How I become who I am

The truth and nothing but the truth.

That’s what always intrigued me. For me personally, nothing is more exciting than the truth. However, nothing in this world is so often either concealed or twisted.

As a journalist, it has always driven me to dig deeper. Not least with my award-winning story on the Globudent dentist scandal, which won me the prestigiuous Wächterpreis der Tagespresse for standing up for democratic values.

 

Today, I recognise inconsistencies in facial expressions and body language.

With my skills, I can detect unspoken objections and decode emotions, even if my opposite remains silent. It’s my expertise to  relate to my dialogue partners on an empathetic level and respond to them where they are emotionally.

 

I share this knowledge as a certified trainer from the Eilert Academy, Germany's leading institute for body language  and facial expression resonance® and. My clients are companies, managers and individuals.

 

And I make use of it in my coaching sessions to more quickly uncover my clients’ hidden drivers or fears.

 

Simply recognising emotions is not enough for me.

Getting to the origin of emotions, deciphering the needs behind them and facilitating an appreciative approach – that’s what drives me.

To support you as best as possible, I constantly develop my skills as a trainer and coach.
