What people say
A few things people have said after working with me.
“My session with Aggelos was thoughtful and uniquely well rounded. He brought more than just strategic perspective. His background as a psychotherapist really stood out... in the way he listened, the questions he asked, and how he went deeper than the surface details. I'd strongly recommend a session with him for anyone looking for practical and perceptive insights.”
“I had worked with coaches before, and I had been in therapy before, but this felt different. Aggelos understands the emotional side without losing sight of the actual situation I am dealing with at work. We can talk about pressure, shame or something happening in my body, and five minutes later discuss a decision involving my team or business. I don’t have to translate one world into the other for him.”
“Aggelos was the best person to have as a sounding board while I navigate a challenging time in my career. He listened, was empathetic and provided me with some actionable ideas to get myself "unstuck". Highly recommend!”
“Just got off a call with Aggelos, and it was really good and insightful. He asked me lots of questions before the call and did his research about me, which I appreciated. At the start of the call, he gave a quick summary of what he learned about me, and I updated him with new info. We discussed product positioning, packaging, market fit, and pricing. I left with a clear four-step action plan to help me develop the right pricing model for my customers, and he told me exactly how to find the needed info. If you're thinking about getting advice, I highly recommend Aggelos”
“I came in expecting a fairly standard coaching conversation. Within the first session, Aggelos understood both the professional problem and the emotional mechanism underneath it. He was warm, but very straightforward, and gave me a way of looking at the situation that I had not considered before. I left with more than advice. I left with a more accurate problem.”
“Aggelos is an incredible mentor to connect with. I had been feeling stuck for a few weeks now, but his combination of direct, honest and compassionate feedback helped me to see my own blindspots. Aggelos will challenge you to think beyond where you are now and break through. Looking forward to another session - thank you Aggelos!”
“Mind-blowing session. I went from "I'm unsure of what we should test next with GTM" to: "I've got 5 different possible experiments and all I need to do is flesh them out and prioritize." Plus, got some GREAT insights on content ideas as a completely unexpected bonus. Highly recommend Aggelos if you need to get clarity on GTM!”
“One of the most useful things is that Aggelos actually understands the environment I work in. I don’t need to explain corporate politics, startup pressure, targets, investors or why a career decision can feel more complicated than “follow your values.” He understands the game, but he also notices what the game is doing to me.”
“If you're REALLY looking for insightful feedback on your brand positioning and not just for compliments about your work that will lead you nowhere, Aggelos is the person for you. I came to him with a question about how as a newbie in consulting world should I sell my services and I got exactly what I needed - pointed out weaknesses followed up with clear directions and a structured approach on how to define my target clients and to create offers that would suit them. Phew, much work ahead of me but hey, that's what I wanted to hear and I know where to start now :) Thanks again, Aggelos! Next time we'll turn the roasting table. Be prepared! ;)”
“I did not want somebody to tell me to work less, lower my standards or become less ambitious. Aggelos understood that immediately. Our work has been about keeping the part of me that wants to build and achieve, while becoming less dependent on winning, comparison and external approval to feel okay. That distinction has been very important to me.”
“It was a wonderful session and helped me to figure out why I do I have certain behaviour and how do I make it better. He also helped me with understanding myself better and the reason the why I follow those pattern's. Wonderful session and would recommend anyone who are working on improving themselves to be better”
“I had been forcing a business situation to continue because stopping it felt like failure. After one of our exercises, I realised I was trying to manufacture reasons to keep going when I already knew the answer. I had the difficult conversation shortly afterwards. It was not that Aggelos gave me the decision. He helped me stop fighting what I already knew.”
“Where do I start?! I was given a strong recommendation to book a call with Aggelos, and it's safe to say, I wish I had met him sooner. Within moments of our call, his expertise shone through, delivering exceptional value and insights that would have taken significantly longer to figure out on our own. He came prepared and quickly pinpointed critical areas in our research strategy that needed addressing, proving fantastic resources and actionable advice on the best next steps. Arguably one of the best mentors I have come across. If you are looking for someone with serious customer research chops, I cannot recommend Aggelos enough. :-)”
“From the outside, I was still functioning and performing at a high level, so it was difficult to explain why something felt wrong. Aggelos understood that the problem was not simply workload. We have worked on the way I connect achievement with safety, worth and relief. I am still ambitious, but success is beginning to feel less like narrowly escaping failure.”
“Aggelos is amazing with pricing. In 30 minutes, he managed to save me a lot of time and money from my next steps, offering guidance for my company's pricing and positioning efforts. Highly recommended! Thanks you Aggelos!”
“The conversations go deeper than ordinary coaching, but I still leave with something usable. Sometimes that is a decision, sometimes a difficult conversation I need to have, and sometimes it is simply noticing the moment my body moves into threat before my mind creates a story around it. It is a rare combination of depth and practicality.”
“Aggelos is super cash and to the point, but very considerate about long term impact of his recommendations - definitely the man you need if in front of tricky choices!”
“I started working with Aggelos during a confusing period in my career. On paper, things were going well, but internally I was questioning almost everything. Over several sessions, he helped me understand which concerns were legitimate and which were being amplified by old fears around performance, failure and how other people saw me. I feel more grounded now, even though not everything has been resolved.”
