Where can I go for free professional coaching?

Entrepreneurs can get free professional coaching this year when they are in dire straits, such as when the corona crisis threatens them with bankruptcy.

Entrepreneurs can apply for this at Stichting Ondernemersklankbord (OKB), which is co-funded by EZK. Previously, entrepreneurs paid a 150 euro co-payment for this.

Stichting Ondernemersklankbord (OKB) is a small organization that has existed for 40 years and works with some 300 volunteers, mostly former entrepreneurs, to assist SME entrepreneurs with coaching. This is usually done by means of trajectories of 6 months, during which entrepreneurs can call on the expertise of the OKB without limitation.

In this corona time, the OKB, as an extension of the Chamber of Commerce (CoC), forms the second-line care for entrepreneurs, so to speak: the CoC is the first point of contact for information and advice; the OKB for (further) coaching and advice.

The OKB holds consultation hours (by appointment) at Ter Zake Het Ondernemershuis in Zoetermeer.

Who can I explore opportunities for my business with?
