NICHOLAS VAN DOOREN

As someone who grew up in Dubai, UAE, and spent many years living and working across the Middle East and Asia, I have had the privilege of meeting people from diverse cultures and backgrounds, which has enriched both my personal and professional life. Over the years, I’ve cultivated meaningful relationships and built a successful career primarily within the Oil and Gas industry, where I gained invaluable experience in operations management, client relationship building, and problem-solving under high-pressure environments. In my role as Sales/Business Development Manager for Woodhouse International, I have thrived in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment. Managing multiple high-profile clients globally, while navigating the challenges of a 24/7 industry, has sharpened my communication, interpersonal, and leadership skills. Achieving significant milestones, even in the face of industry downturns, has taught me resilience, adaptability, and how to overcome unforeseen obstacles—all of which are qualities I now wish to bring into my new career as a life coach. I am excited to transition these skills into a more personal and impactful space, helping others achieve their personal and professional goals. My extensive experience in managing relationships, motivating teams, and solving complex problems will allow me to support individuals in navigating their own challenges and unlocking their potential. I bring a strong work ethic, a solution-oriented mindset, and a passion for helping others grow. I am confident that the same energy and expertise that fueled my success in the corporate world will now empower me to make a meaningful difference as a life coach.
