GROUNDED — ‘Marc knows how to make space for my artistic world; for my driving forces, my way of working – for what is visible and for what is still taking shape. In our conversations, he took the time to listen actively, with attention and conscientiousness. From that clarity, my story found its form.

Through this journey, I rediscovered my identity: an artist with a harp. That, for me, is essential. I live in language and feel at home in this new textual profile. It is not a static formulation, but a spirited one that, in dialogue with Marc, has become the tonal ground from which I continue to create and to follow my path.’ – Anne Vanschothorst

Same session models, very unique outcome. Anne’s ability to describe herself in the most specific ways has resulted in a profile text that is truly one of its kind. See it work at harpandsoul.com

TOOL KIT — ‘It works if you work it’ does not only apply to Alcoholics Anonymous. It’s there whenever theory and strategy need to be put into practice.

I tailored my workshop ‘Raise your profile’ as part of the extensive programme the SEM Academy offered 30 almost-graduates and young professionals. Using my Authenticity model and the well-known Golden Circle, we also worked on translating them into texts and images to be that distinctive professional.

Many thanks to Idske Bakker and for having me on the team once more.

YOUR CHOICE — Fair (or at least, more fair) pay for musicians is not only an issue for policy makers and organisers. I switched from Spotify to (the France-based) Qobuz when seeing their payout in comparison.

Better sound quality too, and the firm belief to have left Spotify CEO Daniel Ek devastated 😏

Why the ‘WHY’? — Raising your profile revolves around changing perspective in order to define distinctiveness and engage with your audience in communication.

‘Why do I do what I do’ and ‘Why should anyone be interested?’ were central to the four-hour workshop for students and alumni, conducted twice at the Kunstuniversität Graz.

Lydia Batiza and her colleagues from the Career Service Center have gone out of their way to make this a success. Many thanks for your invitation and dedication!

AS ONE — ‘We sometimes wish we could just be on stage making music, but the work behind the scenes is just as important. Green Room helped us pause, reflect, and truly understand who we are and why we do what we do.

The process was light, well-structured, fun, and surprisingly deep. Marc’s guidance felt effortless, capturing our essence almost without us noticing. Our message, strategy, and profile text are now clear, focused, and unmistakably ours. As a group, we feel stronger, better organised, and guided by a clear sense of purpose.’

These words by are quite literally Green Room’s reason-to-be. And what a joy it was to work with this bunch of enthusiasts!

KAIROS — Seasoned next to aspiring. ‘I was there once’ meets ‘Could this be my future?’

You can feel the excitement of the collaboration between and in their Side-by-side programme, especially by looking at the young faces. The energy of Giedrė Šlekytė couldn’t be more appropriate.
