Our Story

We Believe Transformation Should Build People, Not Break Them

Out of Office Space was founded on one belief: that the human side of transformation deserves as much investment as the strategic side.

Meet the Founder

Marlies Hazelaar

Marlies Hazelaar is an ICF-PCC transformational and leadership coach with over 15 years of experience supporting leaders and employees through organisational transformation, restructuring, and change.

Having worked inside global organisations as both a leader and an HR professional, Marlies saw first-hand how transformation consistently failed to account for the human side — and how costly that was for both individuals and organisations.

She founded Out of Office Space to give small and medium size companies access to the kind of professional, confidential coaching support that was previously only available to large enterprises.

Our Values

What We Stand For

Confidentiality First

We never share individual session content. Trust is everything.

Proactive Not Reactive

We intervene during transformation, not after the damage is done.

Accessible for All

Great coaching should not be reserved for the C-suite.

Measurable Impact

We hold ourselves accountable to outcomes, not just sessions.

Human-Centred

Every decision we make puts the employee experience first.

Built for SMEs

We design for the realities of smaller, fast-moving organisations.
