What would you like to change?

Coaching

You don’t need a coach. If you put your mind to wanting to change things, chances are high that you start moving. But as with a personal trainer, the process is faster, more motivating and probably also fun with a coach. A good coach helps you see the things you can’t, helps you find clarity where you are in the fog and says uncomfortable things not even your loved ones dare to say. A coach holds you accountable to being in your zone of genius.

You are my ideal client if you are an explorer. Corporate career or with a desire to be your own boss, highly ambitious, extremely versatile and with the badass factor. Traditional in manners, non-traditional in mindset. You like a good game and freedom is one of your top values.

I coach in German / Swiss-German and English.

Career advancement for leaders and employees

For companies who wish to enrol one of their leaders or future leaders. Coaching engagements typically last 6-months. Client sessions are complemented with a development plan for the coachee, manager- and HR check-in’s. I provide an additional 360 assessment and shadow coaching based on request.

The focus of my coaching engagements is on career advancement and career growth.

Female leaders of today and tomorrow

As an explorer you have a vision of being a leader beyond business. Career advancement is high on your agenda because you want a good career game, but also because you see it as an opportunity to continuously develop yourself personally. 

Career advancement topics:

  • Becoming a leader, developing as a leader
  • Personal brand and authenticity
  • Self-confidence and imposter syndrome
  • Visibility and presence

Male leaders

You are quiet successful and emphatic. You master strategy, planning and politics,  but you sometimes lack someone who is brutally honest with you. You are seeking non-traditional leadership approaches. And you are seeking personal development to sharpen your leadership profile. 

Career growth topics:

  • Thought leadership
  • More flow, fun and creativity at work
  • Authenticity, visibility and presence
  • Self-confidence

The REAL Superstars…

The real superstars in my work are my coachees – it’s a privilege to work with these key individuals. Smart, daring and caring is what characterises them. Each with their own flavour of badassry. Check out their amazing profiles, journeys and achievements.

“With Angela I did not only find a great coach but also a person I fully trust. With this basis, every coaching session ended with a finding for the next step of my personal and professional development.

She leads the sessions with active listening and asks the right questions to unlock hidden ideas & solutions. She adds analysis and supporting tools only when needed or if I ask for it. This to me is the power of coaching: she gave me the path to find my answers.”

Peter Tschumi

Peter is the perfect blend between process- and people orientation with a good pinch of humour.

“You can have your vision and your dreams, which are needed. A coach can help you to reflect on the challenges you are facing. However, do not think the coach solves your problems, the coach asks you the questions which might hurt you, because they hit the heart of your struggle, if it does so, then it is an excellent coach. I experienced this with Angela addressing the field I wanted to reflect, learn and grow. Angela has the ability to sense these little signals and could continuously bring me out of comfort. Finally, I can only thank her for the trustful environment in which she accompanied me. “

“Working with Angela was intense, impactful and effective. I was in the middle of the ‘fog’ and she helped me clarifying what I really wanted. Her listening capabilities combined with empathy and rational criticism let me understand I was and am responsible and accountable of my destiny and future: go and take it! My aha moment: ‘in-five-year call’ when we simulated we were in 2025 and she asked me what I was doing…”

We clicked immediately and I enjoyed every session and our conversations that opened me up to say „no“ to what wasn‘t for me and „yes“ to what I wanted. She was digging deep, asking the right questions and challenging me where needed. Angela is the perfect companion for everyone who wants to grow professionally and personally into the person we want to be.”
Justin Bone

A curiosity for people and places make him the perfect partner and leader.

“Coaching with Angela was like having a disinterested friend – not someone who is generally not interested but someone who hasn’t got a stake in your life, like a friend or family member – who can challenge you in a positive way, without the fear of any emotional or personal ramifications. Our sessions covered what I want from work and life (which I found uncomfortable at first) but Angela, through her warmth, honesty and caring nature created the safe space which allowed for honest, open and frank discussions. I’m forever grateful to her for our time together. Angela has become a true friend.”

How I want to make an impact and how important inspiration is to me. Angela was flexible but also kept me on track when I wandered off the track, being the good career coach she is.”
