Is this for you?
Clients most often come when:
- they want to understand and change a pattern in their behaviour – at work or at home,
- they have to make a big decision and want it to be in line with their values,
- they are looking for career direction – next step, new role, new company,
- they have lost motivation or energy and want it back,
- they need a new perspective on a problem or an opportunity,
- they want balance between work, family and their own needs,
- they want to grow their team or business and improve its performance.
What changes
- Clarity. You know what you want and why it matters to you.
- Decisions. You choose a direction that fits your values – not other people’s expectations.
- Action. You leave every session with concrete steps you have defined yourself.
How I work
Coaching is a partnership conversation. You are the expert on your life – I bring structure, curiosity and honest reflection. I don’t give advice or push my own solutions; with the right questions I help you find your own resources and insights.
I follow the structure, ethics and competencies of the International Coaching Federation (ICF). Where it helps, I also work with body awareness – noticing what you feel, not just what you think – which often opens things that a purely rational conversation cannot reach.
My typical clients know they want a change and roughly in which area. They need someone who doesn’t judge, accepts them as they are and supports them in defining their direction and first steps.
What clients say
Well-structured conversations. You actually followed all the steps of GROWTH coaching, including asking the right questions that led to finding options and solutions without judgment.
Your questions drew me into the discussion and helped me find my way toward the goal.
Rajneesh Handa, Business Head, Siemens Healthineers
His approach, focused on body awareness and inner experience, is a great guide to deeper self-understanding and finding solutions. Some of his suggestions surprised me at first, but they helped me realize many important things about myself.
This wouldn’t have been possible without the safe space and Stanislav’s sensitive and respectful approach – which he was able to create even online.
Ľubomíra Kapustová, Coach
Stanley always listens deeply and carefully to what the client says. Thanks to his experience and integrated systems, he can look at the problem from a higher perspective and help guide me toward my desired goal.
Tomáš Francan, Consultant, Veritas Technologies LLC
I really like how you structure your questions. They immediately trigger answers in my mind.

Coaching or mentoring?
| Coaching | Mentoring | |
|---|---|---|
| Who has the answers | You – I ask questions | Both of us – I also share experience and advice |
| Best for | Decisions, motivation, values, balance | Concrete management skills and situations |
| Typical topics | Career direction, confidence, life balance | Delegation, feedback, team leadership, stakeholders |
In practice I often combine both – and I always say which hat I’m wearing. Not sure which one you need? We’ll decide together during the free intro call.

How it works
- Book a free 20-minute intro call on findacoach.eu. No preparation needed - just think about what you want to change and what a good outcome would look like.
- We agree on goals and format. Together we choose coaching or mentoring, a single session or a package, and online or in-person meetings.
- Regular sessions. Usually 60 minutes, online, by phone, or in person in Bratislava, or at a place we agree on. Between sessions you can reach me by phone or email.
A session can be cancelled no later than 12 hours in advance; otherwise it counts as completed.
Frequently asked questions
Is it confidential?
Yes. Everything we discuss stays between us, in line with the ICF Code of Ethics. If your company pays, I only confirm attendance – never the content.
Can my employer pay for it?
Yes. I invoice the company directly at the company rate. Coaching and mentoring are often covered by the education or development budget – ask your manager or HR.
How many sessions will I need?
A specific topic or situation can often be handled in 1–3 sessions. A lasting change in how you lead or live usually takes 3–6 months – that’s why the Focus and Growth packages exist.
Online or in person?
Both work well. Most clients meet online; in person we can meet in Bratislava, surrounding areas or at your company.
Do you also meet in person outside Bratislava?
Yes, by arrangement. Travel costs are added to the price.
Which language?
English, Slovak or Czech.
Is coaching the same as therapy?
No. Coaching focuses on your present and your goals. If I feel your topic belongs to a therapist, I will tell you openly.
