"Hintsa, a global leader in high-performance coaching for top executives, business professionals and athletes, has created a signature model „The Circle of Better Life“, which helps you to cope with stress factors in your daily busy life."

— Forbes

“People for sure won’t understand it, naturally, because they see it from a distance, but she [Angela Cullen, Hintsa Performance Coach] has been one of the greatest things that’s happened to me in my life.”

— Lewis Hamilton, Seven-time Formula 1 World Champion

"One of the most hotly discussed events at the World Economic Forum was a session on sleep and peak performance. Hintsa's session was so oversubscribed that the WEF had scheduled a second one for the next day."

— Financial Times

"Hintsa helped us develop tools for managing health and wellbeing as a leader, and hence also as a role model. I can recommend Hintsa coaching to all management teams wanting to boost their performance and quality of life."

— Frank Korsström, Accenture's Nordic Managing Director

"Hintsa's method is based on a simple idea: a better quality of life leads to better performance. Instead of teaching sales techniques or productivity boosting, Hintsa tutors its clients in how to live better, healthier and more fulfilling lives."

— Monocle Magazine

"In order to be able to focus and give your maximum, it is important to have the right professionals around you. I've got a team of people working hard to help me achieve my goals and pushing me forward."

— Sebastian Vettel, Four-time Formula 1 World Champion

”Conflict resolution is not a sprint, but a marathon. In most cases, the results of the work will not be visible until years later. Hintsa's support helped us to reflect upon the topics of wellbeing and the importance of recovery.”

— Maija Sura, Crisis Management Initiative's HR Manager
