Coaching

What is it about?

​

The starting point for coaching is your personal concern and your specific professional situation. You might want to ... 

 

• realign your career, plan your career, break new ground

• develop or grow into your role as a leader

• communicate more effectively with employees, colleagues, partners or customers

• solve conflicts faster or better than before

• make difficult decisions

• lead with energy, motivation and purpose

 

My role as a coach is to support you as a sparring partner in clarifying goals and finding solutions.

Without any obligation for you, we can discuss how coaching can be helpful in an initial telephone call or Zoom/Teams meeting.

​

I look forward to getting to know you!

Why a coaching?

​

Coaching is a goal-oriented, temporary support in difficult times, in crises, conflicts or in decision-making situations.
 

You can do a coaching because you want to look back and understand: How could this happen? How did I get into this situation?

But you can also asses the status: How do I see my (work)life at the moment? What is good as it is? What do I want to change?

And you can look ahead and align yourself with the future: Where do I want to go? What do I want to achieve in my life? How do I want to live?

​

After the coaching clients often feel strengthened, inspired and filled with new motivation.

 

When the batteries are empty, we will work on your resources and your resilience so that you can better cope with stress and burdens in your professional and private life.

We will not avoid the "crunchy" issues. Coaching is all about self-reflection, even if it becomes hard to take.

​

As your coach I will always support you in your coaching process in an appreciative, transparent and humorous way.

How does coaching work?

​

Get to know each other

In a non-binding initial meeting I will answer your questions about coaching and we will get to know each other.

​

Clarification of objectives

The coaching begins with the precise clarification of your coaching goals. What do you want to achieve with the coaching? What should change? How can I support you? Sometimes this is not so easy to say in the beginning - don´t worry, we will figure out what could be helpful.

​

Clarification phase

This phase is about understanding individual attitudes, beliefs and behaviour patterns that may lead to conflict or that you experience as limiting. Here, people often understand why they repeat a certain behaviour again and again or why they find themselves in this difficult situation.

​

Change phase

In coaching we prepare the desired change and try out together how it could work. In small steps you will gain trust in yourself and experience new patterns of thinking and behaviour. New competences will be built up. Confidence in feasibility will grow.

​

Completion of the coaching

In the final discussion we look back on the coaching process: What were you able achieve for yourself so far? How do you assess the quality of the coaching? What are next steps?

​

Which methods are used?

​

The methods I use in coaching are diverse and follow a coherent, integrative overall concept. They are tailored to the objective of the coaching, to the personality and individual needs of the client; they are selected according to the specific situation and often lead to aha-experiences.

My work is cross-school and cross-method. Systemic methods are just as much a part of my broad repertoire of methods based on many years of experience as methods that have their origins in Cognitive Behavioural Coaching or Psychodrama. In the interest of quality assurance, I orientate myself on empirically validated effective factors (Grawe 1998, 2005).
