Can you be a sensitive (or highly sensitive) person and still be a good leader? I believe not only that it’s possible — but that it might be the greatest contribution you can offer to yourself, your team, your organisation, and maybe even society at large. Whether you're a CEO, team lead, VP, founder, or hold any other leadership role — the moment you stop seeing your sensitivity as a flaw and begin to recognise it as a gift, everything changes. You can lead with kindness and strength. Be empathetic, intuitive, and grounded. Make decisions calmly and in alignment with your values. Say no — without guilt. Be respected, impactful, and inspiring. But learning to protect and honour your sensitivity — and lead from it — isn’t always easy. It often means questioning inherited models, reframing internalised beliefs, and exploring new ways of working that actually suit your nature. That’s where I come in. As an Accredited Coach with over 20 years of international leadership experience in the creative industry, I support you in finding your own way to balance your sensitivity with your leadership responsibilities — and in building a path that feels not only effective, but truly yours. My diverse background includes roles as a trainer, producer, and executive, combined with an academic foundation in philosophy, advanced coaching expertise, and a deep understanding of high sensitivity, leadership, and intercultural communication. Through gentle yet structured coaching and training programs, I help sensitive professionals reconnect with themselves, think clearly, and take aligned action — in their own rhythm and style. Together, we might explore: ✨ how to integrate sensitivity into your leadership style ✨ how to lead others without losing your balance ✨ how to set boundaries without guilt ✨ how to navigate responsibility without hardening your heart ✨ how to make important decisions without feeling overwhelmed If this resonates with you, I’d be happy to hear from you. Whether you're at a crossroads, looking for new clarity, or simply curious about how my programs might support you, feel free to get in touch. I work in both English and Italian.

Minh Ngọc is an ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC) who works with women in leadership roles who carry significant responsibility—often for businesses, teams, or families—and feel the emotional weight that comes with it. Her coaching focuses on the inner side of leadership: clarity, self-trust, and the ability to make decisions that come from alignment rather than pressure, expectation, or fear. Minh Ngọc supports clients who appear capable on the outside but feel conflicted, constrained, or quietly exhausted on the inside. With a background as a former CEO and social entrepreneur, Minh Ngọc understands leadership not only as a role, but as a lived experience—especially when responsibility is inherited, shared, or difficult to step away from. Her work integrates professional coaching with a deep understanding of emotional dynamics, relationships, and personal authority. Minh Ngọc’s coaching style is calm, grounded, and direct. She does not tell clients who to be or what to choose. Instead, she creates a space where leaders can slow down, listen inwardly, and reconnect with the version of themselves that leads with clarity and integrity. She works in English and Vietnamese, and welcomes clients who are ready to explore leadership in a deeper, more personal way.

I am sharing a handful of client testimonials for your perusal! Sierra Trance, Head of Customer Success, Penbrothers International Inc. Location: Philippines Industry: B2B Offshoring Services "I am thrilled to share my heartfelt appreciation for the exceptional leadership coaching provided by Patrick during my first year at Penbrothers. In the realm of leadership development, Patrick has been an indispensable guide. His insights and strategies have not only refined my leadership skills but have also helped me foster a positive and collaborative work environment. This invaluable support has played a pivotal role in my growth as a leader within the organization. Navigating leadership transitions can be a challenging feat, but with Patrick’s guidance, the process became seamless. His thoughtful advice facilitated a smooth integration into my new role, allowing me to confidently take on new responsibilities. What sets him apart is his commitment to transformational coaching. His approach goes beyond conventional coaching, delving deep into unlocking one's full potential. This transformative journey has empowered me to not only meet but exceed my professional goals, marking a significant impact on my career trajectory. His keen focus on individual growth, coupled with strategic guidance, has been the compass steering me through challenges and propelling me toward opportunities for advancement. I consider Patrick as my career “sherpa” more than a leadership coach I never knew I needed, and I’m forever grateful for being his coachee." Josef Werker, Co-Founder and CEO, Humble Sustainability Location: Philippines and Singapore Industry: Circular Economy Startup, Climate Technology, Sustainability. "I’ve had transformational business coaching with Patrick for the past 2 years and I’ve achieved more in 2 years than the previous 30 combined, it has been the steepest phase of growth from my entire career by a mile. He doesn't tell me what to do, the solutions are often in my own head, but clouded by distraction. The first step for me was to be able to speak with complete openness - Patrick makes this easier because of his humble, kind, and empathetic nature, which gave me the assurance that I could open up with the knowledge that there is zero judgement. From there - he touches on his own past experiences and asks the key questions that help me think a little differently. Most importantly, we have clear actions, which ensures there’s tangible and consistent progress. Having someone to speak to who helps me see things clearly seems so simple, yet it has been genuinely transformational. Not only am I improving as a leader and teammate in the workplace, but I am also becoming a better family member and above all, a happier and healthier person. Over the course of 2 years, I have been able to identify my personal and professional goals, and even achieved a few of them. Patrick has helped me navigate through challenging times and see clarity with regards to what I want. I recognize that coaching is a long-term commitment, but I genuinely feel that I am moving towards maximizing my potential with every session. I was not a believer in executive coaching but now I know there’s no way I would be where I am if it were not for him. Because of this, Patrick then went on to coach the management teams at both Penbrothers and now Humble - the feedback and results have been excellent. If you don't already, I encourage you to speak to someone openly on a regular basis. If you haven’t found the right person yet, I strongly recommend having a chat with Patrick."

International Development Leadership: For more than 16 years, I served as a senior leader with the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), holding progressively responsible positions in Washington, D.C. and overseas. My roles included Deputy Director for International Communications, Country Director for Belarus, Director of the Program Office for the Eastern and Southern Caribbean, Deputy Director of the Global Climate Change Office, and Director of the Program and Policy Office in Kosovo. In these positions, I managed portfolios ranging from $45 million to $350 million annually, led teams of up to 20 professionals, and represented U.S. foreign assistance priorities to host governments, interagency partners, Congress, and multilateral organizations. I developed and executed strategic plans that aligned development programming with broader policy objectives, navigated politically sensitive environments, and built coalitions across diverse stakeholder groups. Strategic Communications & Organizational Leadership: As Deputy Director for International Communications at USAID, I led the design and rollout of the agency's first enterprise-wide communications training program, reaching approximately 10,000 employees globally. I shaped strategic communications to meet programmatic objectives, trained senior leadership on speechwriting and media engagement, and supported the strategic vision for USAID's corporate communications worldwide. Earlier in my career, I served as Chief of the Strategy and Budget Division in Pakistan, where I managed a high-performing team responsible for strategy, planning, analysis, and budgeting for a foreign assistance portfolio valued at $4.5 billion. I cultivated relationships with the Pakistan Ministry of Planning and Development and provided analysis that enabled leadership to articulate budget priorities to Congress and the Department of State. Crisis Management & Complex Environments: Much of my career has involved leading through complexity and crisis. As Country Director for Belarus, I coordinated programming across four countries during a period of significant political upheaval, successfully advocating for additional funding to support civil society and independent media. In the Caribbean, I guided USAID's regional response to COVID-19 while implementing the agency's Climate Change Strategy across 11 countries. In Egypt, I supported the Economic Growth team in programming an additional $100 million to respond to post-Revolution development needs, resulting in more than 20 new awards. These experiences taught me how to lead under pressure, make high-stakes decisions with incomplete information, and support teams through uncertainty while maintaining focus on mission-critical objectives.
