Attendees comments

A very varied and instructive training. Andreas Prause skillfully guided us through the event with his in-depth know-how and a balanced mix of methods and managed to create a meaningful practical relevance at all times. I am taking away numerous best practice recommendations for use in my day-to-day management work.

Erik Meyer
Debeka

It was a very good workshop that showed me where I currently stand in my leadership role and at the same time also showed that change is needed here. It made me realize that the employee needs to become even more of a focus.
You managed to refill my box of ideas for implementation in my team and gave me new motivation, even for goals that are not so easy to achieve. I also really liked your flexibility and your direct response to our questions.

Christian Heiske

The training "Successful leadership - even in turbulent times" led by Mr. Prause inspires with case studies from top-class sport, makes content comprehensible through visualization, invites self-reflection and is full of "aha moments". Mr. Prause is a gifted trainer, coach and illustrator who responds to the individual needs of the participants and, with an extremely successful mix of knowledge transfer, practical exercises and group discussions, makes the training not only a source of important impulses but also an entertaining break from everyday working life. 

Abteilungsleiter einer Bundesgesellschaft

The training "Successful leadership - even in turbulent times" gave me a completely new perspective on my leadership style and our team structure. At the same time, I was shown helpful ways in which I can now harmonize my perception with reality. During the two days of the seminar, we had an open exchange within the group of participants and with the seminar leader. He responded individually and flexibly to every question without losing the common thread.
