Venczel Judit
executive business coach, mediator, consultant
More than two decades of international leadership experience, combined with French–Hungarian executive coach training, have shaped the way I work today with leaders and organisations.
For twenty-two years, I led a French company in Hungary. One question stayed with me throughout that entire period: how do you build a successful business while maintaining a sustainable and stable leadership culture?
While building the Hungarian presence of a well-known French brand, I experienced first-hand how a small team gradually became a large organisation. Momentum evolved into structure, operational management into strategic thinking. I learned that business performance is always rooted in deeper organisational shifts: clarified roles, aligned responsibilities and transformed decision-making logic.
Today, I work as an executive business coach, leadership and organisational development consultant, and business mediator. My approach is grounded both in hands-on leadership experience across French and Central European business cultures, and in the methodologies of leading French and Hungarian coaching schools. I completed my executive coach training in Budapest and Paris, and in 2024 I expanded my professional practice with mediation tools and conflict resolution methods.
What it means to work with me
Most clients come to me with a specific situation. A difficult decision, a conflict, a leadership challenge – or simply the feeling that something is not working, even if they cannot fully articulate what it is. They begin to talk about people, situations and organisational dynamics. I listen.
As the conversation unfolds, the bigger picture starts to emerge. Not only what is visible or explicitly said, but also the underlying patterns shaping the situation: recurring dynamics, unspoken tensions, relational blind spots and misaligned ways of operating.
Having spent more than twenty years in leadership roles myself, I understand the weight of decisions, the complexity of organisational dynamics and the often-isolating nature of responsibility. I do not observe leadership from the outside, I have lived it.
At the beginning of our work together, the first step is always to understand the situation with greater clarity. I provide feedback, structure the thinking and help make sense of the system behind the issue. The goal is not to produce quick answers, but to develop a more precise understanding of what is really happening.
Clients often tell me that they leave with a much clearer view of themselves, their leadership style and the environment around them. And years later, many of them can still recall specific sentences from our conversations.

Promoting French coaching culture in Hungary
I am deeply inspired by the depth, ethical standards and human-centered approach of coaching as it is practiced in France.
As part of my commitment to bringing this mindset to Hungary, I collaborate with Z-Press Publishing to translate French coaching books and self-reflection workbooks into Hungarian.
These translations aim to introduce powerful tools and perspectives that are still little known in Hungary, making them accessible to local coaches, leaders, and professionals.
For me, translation is not just a linguistic task – it’s a form of cultural mediation.
A way to build bridges between practices, and to enrich both the local coaching scene and my own professional approach.
