“Today, leadership is only justified if it aims at the self-leadership of the people entrusted to its care.”

Götz Werner

Why?

To foster a positive and effective leadership culture throughout the company, the commitment of senior management is an absolute must. Ideally, this is followed by a facilitative process in which needs of the entire organization are identified and potentials unfolded.

There is a wide variety of organizations that operate and work very differently. They often have similar questions about leadership:

How do we want to lead?
How do we enable self-organization?
Which leadership approaches suit us?
How can we best empower and equip our leaders?

I provide support in finding individual and appropriate solutions for leadership development. Whether it’s a large corporation, a start-up or something in between – it’s all about people. People want to take on responsibility and do something meaningful. The task of leadership is to create conducive framework conditions for this.

Live Online Impulses

Live online impulses offer short, condensed knowledge transfer on important topics, as well as the opportunity to ask questions and briefly exchange experiences with people who are concerned about similar topics. Due to the format (2.5 hours including a break), they can be easily integrated into everyday professional life.

Recognising and reducing unconscious bias

This impulse offers answers to the following questions:

What is Unconscious Bias and how does it affect us?
How can I recognise and reduce bias?
What do I have to consider as a manager in order to avoid discrimination and to promote equality and participation?

Group size: 10 participants

This session is held in German.
English formats upon request.

Gender-sensitive communication in training & facilitation

Anyone working in leadership development cannot avoid the topic of diversity. We want to help ensure that all people feel seen, welcomed and treated equally in training and interactive events. To achieve this, mindful, gender-sensitive language is an important building block. Unfortunately, the topic is very polarising and unsettling. In this impulse, we want to provide more knowledge and confidence on the topic. Participants will get some initial ideas on how they can live a self-evident and relaxed gender sensitivity in their events.

Bringing along your own questions and experiences is explicitly encouraged.
