I help you to get out of your comfort zone, learn new skills, and cultivate your strengths.

learning
My training is tailor-made and focuses on immersive learning experiences.
From digital 1:1s to on-site training for entire teams – together we find the right solution.
Communication covers a broad field of topics, psychological methods, and sociological theory.
To get the most out of a single training session or a series of trainings for you or your teams, good planning is of the utmost importance. Focussing on a selection of specific topics and working intensively with either individuals or small groups will bring the best results for everyone.
My training is a combination of scientific research, easy-to-apply methods, insights from decades of working in the communication industry, and interactive experiments with all participants.
Nowadays I focus mainly on presentation and conflict training, but I also have extensive experience in the fields of brand strategy and storytelling.
My training focus
Life’s a Pitch
Learn how to present and communicate with maximum impact. Captivate your audience through a wide range of verbal and non-verbal communication skills.
-
You will learn how to have more fun and success presenting ideas. No matter if it’s a sales pitch, a Keynote at a conference or during a company wide townhall meeting.
But: What makes a great presentation? How do you turn ideas and facts into exciting stories? How do you design slides that stick instead of boring your audience to death? How do you communicate with curiosity and confidence? How do you interact with your audience? How do you deal with nervousness and anxiety?
During this training, you will find answers to these questions.
-
Everyone who wants to feel more confident and at ease while presenting.
People who do a lot of public speaking and want to refine their skills.
People who need very specific training before talking at a conference or an important client pitch.
-
Because you want to convince and excite people. To fund your projects. To hire you. To go skydiving. To try that new pizza spot. Everything and anything.
Everybody has to present at some point in their life. Some love it, some loathe it. I believe that it can be a lot of fun and nobody has to be afraid of it.
-
I offer a wide range of models, tailored to your needs, e.g.:
1:1 training to work on specific aspects of your skills
Small groups of 3-4 people where we get together every second week for some hours to in-depth training
Two day focus training for groups of around 10 people.
Special trainings for bigger groups where I work with a good friend of mine, the actor Jacob Matschenz.
It all depends on what you want to work on, how much time you want to spend, and how big your budget is.
Chemistry & Conflict
Learn fundamental psychological and sociological insights to become a better communicator. Leave assumptions and projections behind – communicate with clarity and empathy.
-
You will learn to get better at feedback, during conflicts and negotiations.
What do I want? How do I express it properly? What do the others want? How do we find a common denominator? How do we deal with conflict?
During this training, you will find answers to these questions. You will learn about Carl Rogers’ Active Listening, Rosenberg’s Non-Violent Communication, Schulz von Thun’s communication models, and how methods from systemic coaching and positive psychology can help you become a better communicator.
-
People who work with people. From project managers to teachers, leaders, to everyone in HR.
Everyone in the public relations and communication industry.
-
Because, as Paul Watzlawick so wonderfully said: ‘One cannot not communicate’.
We all communicate — verbally and nonverbally — on a daily basis. Yet communication is complicated and often leads to unwanted results, anger, and conflict. Understanding how it works and becoming more aware and capable should be in everyone’s interest.
-
I do everything from very specific 1:1 training, to small groups of 3-4 people where we get together e.g. every second week for some hours to in-depth training for groups of max. 10 people.
I also do special trainings with a colleague of mine who is a certified mediator.
It all depends on what you want to work on, how much time you want to spend, and how big your budget is.
