AVGS Coaching

My Motto

Clarity provides direction. Action makes change effective.

Are you looking to change direction professionally, return to work after a break, take the next step in your career or turn a business idea into reality? You may already know that something needs to change, but not yet which path is truly right for you.

I understand career transitions not only from my work as a coach. Over more than 25 years, I have experienced different professional roles, international working environments and numerous change processes. I also spent five years living in London and Milan. This experience has shaped my understanding of different people, cultures and career paths. I also know first-hand what it means to move from a long corporate career into self-employment.

In my AVGS coaching, we combine reflection with concrete action. You will not receive a standard solution, but structured support tailored to your experience, personality and current circumstances.

How I Can Support You

Career and Orientation Coaching

Would you like to identify the professional direction that suits you or learn how to present your experience more convincingly? Together, we work on:

• your strengths, values, skills and professional goals

• realistic career options and possible changes of role or industry

• your positioning, CV and application documents

• your self-presentation and preparation for job interviews

Executive and Business Coaching

As an experienced professional or manager, you may be facing a new role, complex decisions or increasing demands. Possible topics include:

• role clarity, leadership and communication

• decision-making and dealing with responsibility

• conflicts, challenging situations and change

• self-organisation and dealing constructively with pressure and uncertainty

Start-up Coaching and Self-Employment

Would you like to start your own business or develop an initial idea into a viable business model? In start-up coaching, I support you with:

• clarifying your business idea, target group and positioning

• developing your business concept, business plan and financial plan

• marketing, sales and self-marketing

• setting priorities, self-leadership and creating a realistic implementation strategy

As a founder myself, I know that self-employment requires more than good planning. It also requires making decisions under uncertainty, perseverance and a clear view of what really matters now.

Resilience and Self-Leadership

Career transitions rarely follow a straight path. Rejections, doubts and unexpected developments can affect your energy and self-confidence. To me, resilience does not mean enduring every burden. It means remaining able to take purposeful action, even during challenging periods.

In our coaching, we may therefore also work on priorities, self- and time management, dealing with setbacks and activating your own resources.

How I Work

I listen carefully, ask challenging questions when necessary and provide honest, constructive feedback. We consider not only what you want, but also what is realistic and sustainable in the job market and in your professional life.

The goal is to create clarity, make well-founded decisions and define steps that you can genuinely put into practice.

What I Bring

• more than 25 years of experience in international companies and small and medium-sized enterprises

I offer all coaching formats in both German and English. My main focus is online coaching. In-person sessions in the Solingen, Düsseldorf, Wuppertal and Cologne areas are also possible by prior arrangement.

If you would like to find out whether working together is right for you, I look forward to meeting you for an initial, no-obligation conversation.
