Edith Bosch stood at the absolute world top in judo for 16 years. Always fighting: literally and figuratively. Everything to achieve the ultimate goal, to become the best in the world. With an iron discipline, she pushed herself to the limit. Harder, better, faster… Until she hit a wall. She realized that her life was more about obligation than desire, and that she was sabotaging her own well-being and success. She had to change herself and take 100% responsibility to truly win.<\/p>\n
She found the courage to look at herself and do something good with what she saw. To use everything she had experienced for her own growth. That’s when everything changed, for herself and the people around her.<\/p>\n
From her mission to contribute to a ‘brave new world’, Edith shares her experiences as a speaker and motivator. She gets everyone excited to take control themselves and no longer depend on their surroundings. So that you can also make more of a difference for the people around you.<\/p>\n
It seems so easy, we think we’re all doing it, but when it gets challenging, there are few who demand that of themselves and others; being 100% responsible. She helps companies and (young) professionals play their own game. She provides the tools you need to truly take responsibility now. Especially in moments that matter, when it’s exciting or doesn’t go as expected.<\/p>\n
Edith challenges you to do what is necessary to take steps yourself. Redefining what being successful means. This way, you don’t just keep your talent for yourself, but also help those around you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

The process is universal\u2026 Let yourself be inspired and motivated to also go for gold.\r\n\r\nIt seems so easy; we think we\u2019re doing it all, but when it gets challenging, few ask themselves and others to take 100% responsibility. Edith explains how to do this and, even more importantly, what it can bring to you and those around you.\r\nHow do you make the difference by doing something different at the moments that truly matter? What is the link to current events happening in the (sports) world? Edith provides answers in a motivating, contagious, honest, and confrontational manner.

As an Olympic judoka, she performed under extreme pressure. Later, she sought out that same intensity in programs like Expeditie Robinson<\/em> and Special Forces<\/em>. Today, she brings that experience into organizations as a trainer in leadership and organizational excellence within fast-growing companies.\r\n\r\nWhat she sees there is strikingly familiar: teams invest endlessly in what<\/em> they do, but rarely in how<\/em> they work together.
