Large Group Events,
1/2-2 days, 30-300+ people
Whether as a one-day workshop or as a kick-off for a company process: a professionally led large group event activates all employees to make use of the so-called 'swarm intelligence'. This can be helpful, for example, in developing the corporate culture, selecting upcoming focal points or topics such as improved customer orientation. The interactive dialogue in a World Café or open space allows participants to engage intensively with the topics in focus. Motivation increases and a common ground is created. At the end, concrete results are achieved and the next steps are identified. A precise needs assessment and a detailed concept are the be-all and end-all. The design is customised to the specific situation and questions. The large group event is not an individual measure with entertainment value but part of an overall process.
Leadership - peer to peer,
2 days
Am I (still) on the right track as a manager? Where exactly do I and my team have potential for improvement? These fundamental questions are often neglected in hectic everyday life. With practical management experience in your backpack, it is worth taking a more detached view of the situation to avoid getting caught up in the hamster wheel. You will look at the leadership role models that have helped and hindered you. In addition, you benefit from new ideas and approaches from other managers and from the leadership coach for leadership decisions that otherwise often have to be made alone in everyday life. You will gain confidence and persuasiveness through the process. Strengthen your leadership personality.
Public speaking - confident and secure, 1 day
No matter whether you work in a business, public or private environment, chair meetings, present projects, conduct important negotiations and/or sales talks; you will achieve more with a winning, competent and confident appearance.

In addition, you will learn various techniques to increase the success of your public speaking.

This calls for special skills that go beyond traditional leadership skills.

You will reflect on closeness/distance in this 'sandwich position' and deal with the associated challenges in day-to-day management. 1-2 days, plus staggered in-depth 3rd day on request

Challenging Conversations,
1 day
How do I say it? How do I act in the event of resistance, strong emotions or in a blocked situation, be it internally (with collegues), with customers or with other work contacts? A guideline and various communication techniques will help you to put the preparation for the discussion into practice. You will reflect on your own role and attitude, and learn not only about the impact of verbal communication, but about the effects of non-verbal and paraverbal communication as well. Train to hold difficult conversations so that it is easier for you to tackle them and achieve your goal both confidently and respectfully.
Convincing Negotiation,

Do you want to argue in a professional and psychological convincing manner in important everyday negotiations, for example with customers, service providers, authorities or employees? In this seminar, you will be specifically prepared for such discussions by not only learning negotiation and argumentation techniques based on theory, but also by practising them during the workshop. This will enable you to achieve your negotiation goals through win-win strategies and ensure that negotiating partners will be happy to work with you in the future or support you with a further request.
Change Management and Resistance, 1 day
'You never know what will happen when things are changed. But do you know what will occur if they are not changed? (Elias Canetti) In this workshop, participants will analyse the laws of change. They recognise their own behavioural patterns and deal with their own resistance as well as with the resistance they are confronted with, for example, as managers. They develop self motivated options for action in order to be able to react more proactively to the changes. The workshop can be designed for mixed groups or groups of managers. Change management can also be dealt with as part of team counselling.
Appreciative Communication and Constructive Feedback, 1 day
Communication is a core competence in our day-to-day work, because appreciative communication motivates employees and makes work easier. However, it is not uncommon for misunderstandings to arise. How can these be resolved? In addition to various techniques, we also look at developping the corresponding inner attitude, which is usually also expressed non-verbally and paraverbally. Participants are sensitised. Appreciative feedback is a very valuable tool both among employees and in management. How can critical feedback be given constructively so that it can contribute to positive change? How can feedback be accepted so that the recipient can benefit from it as much as possible? In this workshop, participants will learn various techniques and practise using specific examples from their own day-to-day work.

In addition, you will learn to act appropriately and competently in challenging situations.
Resource-oriented Self-coaching, 1/2-1 day
Are you dissatisfied, in need of change or facing other challenges? Make a start and help yourself on your own. Self-coaching does not replace the support of a professional, but it is a valuable first step in dealing with challenges and clarifying the situation. In this workshop you will learn and practice how to activate your inner resources and coach yourself on the basis of given structuring aids and against the background of solution-oriented coaching. You will also use visualisation techniques to clarify the situation. The aim is to use the techniques you have learned profitably for yourself in the correct situation and in the future as well.
