„It’s the moment of rapport and openness that makes an effective encounter possible.“
Key Speaker
Lectures and speeches are wonderful opportunities for effective encounters
I offer lectures on the topics of change management, leadership and motivation. In doing so, it is particularly one thing that motivates me: to present well-founded, theoretically and practically based contents with humor and depth, making people remember them. Only if the audience is touched contextually and emotionally, there is a realization and the topic remains in memory.
My lectures are spiced with many practical experiences, which I was able to collect as a manager, coach and trainer during my work in more than 15 countries.
Entertainment is important to me, but it must not be self-purpose.
So I clearly set myself apart from lectures, which are more about the speaker rather than the content and topics that their listeners have to deal with.
Coaching
Effective encounters in coaching lead to the desirable further development with respect to vocational and personal issues
My procedure is oriented on what you need in order to benefit from the effective coaching. My coaching is effective since it is competent and based on clearly defined goals, trust, humor and commitment. Together, we will find out at a first interview what you wish to achieve and how I can support you in this process.
Then we will determine the further procedure (number of appointments and duration of the process). An initial relevant progress can already be seen after 3-5 conversations. If you wish to expand your own thought and behavior repertoire in the long term, we often suggest that you attend 8-10 appointments.
Together we determine what suits you.
A successful coaching means mutual responsibility
With your openness, your time and your readiness to work on your development even between the coaching dates, you will contribute to the success. This success is not to be determined in every detail beforehand, but it arises in dialogue.
From appointment to appointment, from topic to topic
I will bring in my competence according to your needs and open new perspectives by asking questions and providing feedback. Where appropriate, I will make a critical analysis and openly discuss my impressions with you. Apart from numerous educational trainings and certifications, the quality of my coaching is characterized by leadership experience and the many coaching meetings, which I was able to organize with my clients thanks to my years of expertise as a coach.
Organisational design
Effective encounters shape the culture of a company and are, vice versa, shaped by the company’s culture.
If you wish to keep organizations focused on the future, you need basic and comprehensive knowledge on how culture arises in organizations and by what it can be shaped.
For this purpose, it is necessary to have an eye on the company, its markets, its environment and its employees and to emotionally and analytically comprehend them. On this basis, we will jointly create design systems for successful changing processes.
These include diverse state-of-the-art methods of change management, corporate communications, event design and the moderation of strategic workshops or town hall meetings.
Team development
Effective encounters in teams form the basis for successful cooperation
Teams have common goals that are achieved through the contribution of everyone.
Team development makes it possible to recognize differences and similarities, establish confidence and make common interests become apparent.
A successful team development at first reveals the specifics of your team, respects the differences and determines what topics you have to concretely address in order to be more successful as a team. An effective team development thereby arises as a result of a high diagnostic competence on the basis of which we recognize what internal or external factors lead to the current behavior of the team.
Together with you, I identify the success factors for an even better cooperation of your team. These may lie in the field of human relations, the role distribution or the objective set by the team.

Present publication – a case study:
Much of what motivates me is a result of encounters with other people
Who is this consultant and why do my clients want to work with me?
My particular strength lies in combining skills, which is done by only a few other coaches.
Through my studies of social sciences, for example, I developed an enormously helpful capability of abstraction, so that I can quickly identify and name dynamics.
I take pleasure in revealing my broad knowledge as manager, I have already experienced everything conceivable during my work in groups and have gathered a lot of experience in many projects as an internal or external consultant in more than 15 countries.
This – combined with my friendly, approachable, sociable and pleasant manner – makes me an ideal contact person for diverse topics.
What personality traits characterize my work?
The sensitive coach
I am able to empathize with other people and give them the feeling that I really understand them. I am successful in doing so since I am willing to reveal something also about myself, since I make myself touchable and share my own emotional experiences which are difficult for me.
My work is characterized by the relatedness to the person opposite me and my care in communicating with him/her.
The considerate coach with solid theoretical knowledge
My encounters are characterized by interpreting carefully received signals and putting them in relation to my very broad theoretical knowledge base, so that they become tangible and can be dealt with.
The pragmatic coach
by a high degree of pragmatism, which does not represent any disdain for the other person’s situation but is a goal-oriented dissociation from a mere focus on problems.
In this way, my clients gain the necessary distance in order to dissolve the supposed severity of the respective situation and let new possibilities arise.
The language lover
Language is the reification of our thoughts. It enables us to have an even deeper access to our thoughts and emotions. Our language determines our thinking and is therefore highly effective and somehow magical.
It drives me to spark the magic of language.
I find it particularly effective to transform highly complex contexts into the respective language of the person opposite me. So I can not only transport these in a way that is easy to understand, I can also gain an insight into the person’s world of experience. And it does not play a role with what kind of person and profession I deal with.
The human being
In my different fields of activity, two hearts merge which also characterize me as a person.
On the one hand, I love to work highly successfully and highly professionally, with a clear focus on implementation.
On the other hand, it is also very important for me that there is also room for personal development, true encounter and moments of relaxation, reflection and playing.
Effective encounters in my life are characterized by the fact that I unify both sides and that I am grateful for every trace that a person – whether client or private – leaves in my life or which I can leave in another person’s life.
There are important requirements for effective encounters and long-term changes: a sincere interest in people, curiosity and the readiness to learn from the diverse experiences of one’s professional life and use these in the consultation.
There are important requirements for effective encounters and long-term changes: a sincere interest in people, curiosity and the readiness to learn from the diverse experiences of one’s professional life and use these in the consultation.
I combine these experiences with solid theoretical and practically tested skills on how to make changes effective in the long term.
