Personal development
NRG offers an intensive personal development program to ensure that you know how to function well inside an organisation. For this purpose, you should know your strengths and weaknesses and try to improve where possible. The personal development program consists of two major components: Personal Effectiveness Workshops & Intervision and the Coach-Coachee set up.
Personal Effectiveness Program (PEP)
The PEP is designed to get the best out of you and to ensure that all trainees are able to plan their work in such a way that they can get the best out of themselves and the team. This has all to do with taking responsibility, leadership, effective communication, good planning and organisation.
Personal effectiveness is improving when you gain more insight into yourself and others. Questions that will get answered during the program are ”Who am I, What do I find important, why do I find this so important? Are all my beliefs equally helpful, or do some of them stop me from performing better?”
What is expected from the trainee when joining this class? Eagerness to learn, dare to look at yourself, pro-activity, honesty and getting out of your comfort zone.
Why does Mirjam Speelmans, trainer of this PE Module, like to contribute to the trainee program of NRG? It is very motivating to unlock potential by increasing the level of self-awareness and self-confidence.

The trainee program is a great program for the NRG organisation to attract, retain and thrive young potentials that bring new insights, energy and a new way of working to the organisation.
Coach – Coachee structure
The coach is an independent person inside the company that helps you reach your set goals. Needless to say, you can share personal and work related problems and all conversations with your coach are confidential.
Coach Marieke Schopman: “As a Biomedical Engineer I started my career at NRG in 2007. At that time I was the “Benjamin” of the department and in a very short period I learned a lot by supporting senior colleagues in their projects. On the one hand I loved my work, on the other hand I felt something was missing. Nowadays I realise what I need to enjoy and excel in my work. But it was a bumpy ride to get this insight. As a coach of the trainee program I see it as my role to support the coachee in their personal development plan (PDP). Of course we also discuss the more daily challenges. At the moment I am the coach of Ben-Louis.
I find it very rewarding to see the growth of the trainees during their trainee period and am very proud that everyone finds a position at NRG that suits them best”.
