Lauri Koittola
I help startup leaders master their inner game and their team dynamics—so their companies don’t implode from the inside.
Coaching for when the outside looks fine, but the inside feels off.
I’ve spent the past decade coaching individuals, teams and organisations. For the past four years, I’ve worked exclusively with startup founders and teams as Executive Director and Head Coach at Boost, one of Finland’s most active entrepreneurship communities. Before that, I co-founded a startup myself — so I understand the pressure from both sides of the table.
My coaching is grounded in an eclectic, evidence-based approach — combining depth, structure, and real-world practicality. I hold a Professional Certificate in Executive Coaching from Henley Business School. I have also certification as Advanced Solution-Focused Practitioner of Coaching in Helsinki Brief Therapy Institute Ltd. My first coaching certification was MCID Certification in Team Coaching & Specialist Qualification in Management in Team Academy Global.
