Coaching Cologne & Business Coaching: Sustainable for the executive
Ex-DAX Expertise für Medien, Versicherungen & Industrie. 100% Diskretion. 0% Klüngel. Köln ist eine Stadt der kurzen Wege und engen Netzwerke. Das ist gut fürs Geschäft, aber tödlich für neutrale Beratung. Wer mit jedem „per Du“ ist, kann keine harten Wahrheiten aussprechen. Wir bieten Ihnen den Blick von außen. Unser Institut ist nicht Teil der Kölner Seilschaften.
Why you need an external coach in Cologne
If you have a problem in Cologne, half the city will know about it tomorrow - when you choose the wrong advisor.
We guarantee Hermetic discretion:
- For media makers: We understand the pressure from the public (through our TV experts), but we are not part of the broadcaster's policy.
- For corporations: We support the digital transformation of the insurance industry - with the experience of ex-Siemens board members, not with theoretical models.
Coaching for the cathedral city
| Industry | Typical clients | Our focus |
| Media & TV | Producers & Presenters | Performance under pressure. Confidence in front of the camera and in the boardroom. |
| Insurances | Board members & division heads | Transformation of conservative structures. Leading in the digital turnaround. |
| Chemistry & Industry | Plant Manager & Managing Director | Change management and conflict resolution in complex matrix organizations. |
We know the spotlight
Communication is a top priority in Cologne. We have professionals who don't just talk about it, but have lived it.
- Claudia Schick: Over 20 years as a TV presenter (ARD). She trains your presence for the big performance or the tough negotiation.
- Heinrich von Pierer: Knows how to steer corporations (like the Cologne-based insurers/industry) through troubled waters.
- Prof. Dr. Karsten Machholz: Expert in organizational development - ideal for structural change in the Rhineland.
Not a coincidence, but a system: your path to cooperation
In the Rhineland, people value open communication - we value measurable results. Our onboarding for managers is 100 % discreet and time-efficient.
Step 1: The diagnosis (free strategy meeting)
In a 30-minute video call (or by phone), we analyze your initial situation. We clarify whether you need media training for your next TV appearance or hard sparring for the transformation of your insurance sector.
Step 2: Expert matching
No nice chit-chat. We'll match you with an expert from our 35-strong board who knows your sector (media, insurance, industry) and the reality of the Group from their own experience.
Step 3: The chemistry check & start
You get to know your coach without obligation. If the fit is right, we start the mandate: either absolutely neutrally and discreetly in our offices in Frankfurt, at your premises (e.g. at the Hyatt or Excelsior) or via our secure remote connections.
