Personal Energy Protection
Clients receive concrete, tailored, preventive, basic knowledge and tools that can support them on a daily basis to strengthen themselves and stay strong in order to better cope with stressful situations. In addition, they can work on strategies that support them in communicating, cooperating or leading staff in a more energy-saving and effective way.
Personal Energy Protection Training and Coaching is for health promotion and burnout prevention and not for diagnosing, treating or curing illnesses and disorders. It offers knowledge and tools for general stress management and burnout prevention.

Personal Coaching
Personal coaching focuses on helping clients to improve their personal work performance, to become more organised and satisfied in their daily work, to protect their stress resilience and to use personal resources and strengths in a more targeted way.
Business coaching
Also known as career coaching, this mainly includes coaching concepts that relate to the professional corporate level. In this coaching, clients are supported in improving or expanding their skills in the professional environment. This refers to company-related content such as leadership qualifications and goals, teamwork, but also the organisation and structuring of certain work areas.
Life coaching
Here, clients are supported in better mastering the challenges of daily life. This includes, among other things, dealing with other people, promoting personal strengths, as well as stress and conflict management in everyday life or personal development processes.
2.1 Each of our coaching/training sessions may contain different elements of the services listed here.
2.2 The exact contents, duration and costs of the services will be specified in an individual contract or in a written offer to the client.
