Profile & Experience
I am a trainer and coach for communication, leadership, and empowerment for companies. I offer over 25 years of experience in international human resources development, training, and consulting.
I have built up my expertise in medium-sized companies and international corporations, both in Germany and abroad. I am familiar with the challenges of modern working environments from practical experience and know how important clear communication and productive self-management are for successful collaboration.
Today, I work from Karlsruhe for companies both nationally and internationally.
My guiding principle: discover, develop, grow!
We all know training courses where we learned a lot, had fun, gained inspiration and returned to work feeling motivated. However: how much of what we wanted to take away from the training course and apply to our everyday work did we actually implement?
All to often: way too little.
That's why I create learning scenarios in my coaching and training sessions that enable us to do just that.
One-day, two day or even three day trainings all too often fall short. Because change takes time, space, and practice in the everyday work environment.
That's why I work with modular training courses that combine knowledge, exercises, and reflection. My goal: to empower people to master difficult situations with confidence—without losing themselves. Learn more
My training courses are lively and practical. I welcome lightness, but it is never an end in itself. For me, depth is always part of the equation—as are clear structures and the individual paths for each participant.
Training with side effects: Change and growth have an impact not only on your professional life, but also on your private life.
Areas of expertise
- Communication in companies: teams, managers, customer-facing employees
- Empowerment & leadership skills: clarity, confident action, emotional strength
- Conflict and communication skills: from difficult conversations to effective conversational leadership

How do I work?
- Individualized & hands-on: Whether you are a manager, project leader, or service employee, I meet people where they are.
- Modular & sustainable: Short impulses combined with room for integration. This allows new ideas to be internalized and applied.
- Lively & structured: My training courses are interactive, humorous, and in-depth—and always geared toward practical application.
- German & just as good in English
Training sessions at your premises are complemented by transfer phases to ensure that new insights are not only gained but tanslated into action – your return on investment!
