Hylke Faber started his work life with Towers Perrin as consultant and then as Partner with Strategic Decisions Group, serving a wide range of industries, including financial services, manufacturing, consumer electronics and life sciences companies. A major shift occurred during this critical phase of his life. He had become the typical, hard-charging, 16-hours-a-day strategy consultant, and was burning out at a rapid clip.
When he discovered meditation, everything changed. He was so taken by his new discoveries that he chose to bring to business what he was learning: that there is a way we can have it all – we can be fulfilled, do work we love, and create extraordinary results with others. He thinks of it as creating a sense of ease in business.
He learned how to coach and facilitate human transformation completing his coaching certification with Newfield Network and by working at Axialent, the culture and leadership company. After a few years, he founded Co-Creation Partners together with other leaders in the field of transformation and personal development. Then, at the beginning of 2014, he formed Constancee to help people grow by creating the conditions where deep personal, interpersonal and organizational shifts happen routinely.
In addition to working with organizations, he leads the Growth Leaders Network, a culture and team development consultancy and The Crocodile School, an organization dedicated to developing facilitators and coaches. He also teaches coaching at Columbia Business School Executive Education and has contributed to Harvard Business Review. His award-winning book, Taming Your Crocodiles: Unlearn Fear & Become a True Leader, was published by Dover in May 2018. His next book, Taming your Crocodiles Practices for Leadership Depth, was published by Dover in June 2020.
Besides helping others grow, he is a trained opera singer, and enjoys hiking and writing, is an avid reader, in particular of biographies, and is always in the process of growing himself. He integrates all of what he learns in his work with executives.
