Ralu E. Nistor-Lustermans is the owner and director of ERNL, running a portfolio career which allows her to fulfil her passion for developing people centred and purpose driven organisations.
She is a certified internal auditor with over 20 years of experience in internal audit in various multinational companies and an ICF accredited coach with over a decade of experience in business and leadership coaching.
Ralu’s passion lays in connecting the dots between people, process, behaviours, and results, and creating nurturing and efficient work environments. She is often engaged in conversations about how the culture and employee’s behaviours impact on the organisation’s strategy and performance, corporate governance, board, and team dynamics or she is busy helping clients unlocking their hidden potential, and enabling better collaboration in diverse teams.
When not busy working, Ralu is enjoying life as a mother, stepmother, wife, and as a long-life curious learner. To rebalance her energies from daily life demands, Ralu loves walking in nature, riding the bike through Dutch windy countryside, climbing a mountain to its top, or riding her vespa to meet up with friends for a chat.
A romanian-british citizen, born in a beautiful montain area in Romania, Ralu lived and worked in several European countries in the last two decades.
In the Netherlands
In the U.K.
In France
In Ireland

“In my twenties I though success was securing an Erasmus scholarship, a work experience abroad, and climbing corporate ladder.
Twenty years later having climbed some of the corporate ladder’s steps and having walked though various life’s paths in my various roles, as a professional, as a wife, daughter, step-mother, mother and friend, success for me now looks very different. It is about the possibility to decide on what I spend my time, raising resilient, compassionate and happy children, doing work that is meaningful to me and has a truly positive impact on the world around me, the people, the community & the organisations I work with.”
“Achieving our goals is like climbing a mountain, for me.
It requires physical and mental determination, reframing our stories and limiting beliefs, zooming in and zooming out, before we take the best next step towards the top, whatever we consider the top to be.” – Ralu
