When I started doing trainings
20 years ago, I covered - like just about everyone who starts as a freelancer in
this business- almost all areas of the market: negotiation, sales and
leadership, but also presentation, rhetoric, individual coaching and other
exotic topics.
Today, I don´t do that
anymore. I have learnt that in certain areas there are colleagues who are better
than me - if you conclude from this that in the areas that I cover, I like to be
one of the best, you are not totally wrong. Therefore, I concentrate on what
I´m very good at. And that is basically the mentioned 4 areas: leadership,
negotiation, team development and conflict management.
In the various topic areas, you won´t find
formulated training programs with the according themes. In the conception of my
trainings and their content, I proceed consequently client-oriented and adapt to
my clients´ topical requests.
An example: A big client of mine (about 11,000
employees at the location), in whose production sector I have been doing
executive trainings for years, introduced a completely new work assessment
system some time ago. This system caused a lot of nervousness and confusion
among the employees and overlied other topics such as motivation or team
development.
As a result, new topics were required in my trainings: Methods of work
assessment, running of assessment conversations etc. These "new"
topics replaced therefore the standard topics of leadership - if something like
that exists anyway.
