Strengths and values based
individual coaching
Coaching provides an invaluable space for personal development.
Personal development comes from within. Self-awareness sets this process in motion. Through conscious exploration, I help you shape your sense of self, strengthen your sense of purpose, and identify untapped resources and strengths. As your values, beliefs, skills and behaviors become aligned, you increase your emotional intelligence, resilience and ability to work effectively under pressure, in today's work situations, in unfamiliar, fast-changing work environments.
When you
-
are at a crossroad of your professional path and need to take a decision,
-
you repeatedly encounter situations that seem to push you to your limits and you want to change
-
you like to uncover your key strengths and areas for growth, reach new goals
if you embrace change,
I am happy to support you on your journey.

Analysis of current career status
Career Fitness Profiler
Find out more about your career fitness: your values, attitudes and your energy-stress-level.
This scientifically validated questionnaire analyses
3 CORE ELEMENTS
of your career components:
Career Values
What drives people in their careers, what motivates them? This model uses 12 subjective career motivators, categorised based on the most influential contemporary motivation theory. They will highlight the conditions to make future career moves a success and pitfalls that you should be aware of.
Career Attitudes
Your career attitudes allow you to take control of your own career, to actively manage your professional development. This involves adaptability, goal orientation, self-initiation, and mobility. They are important predictors of your personal career success and enhanced well-being.
Energy-stress balance
To what extent does existing work put pressure on you? Permanent "overstraining" or "understraining" are often the cause of burnout and/or "boreout", both creeping processes that slowly deplete your energy reserves.
The Energy-Stress balance provides a snapshot of your current career energy and identifies areas where adjusting pace will sustain long term performance and energy.
CAREER FITNESS INDEX
Based on these three models, the Career Fitness Profiler can also make a statement about your general Career Fitness by three underlying indicators:
Career focus
-> to which extent you have a clear career orientation
Career strength
-> to which extent you are able to actively manage your career
Career energy
-> to which extent you have the energy to take your career a step further.

You have lost your job or your position has been made eliminated?
What is your current job situation?

Selling yourself may seem like the biggest hurdle in the application process.
But you can pat yourself on the back: if you have made it to the interview. You have already achieved a lot and probably prevailed over many other shortlisted candidates. Good on you!

My Coaching
(German / English)
Get-to-know & Order Clarification
Our first meeting is a get-to-know-you session. This "taster coaching session" gives me the opportunity to understand what your concern, your topic is, what you aim to achieve and what your desired end goal is. You decide if my coaching makes sense and if I am the right person for your topic.
Design our Alliance
Once you agreed to work with me, and before we finally start our coaching, we need to design our coaching relationship, agree on
logistic details as timing & frequency,
payment & cancellation
our commitment
privacy
"rules" for coach & coachee
professional boundaries.
This will be the base of our coaching and be fixed in our contract.
When appropriate and needed, we might need to re-define parts of these agreement along our coaching journey.
Ongoing Coaching
Let's start your journey.
Transformation happens, when we shift limiting beliefs, change perspective and live in alignment with our life purpose, vision and values.
As a Co-Active Coach, my commitment is to evoke transformation in my clients, to help them explore, change, grow and thrive.
Completion
We come to the end of our coaching relationship when we completed our mission may it that your topic is solved
or your goals achieved, when you are complete.
