What to expect working with me
Excellence
Details are important. Details differentiate "ok" from "amazing". I always expect "amazing", from me and from others.
Hard work
Nothing is impossible. You just need to put the hard work. No excuses. If it's difficult, you just work harder - and smarter!
Honesty
Strong relationships are based on trust. And trust is based on honesty. You can expect full honesty from me, for the good and for the bad.
People first
Goals and results are important, but people are more important. Without them, nothing else would be possible.
Flexibility
Life is surprising sometimes. I like planning and organising in advance, but I am always ready to adapt if the situation changes last-minute.
Discretion
Sometimes things get difficult in life. Any problems or documents you share with me or my team will remain strictly between us.

Hello, my name is Esther and I am the Founder & CEO of Languages for Leaders.
My goal is to empower the next generation of foreign business leaders to maximize their global impact through the most effective English & communication programmes in the world.
In today’s globalized world, communication skills in English are the key for success. At any level, in any organization, in any market.
And businesses in non-English-speaking countries are at a disadvantage.
This is a great financial loss for you - as a business leader.
But this is also a disaster for society, which is missing on your immense potential:
- Innovations that could save 1000s of lives
- Solutions that could stop global warming
- Products that could revolutionize life as we know it today
So after 20+ years teaching languages and working at top global organisations, I decided it was time to put all my expertise in language education and international communication at the service of local business leaders - so they can grow and shine internationally as they deserve.
From struggling to speak English, to leading international teams at some of the largest organisations in the world
