About me

As a training manager and lecturer in coaching training as well as a systemic trainer and business, team and career coach (ECA), I have been supporting people in their professional development for over 15 years. My goal is to help them master the challenges of an increasingly complex, globalized and digitalized world with confidence. In particular, I support managers and junior managers in shaping their role clearly, leading authentically and developing teams effectively.

As a certified PERMA-Lead® coach, I combine over 20 years of personal experience with positive psychology methods in leadership development. I work in a practical way: recognizing stumbling blocks, developing solutions and creating a lasting impact. As part of the programs, I offer training on authenticity, communication and conflict management – lively, interactive and directly effective in everyday life.

I support teams in making dynamics visible, understanding different needs and resolving conflicts constructively. Using systemic methods, changes in perspective and sound personality models, I create clarity, trust and cooperation that releases energy.

My coaching approach is based on the conviction that: Every person is an expert on themselves. Change occurs when resources become visible and there is courage to try out new paths. My guiding principle: “The path slips under the feet of the walker” (Martin Walser).

As co-author of the book “RADICALLY.HONEST.BLOSSOMED. BE POWERFULLY YOU” I use my own professional career as a practical example to show how coaching can help people in different life situations to overcome obstacles, recognize strengths and redesign professional paths that really make sense.
