengths® is a practical tool that helps you discover what you naturally do best.

It gives you clear insight into your talents – so you know what works for you, in your job and beyond.

Millions of people worldwide use it to consciously apply their strengths – for themselves, their team, and their organization.

Please check out the Background page for more detailed information.

You can also visit the Gallup website via www.gallup.com.

That depends on the size and nature of the request.
Often, we can start intake and first conversations within two weeks.
For larger programs, we’ll create a planning together.
