Procedure and Requests
Preliminary Meeting
A successful interaction between coach and coachee is based upon mutual trust and sympathy. Therefore I always begin my coaching with a preliminary meeting free of charge. We get to know each other, discuss your issues and needs as well as goals, agenda, and extent of the sessions. Furthermore I outline my methods and procedures and we also agree on terms and conditions.
Sessions and Intervals
In my experience, a consultation comprises between five to ten sessions of 60 minutes each. Coaching is an interactive process and demands your active participation not only during the individual sessions but also between them. Therefore, at the end of each session we agree on tasks for you to work on until we meet again. This enables you to reflect on more complex issues at home. You will have the opportunity to integrate new insights into your everyday life through changed behavior and trying out new strategies. This being the only path towards effective learning and change.
Career counseling sessions will usually take place once every two to three weeks. After a more intensive entry phase the intervals between the sessions can be longer, one to two months.
Online Coaching
Normally my sessions will be held online via video especially since most of my international clients are located worldwide. In individual cases we can set up our initial meeting in person if you live in the Munich area. It might surprise some, but my more than 10 years’ experience coaching online has proven that this format not only works well but can be as effective as meetings in person – also in more complex situations.
Trainings and Webinars
Training programs will be discussed with the client individually for each target group determining content, scope, conditions, and if necessary covering travel costs.
Requests
Since I am usually in coaching sessions or trainings I can only seldomly be reached via phone. Therefore I kindly ask you to send me your request via e‑mail. Here you briefly state your issue and current job situation enclosing your CV. Normally I respond within 24 hours suggesting a date for a preliminary phone meeting.
