One-on-one coaching
A survey in Germany in 2024 showed that only 29.1 % of leaders were female, i.e. not even every third leader was a woman.*

As a former executive in a male-dominated industry, I am passionate about gender equality. I help women to increase their influence and take the next step in their career, whether their first one towards leadership or greater responsibility in a current leadership role.
means:
- making your competencies visible
- building up your impact strategically
- not making yourself seem smaller than you really are.
With my personal experience and expertise, I offer you a structured method combining ‚head and heart‘ to help you follow your path and enable your sustainable growth.
Does any of this sound familiar?
You have enjoyed a good school education, you have completed your university studies successfully and have been working for some years. You are ambitious, always go the extra mile in your job and deliver good results – but why does nobody recognize this? You give it your all and you get good feedback for it. Yet, when it’s time for a promotion, you are overlooked.
You feel invisible.
You prefer to stay in the background and you do – by no means – want to come across as being pushy or venturing outside your comfort zone. Why should you already be ready to make the next step? And why should be considered for bigger roles at all? Are you good enough, are really as good as others say? Things could just remain the way they are.
You are modest and do not recognise your own potential.
You give the impression of being confident but deep down you doubt whether you are really as good as the others think you are. When you see a job advertisement, you hesitate because you think that you do not fulfil all the requirements for the role or that you are not qualified enough for it. Are you really ready for the next step in your career? Are you good enough?
You doubt yourself and your abilities; you do not value youverself.
If any of the above situations sound familiar to you, you have come to the right place. Book an informal discovery call right away. It’s free of charge!
I am aware that men, too, can feel invisible, doubt their own abilities, and be too modest. For this reason, I definitely do not want to exclude them as a target group for coaching. When it comes to leadership team development, I generally work with mixed-gender teams.

Let’s have a chat
We first get to know each other in a personal conversation by phone or video call. In a safe, confidential setting, we will talk about your needs, see if we are a good fit, and explore what a potential cooperation could look like.
This initial conversation is non-binding and, of course, free of charge.
What happens next?
If we decide to work together, we will arrange several sessions depending on your coaching needs.
These can take place virtually via video conference or face-to-face in a private and quiet setting. I am open to both approaches. A session usually lasts 1 to 1½ hours. If we meet in person for the first session, it may well take longer. We can discuss the details in the discovery call.
We will plan sufficient time between sessions to allow for new insights to sink in and for you to try out the strategies we have talked about.
Each coaching session is tailored to your individual needs and takes place in a safe and supportive environment.
I offer two versions of my own your power one-on-one sessions. Both cover the following:
- Sharpening your professional profile
- Mobilising your resources
- Dealing with limiting beliefs
- Increasing your visibility within the company
- Developing a concise elevator pitch as the foundation for achieving your personal career goals
own your power Start
- 4 coaching sessions of 1.5 hours each over a period of 3 months
- The Start package gets you familiar with limiting beliefs, values, goals and strengths.
own your power Intensive
- 9 coaching sessions over a period of up to 6 months, each session lasts 1.5 – 2 hours
- own your power Intensive gives you the opportunity to focus in depth on limiting beliefs, self-doubt and uncertainty and allows you sufficient time to try out what you have learnt and to strengthen your visibility.
This is how I work with you
I am empathetic and open-minded, and I care about my coachees. It is important for me to create a safe environment, in which you are seen, heard and feel understood. I will accompany you on your journey with calmness, clarity and with ease. Always respectful and as equals.
Should you be interested, I am happy to share my own story and be your sparring partner. My coaching approach combines my experience in business and personal life with sound methodology. I am convinced that mutual trust is the key to successful personal development because it encourages you to discover new perspectives and to become aware of your own power.
We can hold the coaching sessions in the office space in my own home or if you prefer, I can organize a coaching space outside. In both cases, we will work undisturbed and in a safe environment.
We can of course also have the coaching sessions virtually via video call.
