ARE YOU READY TO CREATE DIVERSE,

AND FUTURE-READY CULTURES?

TEAM DEVELOPMENT COACHING AND FACILITATION

As an experienced engineering leader and now leadership consultant with international team leadership experience, I help engineering, technology and other STEM organisations to create a culture that focuses on people’s strengths, diversity and collaboration.

My mission is to change workplace cultures to increase engagement and bring more diversity and emotional intelligence into engineering organisations – the key
to future-ready and innovative organisations.

I provide customised coaching and training programs based on various in-person and online options for managers, their teams and the whole organisation.

I am based in Cologne, Germany but available for in-person team sessions & speaking across Germany, Europe and the rest of globe.

There are two ways to work with me.

THE FUTURE OF WORK NEEDS NEW LEADERSHIP AND HUMAN-CENTRED WORKPLACE CULTURES.

The working world is in constant change. Leaders and teams have to constantly adapt to new personal and professional challenges and different ways of working in a hybrid world.

In addition, more and more individuals want to be fulfilled, and feel seen and appreciated for their contribution and celebrated for who they really are.

STEM organisations and teams can count on highly-intelligent and technically-skilled individuals.

But many teams operate as a group of individual contributors, rather than in true collaboration.

To build highly effective teams, we need to empower each individual to be at their best, while creating psychological safety, and improving leadership, communication and relationships skills.

With a focus on strengths development and emotional intelligence, we can create a workplace that fosters diversity and empowers your people, teams and organisation to thrive in a fast-paced world.

1) Workshops & Programs

My award-winning team coaching and development programs are a powerful strategy to enable true team performance, a positive team environment
and a human-centered culture. Together we create human conversations about what really matters in the workplace and inspire innovation
and creativity and allow every individual to shine as their unique self.

Here are common problems my programs help to solve:

Lack of engagement and motivation
A negative team culture
Attraction and retention of the best talent to reduce costly staff turnover
Ineffective communication
Lack of collaboration/work in silos
Lack of trust
Ineffective team leadership
Gap in the leadership pipeline
Leaders with high technical skills that are lacking leadership skills

How we will work together

All team programs are tailored to your organisation based on my Lead Like YOU! Framework.

During an initial conversation, we will determine
the current state, needs and desired outcomes for your team or organisation.

I will design a bespoke team development program for your team.

Options range from 1h, 2h, half-day, full-day workshops or longer team coaching programs,
as well as 1:1 coaching sessions. (Online and in-person options are available.)

The programs can include a focus on:

- Change of the emotional culture of the team or organisation
- Strengths-based development and strengths-based culture
- Developing high-performing and effective teams
- Leadership development for emerging leaders and leadership teams (turn technical experts into courageous leaders)
- Team-building at the different stages of the team development cycle
- Emotional Intelligence
- Diversity and Inclusion
- Wellbeing and resilience
- Self-leadership
- Effective communication
- Fostering innovation and creativity

My solutions incorporate a blended approach
of learning, interactive exercises and assessments.

Based on your desired outcomes, I use,
and am certified for a variety of facilitation tools

Testimonials

What stood out to me as exceptional about the work together was the approach of valuing the uniqueness of individuals. This was exceptional to me as it created a safe environment where the attendees could be vulnerable, allowing for honest and constructive discussion. The team gained clarity on their individual strengths from the 1:1 sessions Anne held with each of them. As a team, we gained clarity on how each member works best and what they need to be fully effective. As a manager, this insight is priceless .I highly recommend Anne’s strengths program. You will learn more about yourself and your teammates than in any other program.

Anne led my newly-formed unit through team-based strengths work, preparing us for assessment, facilitating our in-person workshop, and providing us with all the materials to make the most of our new understanding about our strengths. I couldn’t have hoped for a better experience for the team and had feedback from team members that Anne was a great choice! Anne made the whole process for me straightforward and easy. She was well prepared, showed fabulous agility when it came to coming up with last-minute hybrid workshop solutions, and kept everything running smoothly. Perhaps most importantly, Anne’s energy and positivity are authentic and infectious which made for a truly enjoyable experience that I’m sure we’ll remember as an important formative bonding experience as a team.

Anne is a breath of fresh air! She creates a really safe space for people to share their vulnerabilities, and helps guide the team into a positive space. Anne helped us to identify, articulate and improve our unique strengths and how they all knit together. The process as a whole was well thought through and was tailored to meet our needs. It was a journey we were all on together, and we now have a common language to help us remember the work we did in the session.

Anne was such a delight to work with when we were planning our leadership program for young adults living with type 1 diabetes. Her ideas were innovate, and she was easily able to adapt the program to fit our needs. But on top this, you can just tell that Anne is extremely passionate about what she does. Her positivity is infectious.

Anne delivered a bite-size session for us on leading teams in times of uncertainty. Anne’s session, which formed part of a personal development series we ran for our clients, drew great feedback from attendees. For me personally, the session was a great reminder that while the C-19 world continues to throw ‘routine’ out the window, the fundamental needs of our teams remain the same. Anne helpfully offered tips I can implement to look after myself and my people.
