Questions & Answers about Leadership Coaching

This is what you can expect from my coaching:

In my coaching, you won’t find standardized concepts, but a methodically grounded, tailored approach. I work systemically, solution-focused, and resource-oriented. Elements from transactional analysis, humanistic psychology, and philosophical thinking flow into the process, alongside practical tools for self-reflection and goal clarification.

This is how you gain clarity about your strengths, identify limiting patterns, and develop new courses of action. Together, we’ll define achievable goals and, if you wish, uncover your personal purpose: a clear statement that gives you direction and focus, both professionally and personally.

My coaching sessions typically last 1.5 to 2 hours. A lot also happens between sessions, as the thought processes we initiate need time to mature. At times, you may receive tasks to work on in between or be accompanied by short inspiration nuggets from me. 

I work with people, their emotions, feelings, and lived realities. That’s precisely why I don’t offer off-the-shelf coaching. Modular systems don’t align with the way I work. Every coaching process is unique, shaped around you and your individual needs.

Even though I sometimes use methods in coaching that are also used in psychotherapy, the two fields are clearly to be distinguished in their objectives. I coach people with the goal of performance and self-development. Therapeutic goals are not part of my coaching.

I offer in-person coaching in the Lörrach/Basel region and in Cologne. Beyond that, I support you across the entire DACH region or wherever you are, also in English and online if needed.

A key part of coaching is developing your authentic personality. You'll gain deeper self-awareness, learn to use your strengths intentionally, recognize typical behavior patterns, and consciously work with your inner resources and stumbling blocks. This self-reflection lays the foundation for authentic, clear, and effective leadership.

At the same time, business coaching for leaders addresses very practical topics such as communication in challenging situations, building trust and a positive team culture, and dealing with mistakes and resistance.By the end of the coaching process, you’ll have your own well-equipped toolbox to support you in the everyday challenges of leadership.
