34. COMEBACK - Bea - sick leave – car crash in Silicon Valley - two attempts at returning – comeback coaching
Episode description
My guest today is Beatrice Gloor, whose life changed dramatically when she was en route to a client meeting in Silicon Valley. Beatrice has 20 years’ experience as a Senior Relationship Manager and leader in highly demanding, volatile, fast-paced global corporates.
In 2015 Beatrice was in a car accident which caused an aneurysm, six mini strokes, severe concussion, internal injuries, loss of short term memory and various cognitive impairments. She was out of the business for about a year and despite all predictions she made a full recovery which was twice as fast as those with similar injuries. She's a true go-getter who was born and raised in Switzerland and has lived around the world.
