Two different meanings
Firstly it stands for “the next new thing”. It is more than an update or extension of existing models / techniques, often referred to as 2.0 or 3.0.
​
Nextnova® goes beyond that. It is something truly new. Coaching is seen separately from consultancy. Where coaching is about non-directive techniques and the coach is not necessarily a subject matter expert in the area of the coachee, consultancy has more an advisory role, where the consultants is familiar with the work of the coachee. Besides that functions like counselling, sparring partner are often seen as separate disciplines. Nextnova® uniquely combines these disciplines to provide a holistic service to help coachees in the most effective and sustainable way. The combination of models and techniques is what the coaching clients today would like to see.* Not just only a person that asks questions or gives advice, but a combination depending on the topic, experiences and requirements of the client. That makes it the 'next nova'.
Secondly, a nova is a star that starts shining brightly on the sky. The nextnova® methodology makes you the next brightly shining star in your business environment. That helps to get unleash potential and maximum performance leading to more job satisfaction, be motivated, to get more appreciation, to raise awareness and to boost your career.

*research by J. Drieman (2019) has shown that business professionals of today expect a combination of directive and indirective techniques to develop themselves.
The Benelux Office for Intellectual Property (BOIP) has officially acknowledged and accepted the brandname nextnova® under the category KI35 (business consultancy) and KI41 (educational coaching service for management consultancy) for the next 10 years.
