Bio - Anita Bakker
The
continuous development and life-integration of personal
leadership qualities is the foundation for Anita's coaching
practice and learning philosophy. She holds certification in
Executive Coaching through the graduate program at Royal
Roads University, in Career Facilitation from Okanagan
University College and in both True Colors and Personality
Dimensions assessments...and values her informal learning
equally.
With 14
years at the head of her Coaching/Consulting business,
Essentials for Excellence, Anita brings experience from
the performing arts, government, health care, colleges,
small business, and career development. She has enjoyed a
history of success as an entrepreneur in retail as well as
in large corporations and colleges. Her background is
rounded out with an Erma Bombeck style "Doctorate in Life",
awarded through a long term marriage yielding three
wonderfully patient and forgiving adult children! This
"doctorate" includes specialization in laughter, sorrow,
love and deep reflective learning.
As a life-long learner,
Anita combines other diverse interests and studies with an
intense curiosity and a deep respect for people and balances
it all with refreshing levity and humour. Creating a safe
and open environment for unguarded and spontaneous
communication, Anita has become highly skilled at aligning
people's talents and deeply held values with systems and
processes.
With
determination, commitment and enthusiasm, Anita is devoted
to assisting people to know their purpose, see their vision,
and stretch beyond, to achieve excellence both personally
and professionally. She is committed to living
authentically and in balance (whatever that is!) through the
pursuits of her passion for cultural studies, music,
reading, exercise, skiing (and attempting to golf!)…and
becoming a “youthful new elder” in an exciting time of
change.
