Disability/Discrimination/DEIJ statement

We are deeply committed to diversity. Our founder Katja is a renown for her great effectiveness in female empowerment which for her is just one of many biases to overcome in the world. We are respecting a multitude of gender, religion, sexual orientation, race, language and personality. We live this value by aiming at an equal degree of men and women in our courses, by integrating business background students with art or religions or social backgrounds, we teach mostly in English which allows us to be open to people from throughout the world, from all backgrounds and cultures.

The pro bono clients we offer are coming through global NGOs and offer our coaches the chance to see and understand very different life and cultures. By supporting our students in their self development, too, we help them to hear themselves think, thus to get awareness of their own biases, to see how much we all assume and reconfirm our biases on a daily biases. We are including neuro science teaching in all our ACTP courses to get a deeper understanding. We learn about ourselves by being different to others: „Der Mensch wird am Du zum Ich“ (Th. Buber, German Philosopher) this is why we aim for diversity in our courses and in the selection of clients we offer.

What is Human Partnering?

Human partnerning is a method in which the executive coach interacts with you. A form of coaching, if you like.

“Coaching” has become a commodity that you can purchase with ease on online platforms. This common form of coaching aims to help you solve the problem of a situation you are currently facing or let you gain some new skills. It does not aim for the deeper personal level because this is “too personal” – or, in a way, too scary.

Then there is a whole industry of “wellness coaching”. Taking time off in a luxurious offsite, finding your inner self, hugging trees. Nice. Yet all too often, this relaxation evaporates in the “real world,” in which you face a multitude of challenges, be it in your profession, your relationships, your family, and the social fabric you have woven around you. These are challenges you have chosen to face, often cheerfully, and they deserve to be taken into account.

Human Partnering takes a different approach. It partners with you to address the most personal issues. The coach accompanies you and supports, at the right moment, to discover, address, and gradually resolve the hidden – and sometimes not so hidden – topics that are of real importance to you as a person. The coach will then return with you to the concrete situation that currently occupies you and help, if required, to apply what has been found on a more fundamental level to the concrete issue at hand.
