Where real business
meets coaching.

A good sign is carrying a question around with you that never gets space in your day: a decision that won’t settle, a question that remains unanswered, a new role you haven’t quite arrived in, or a sense that what you do no longer fits who you’ve become. Coaching helps where the gap isn’t only new information but time and an environment to think. The free intro call is there to work out what fits your situation best.

Following the International Coaching Federation’s (ICF) definition, coaching works with your own answers, while consulting brings in someone else’s. In coaching, I accompany you with generative attention and questions, helping you connect with your own thinking and reach your own clarity. In consulting, I bring in my experience as a leader more directly, and together we think through concrete options. According to the European Mentoring & Coaching Council (EMCC), mentoring sits in between, sharing lived experience from a comparable role. Therapy treats mental health conditions and usually works with the past, whereas coaching assumes mental health and looks forward (ICF, 2024). My work combines the first three, because leadership questions rarely need only one of them, and depending on what you want to accomplish, we choose the right way forward together.

You bring the topic, I bring the structure and the questions. We start with the topic of your choice that you bring into that particular session and take it from there. There is no fixed agenda. My coaching is based on the Thinking Environment® and a solution-focused coaching approach. Accordingly, there is a lot of room at the start of the session for the topic you want to think through, before we jointly set goals for the session, so that at the end we can see whether we have reached them. You determine the path there; along the way, I ask you questions that lead to clear next steps, steps you formulate yourself. We can then both trust that your thinking continues after the session, continues to work between sessions, and so leads, step by step, to the changes you want.

The intro call is free. It is about getting to know each other, understanding what you actually need and seeing whether we are a fit. After that you will get a clear, individual proposal based on your goals, so you always know what to expect before anything begins.

Coaching usually runs over several sessions across a few months, with space in between, because thinking keeps working between appointments. A team workshop is a single date that often grows into longer support. Transformation work I accompany over months. We agree the specific frame together after the intro call, and you never commit beyond what was agreed.

Yes, without exception, because I work according to the strict ethical guidelines of the International Coaching Federation and the European Mentoring & Coaching Council. This means: the content of our sessions stays confidential, even when your company is paying for the coaching. That is a freedom we give ourselves anew in every session. Sponsors learn, at most, that and to what extent we are working together, never what about. In some organisations it is common practice for goals to be set over the course of the coaching engagement. These, however, are always agreed jointly with you, your sponsor, and me, and reported back accordingly within that same group. If several people from the same organisation work with me, I keep those conversations just as strictly separate and confidential.
