About me

About Ludmilla Skinner:

 
In 2007 my partner and I decided we were up for a new challenge and said yes to the opportunity to move to Switzerland. We ended up in Zurich; he as an expatriate, I as a spouse. Determined to make it work for the both of us I left my job as a political policy writer behind me and was keen to secure an interesting job in Zurich. This was easier said than done. Due to a different political system and a language barrier (I didn’t speak any German at all), I was not able to find a similar job. In order to be successful I knew I had to make a plan and set some goals.
Like most people in such a situation I needed to alter an aspect of myself. Realizing there is a big difference between wanting, knowing and doing I had to think of an old Texan saying: most people want to go to heaven, but few of them are willing to die, meaning; I had to step out of my comfort zone in order to create change...and I did. I learned the language and started applying for jobs where my interpersonal skills could be a benefit. I became a recruiter. This job gave me the same ability as before; to contribute to other people’s life.
After working in Recruitment for two years, I became more and more aware of my coaching skills. I decided to leave the job and pursue my dream. This was when I decided to become a professional coach.
