About me
“Between stimulus and response lies a space. In that space lies our power to choose our response. In our reaction lies our development and our freedom.”
(Viktor Frankl, 1905-1997, neurologist & psychiatrist, founder of logotherapy and existential analysis).
What sets me apart from others:
Scientific principles are important to me. My psychological background makes people’s thoughts and actions understandable. I know the challenges of the VUCA world and yours as a leader or employee in such a system. “Change” is not just an English word to me, it’s a process. My interventions and tools are proven and I know how to use them. I take you seriously and do not let go. We work at eye level. I believe in the systemic and solution-oriented approach. I am pragmatic and goal-oriented. Our successes are measurable. And it’s fun too 😉
