After 13+ years in different management positions in the manufacturing industry I dare to say that I found my home at GCG in 2023. On the one hand, it is the entrepreneurial way of working that I am drawn to since I grew up in a family run business. Working ‘out of the box’, serving customer needs, fail, learn, and rise again – now all of this is part of my profession.

On the other hand, it is coaching! Being Christa’s (founder of GCG) nephew, I was able to join a GCG conference in 2012 and learned how “good leadership and people management” can foster business success and growth. Having been in studies of Business Coaching & Change Management at that time I was fascinated by the content and real experience cases. Throughout the years on the job, I asked myself more often how we collaborate, what drives people, what makes them follow a leader, what makes them develop themselves. I understood that coaching can play a key role in people’s and organizational success. The idea of having an impact on people and being rewarded by their mastery, that is what I enjoy. Hence, coaching is the second part of my profession.

Since joining GCG it has developed from profession to passion: coaching and collaborating with clients. I have discovered how akin these two are. It’s about exploring, discovering, creating awareness, challenging perspectives – and about a common goal: enabling growth.

I have the privilege of doing this kind of human-to-human work every single day and I genuinely love it.
