Coaching & Enablement

Coaching that truly challenges

I don't coach in the sense of 'How does that feel?' – but in the sense of 'What are you going to change right now?' My approach is direct, sometimes confrontational – tough on the issue, respectful to the person. That's demanding. And that's exactly why it works. The other person must be willing to change. Those who are go further than they expected. Those who aren't are in the wrong place with me.

From the individual to the team

I support CEOs, CTOs and leaders in strategic decisions and change processes – just as much as project teams that need to learn to work in a structured and self-responsible way. This includes agile methodology: epics, user stories, sprints – not as theory, but as lived practice. I have led teams of up to 25 people, distributed across multiple countries and time zones – Switzerland, Vietnam, Portugal, India. Cultural differences are not obstacles, but raw material. Coaching doesn't end in the meeting. True enablement means people can continue without me afterwards – in companies, in projects, in Kenya, in the community. Wherever people want to build something together, they sometimes need someone who clearly says what is.
