Sabine Walter has been overseeing a generational change in our company for three years now. She does this with the highest level of expertise, clear objectives and consistent implementation. I am very pleased that I decided to give her this mandate. Without her support, we would certainly not be where we are today. She always justifies the trust I place in her.

"Winning qualified employees for my company was the first challenge. Forming a powerful team out of these employees was the second. And managing these employees successfully in the start-up phase of my company was the third challenge for me. Sabine Walter was a reliable sparring partner and coach for me in all three challenges. With her empathy, she very quickly created a basis of trust that gave me and my staff the courage to clearly leave our own comfort zone and thus grow beyond ourselves in a short time. We couldn't have laid a better foundation for our business start-up."

Renate Weiss, Managing Director

Manager in the field of marketing

Coaching starts where conventional approaches reach their limits. In just 12 sessions over five months, I was able to sustainably resolve professional issues that had been with me for years. Sabine Walter pursues a cause-orientated approach that makes it possible to achieve profound changes in an efficient and targeted manner. Her methodology is precise and practice-orientated and enables managers to develop their full potential. This coaching is ideal for decision-makers who are not just looking for short-term success, but want to move into the future in a sustainable and strategically stronger way.

Coaching helps me to better reflect on my strengths and weaknesses. I can achieve my goals with clarity and at the same time with more ease. The coaching supports me in realising my full potential. It strengthens me in my authentic behaviour.

Sabine Walter knows how to initiate significant change processes with targeted impulses and how to dissolve beliefs that have been cultivated over a long period of time with just a few coaching sessions. This allowed me to focus on the essentials. In a short space of time, I was able to bring noticeably more lightness and focus into my everyday life and realise a cascade of positive side effects.

PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT FOR MANAGERS

We are most effective when we are in our power and do what corresponds to the core of our being.

Frequently asked questions

How do you work in executive coaching?

In the Managing Director Coaching programme, I support you in all aspects of your further development. In doing so, I look at you as a person and in your role - i.e. as part of the system in which you operate. The system can be the company, the management team or, in the case of family entrepreneurs, the family:

My coaching is systemically solution-focussed. Depending on the task at hand, sparring, counselling and small training sessions can be part of my work. I use all methods to support you in achieving your goal and thus further development.

Do you offer coaching for entrepreneurs?

My coachees are mainly entrepreneurs from the SME sector. In most cases, the coaching serves to prepare for or accompany a generational change from the parent to the child generation. In such succession processes, both the senior entrepreneur and the junior entrepreneur(s) benefit from the coaching programme.

Support is provided over several years. However, coaching usually only takes place once a month.

How much time should I plan for executive coaching?

It has proven successful to carry out coaching in small units of 60 minutes each over a longer period of time. Many managers and executives work with me every 3-4 weeks and receive support over the course of a year.

Why should I invest in coaching as a managing director or entrepreneur?

Executive coaching offers managers concrete benefits on several levels. Here are three reasons why you should invest in coaching as a managing director or entrepreneur:

  1. Sparring partner and honest feedback provider: With the coach, you gain a sparring partner and honest feedback provider. You rarely find this in your own company.
  2. Self-reflection and change of perspectiveA coach helps you to better recognise your own strengths and weaknesses and promotes deeper self-reflection. Both help you to develop as a person and in your leadership role.
  3. Impulses for the further development of the company: Many of my clients use their coaching to gain impetus for the further development of the company organisation or for upcoming change projects.

Ability to deal with conflict - a key competence of managers

Conflicts are part of life and unavoidable if further development is to take place. Different opinions, expectations and interests inevitably clash in teams and organisations and create a field of tension. In order to resolve this tension permanently and constructively, the ability to deal with conflict is necessary. The ability to deal with conflict is therefore a key leadership skill. It can be developed as part of a personal coaching programme by dissolving blocking beliefs.
