Business Coach Ernst Den Hartigh | TAB New Orleans Northwest

Ernst den Hartigh is the owner of the Alternative Board (TAB) New Orleans Northwest.

Ernst brings over 35 years of business management and leadership experience he gained while working in a variety of line management and C-suite positions around the world in the oil and gas industry. He came to New Orleans in 1998 working as a senior manager in Shell Upstream and was a key leader in the company’s response to Hurricane Katrina in 2005.

Ernst formed EDH Consulting in 2017 building on the expertise he developed in the areas of Risk Management and Operational excellence. He is now further expanding the scope and focus on making small business owners achieve their company and personal goals.

Ernst attended Twente University in the Netherlands, where he earned a Masters of Science in Mechanical Engineering.

As a TAB member, through the regular coaching sessions and monthly Board meetings, I gain invaluable mentor and peer support. The TAB ethos and coaching approach has helped me to plan personal and business goals and set direction. This is supported by the wealth of knowledge, skills, experience and support that is shared by the board who provide Impartial, informed and considered guidance and advice on all types of business issues, that enable me to gain fresh perspectives, identify blind spots and fill my skill gaps. Over the last twelve months TAB has effectively become my company’s non-executive board and its members my trusted colleagues.

TAB helped me to focus on the things that have made my business scalable. I was tempted to divert my attention to another endeavor, but TAB helped me determine that was not prudent. The economy, and specifically new building starts, have helped, but the degree of capitalization would not have been possible were it not for TAB. I compare my situation with another franchise owner who was in my shoes several years ago and I am way ahead, in fact we just bought him out. My revenues have doubled, and my capacity has increased four times from what it was three years ago. I have time to be with my girls, work on my hobbies and enjoy life.

My TAB coach has gotten me on track and kept me on track since 2005 toward the goals I’d originally stated. I’m totally confident that we’ll continue to realize the vision that I have for the company in our second decade.
