Executive Presence Program · 12 Weeks
Presence that cannot be overlooked.
A 12-week program combining 1:1 coaching and group work for leaders who want to be heard – without raising their voice.
Only 12 places per cohort – shared across the English-speaking (7:30 pm CET (1:30 pm ET / 10:30 am PT)) and German-speaking group (4:30 pm CET), on Sundays. Next start: 17 January 2027.
What you'll gain
Four shifts you'll feel in everyday leadership.
- You get heard in meetings – without raising your voice.
- You show up clear and composed, even under pressure.
- You gain influence and visibility in your environment.
- You lead with presence instead of accommodation.
How it works
Twelve weeks, one clear process.
01
Application
Short form, about 2 minutes.
02
Conversation
A personal 30-minute call – together we check if it's the right fit.
03
1:1 + group
Three 90-minute 1:1 sessions scheduled with you, plus a 120-minute group session every week with role-play and implementation – on Sundays, in either the German-speaking or the English-speaking group.
04
Transfer
Application in your daily work – and between sessions you can reach me on WhatsApp or Telegram, with a reply within 24 hours.
The approach
Why communication training alone falls short.
Most trainings work on the surface: phrasing, posture, vocal technique. That helps – right up to the moment it matters. Because someone who stays silent in the decisive meeting rarely lacked the words. They lacked an inner permission.
The Identity Flow approach is an integrative, narrative-psychological coaching model. It starts with identity rather than technique, and works outward from there: from recognising to shaping, from self to relationship. Grounded in research from psychology, embodiment and systems theory – among others Bandura (self-efficacy), McAdams (narrative identity), Cuddy (presence) and Keltner (power through connection).
Recognise
Cognitive Flow – which patterns hold you back in exactly these moments, and where they come from.
Name
Self-Narrative Flow – the story you tell about yourself gets examined and rewritten.
Embody
Behavioral Flow – posture, voice and presence, until presence stops being technique and becomes a state.
Connect
Relational Flow – resonance, dialogue and impact in the real room: meeting, board, negotiation.

Voices from my university teaching
What participants say after 17 sessions.
„The course challenged me to think differently about leadership."
Before the course, I thought leadership was
„Something you can do or can not do, no inbetween."
Today, I believe leadership is
„Something you can always get better at."
„It was visible that you love the topic and it makes a huge difference if a mentor is just blankly reading off a script and pushing theory onto one, or if the mentor has experienced / lives through it as well."

„Be open to questioning your own assumptions. Leadership is much more about people than I expected, and understanding yourself is the first step toward leading others effectively."

Also included
What you get beyond the coaching.
- The book „Invisible No More“ – a signed copy, published 10 October 2026.
- The 12-week journal – one flow exercise per week, along Recognise, Name, Embody, Connect.
- Every session live, nothing recorded – what is said in the group stays in the room. If a Sunday doesn't work, you get a short summary on request, and your topic goes first the following week.
- The phrasing library – concrete sentences for the moments they go missing: being interrupted, reclaiming your own idea, salary conversations, criticism in public.
Investment
What staying silent costs you.
A role that passes you by because others in the room were louder costs you a multiple of this figure over the next five years – in salary, in scope, in opportunities that never even reach you. Twelve weeks against five years: that is the real calculation.
28.5 hours of guided work – 24 hours of group coaching, 4.5 hours 1:1, plus access between sessions.

Frequently asked questions
Before you apply
Who is this program for? +
For leaders and professionals who want to be heard in meetings, decisions and difficult conversations – not through volume, but through clarity, presence and strategic impact.
How is the program structured? +
12 weeks, combining 1:1 coaching and strategic guidance online with role-play and implementation in the group – based on the Identity Flow approach. Specifically: 3 x 1:1 (90 min) + 12 group sessions (120 min). The group session runs weekly on Sundays, 12 sessions with one break week over Easter. There are two groups and you choose yours when you apply: the English-speaking group at 7:30 pm CET (1:30 pm ET / 10:30 am PT) or the German-speaking group at 4:30 pm CET.
How much time does this take alongside my job? +
A 120-minute group session once a week on Sunday, plus three 90-minute 1:1 sessions we schedule individually. The group session sits deliberately on a Sunday – outside your working week. Two groups to choose from: English-speaking at 7:30 pm CET (1:30 pm ET / 10:30 am PT), German-speaking at 4:30 pm CET. Between sessions you can reach me on WhatsApp or Telegram, with a reply within 24 hours.
What ethical standards do you follow? +
The standards of the ICF (International Coaching Federation) and the German Coaching Association (DFC) – with a clear commitment to transparency, independence and your wellbeing.
What does the program cost? +
4,760 € as an early-bird rate, valid until 3 January 2027 – after that the regular price of 6,545 € applies. These are final prices: as a small business under § 19 of the German VAT Act, I do not charge VAT. Payment plans are available.
Alongside the Executive Presence Program I occasionally work in other formats – 1:1 clarity coaching, career clarity coaching, coaching for empathetic leadership, "Speak Up: Own the Room", as well as communication training and strategy workshops for organizations. These are available by request only: request individually.
