Over the past 15 years I have trained and coached more than hundred managers adapting to their new role as leader of the China organization, leading organizations of different sizes from 20 to more than 1000 employees locally, which operate in various industries as manufacturing, life sciences, sourcing or education. Some of these coaching assignments lasted over several years and I provided here continuous support in leadership development. Delegating and motivating, managing conflict, developing a strategic vision and driving organizational change were areas which were frequently covered. I usually apply 360 degree review tools as well as a large variety of other instruments, from personality profiles to assessments of leadership competencies in general to self-assessments of delegation and motivation skills, preferred leadership or conflict handling styles.
I have led learning and development programs for the top management of smaller, mid-sized and some larger organizations which included group coaching as well individual coaching elements. Developing a strategic vision and driving organizational change, but also managing conflict, were main topics we dealt with in depth. I usually share models and frameworks, methodologies and best practice examples which allow coachees to develop their own solutions in a systematic fashion.
Over the past fifteen years I have coached close to one thousand people from all continents on intercultural competences, mostly Europeans, Asians and Americans working for multinational corporations and being engaged in cross-cultural and cross-border collaboration. This included the coaching of managers who prepared for relocation or had relocated only recently.
