Understanding customer wishes is our approach
We attach great importance to respectful and confidential communication at eye level and cooperation tailored to your needs. Our approach or philosophy: listen to understand, not to answer. Of course, we are familiar with all kinds of KPIs or other relevant figures and topics in the Business Coaching from.
These figures will also change through our collaboration, if that's your goal. However, you, as an individual, remain at the heart of everything we do. Ultimately, the way you think, feel, and act influences your results. With our multifaceted expertise, we will guide you step by step toward your goal.
Only when we have been able to help you is our goal achieved; that is the only philosophy that counts for us.
Our approach: helping people
The way we do this is through questions rather than statements. You already carry within you all the answers to the questions that concern you. Our role as coaches is to make these answers visible and tangible through critical questioning. This is nothing other than a process of awareness that is initiated through collaboration.
Some people come to us because they need guidance. Our approach is to help people, not to make a profit!
In these situations, we gladly rely on scientifically sound and practically established tests and profiles. Abilities and strengths that lie dormant within you can be easily identified and illustrated here.
Furthermore, every strength can also be a weakness. The balance of your qualities and how you utilize them ultimately determines your success in life. We make your success our mission and will accompany you on your journey! Coaching begins with a conscious decision to make a change.
What does coaching cost? Our approach is transparent pricing
The costs for coaching can vary depending on the type of Coaching, Location, experience, and qualifications of the coach, as well as the duration and frequency of sessions, vary. Generally speaking, however, the cost of individual coaching in Germany can range from €80 to €700 per hour. Some coaches, however, charge more or less.
Group coaching sessions may have different prices depending on the size of the group and the duration of the coaching.
Some coaches also offer packages that include multiple sessions, which are often cheaper than individual sessions.
However, it is important to note that coaching costs often have to be borne by the clients themselves, as many health insurance companies in Germany do not cover coaching expenses. It is therefore advisable to discuss and clarify the costs with the coach before starting the coaching process.,
Whether reimbursement by the employer or other institutions is possible. Our approach is to find a price that works for each of our clients who need our support.
Transformation with and through people
We believe that everyone holds their own happiness in their hands. We are convinced that everyone has the potential to change themselves and their environment. Our approach is to contribute our expertise for the benefit of our clients, proactively and driven by our own motivation.
That's why we talk to our clients on equal terms, confidentially and in a needs-oriented way.
We provide the necessary foundation, because without fertile soil, life cannot flourish. We support you in developing yourself, in whatever direction that may lead.
Therefore, our focus is not on numbers, but on targeted reflection. That's our philosophy! Read our article on this topic as well. Systemic coaching.
Successful coaching does not depend on numbers
We are only interested in numbers if they align with our approach, are relevant to you, and correspond to our overall philosophy. We repeatedly observe that certain beliefs or goals we hold are compensatory mechanisms that only exacerbate the underlying problem or original situation.
Together we delve deep into the world of ourselves. A world that exists only once.
You are unique and we appreciate your value. There is only one thing that is important. Also take a look at our article about selective demarketing I would like to add a well-known quote from Che Guevara.
What you make of it is, as always, up to you: Let the world change you, and you can change the world! In our Blog Is there more information on the topic of demarketing or the Sense from coaching.
Scientific foundations of our coaching approach
Our coaching approach is based on three scientifically validated pillars: systemic therapy according to Watzlawick and Satir, solution-focused brief therapy according to Steve de Shazer, and positive psychology according to Martin Seligman.
This combination allows us to understand both the individual thought and behavior patterns of our clients and to consider the systemic interactions in the professional and private context.
All our coaches hold at least two certifications – from the International Coaching Federation (ICF) and the German Federal Association for Coaching (DBVC). Furthermore, many of our coaches possess additional qualifications in neuromanagement, organizational development, or clinical psychology.
This scientific foundation distinguishes us from mere motivational trainers or self-proclaimed life coaches who work without sound training.
In practice, this means that every intervention we use is supported by research findings. We utilize validated diagnostic tools such as the MBTI procedure, DISC profiles, and 360-degree feedback to accurately assess your initial situation.
Based on this, we develop an individual Coaching plan with customized methods, that delivers measurable results - not vague promises.
The coaching process: from initial analysis to sustainable change
Step 1: Free initial consultation and needs analysis
In a 30-minute initial meeting, we clarify your situation, your goals and your expectations together. We listen, ask specific questions and give you an honest assessment of whether and how coaching can help you. Not everyone needs coaching - and if we are not the right solution for you, we will tell you openly.
Step 2: Coach matching and assignment clarification
Based on your profile and your goals, we select from our network of 35 certified coaches will select the right expert for you. Whether you are a Management coaching, a Professional reorientation or a Executive Coaching we will find the right sparring partner.
Step 3: Coaching sessions and reflection work
The actual work takes place in regular 60- to 90-minute sessions – either in our offices in Frankfurt am Main or in a hybrid format via video. Between sessions, you will receive reflection exercises to ensure the transfer of the material into your everyday life.
Because sustainable change doesn't happen during the coaching session, but in the moments that follow.
Step 4: Measuring success and closing
At the end of each mandate, we measure progress together: Have your goals been achieved? What changes are measurable? What have you learned about yourself? This structured measurement of success is part of our quality standard and ensures that our coaching is not open-ended, but leads to concrete results.

What are coaching methods?
Teaching materials, techniques, formats, interventions, and methods are often lumped together and used interchangeably. This is fine if you're looking for general information. Teaching is a specific field. Most methods have one or more originators. It's possible that a method evolved over time and lost its originator.
Teaching methods follow a theory or an experience, e.g. about man and his environment. CoachingTools, techniques, and formats are found within these "overarching" coaching methods. They serve as a guideline. This page lists coaching methods in alphabetical order and is regularly updated.
If you can't find a method, browse our collection – you might find it under a different name, or it may be added soon. Check back often. We also offer a list of coaching tools and exercises.
What is the autonomous coaching approach?
The autonomous method is based on the constructivist idea that people perceive and construct the relationships within their domestic system from within and can bring about desired changes freely, i.e., autonomously. Clients are free problem solvers. With this strategy, the responsibility for the outcome lies with the client.
The coachee bears process responsibility. The coach observes and formulates hypotheses about the coachee's life. Subsequently, the coach encourages self-reflection through comments, systemic questions, or Socratic dialogues, without judging or influencing the coachee.
What is the authoritarian coaching approach?
Authoritative trainers diagnose and prescribe. The instructor must be able to diagnose. He is responsible for the outcome as he controls the path of the response. This method uses the techniques of contract counseling and NLP.
What makes the coaching approach of Ihr Coaching Institut special?
Our approach is systemic-integrative: We combine evidence-based methods from systemic coaching, cognitive behavioral psychology and neuroscientific findings - individually tailored to each client.
Is the coaching approach scientifically sound?
Yes, all the methods we use are based on scientific research. Our coaches undergo continuous further training and are guided by the latest findings in coaching research.
How do I choose the right approach for me?
In a free initial consultation, we analyze your situation, goals and personality. Based on this, we recommend the optimal methodological approach and the right coach from our network.
Is the approach adapted during the coaching?
Yes, our approach is flexible and is continuously adapted to your development and needs. Regular reflection loops ensure that the coaching remains effective.
