Personal Details

Bio

As a well-established coach and consultant, and former C-level executive I am the go-to expert for authentic leadership and impactful communication.

By combining cutting-edge self-development techniques with my vast hands-on experience as a Corporate Communications executive I help leaders to build credibility and trust through effective communication. More than just a CCA-certified coach, I am a savvy expert on leading across hierarchy levels and different cultures by providing pragmatic and easy-to-use tools to my clients.

Prior to founding my company in 2019, I worked as a Corporate Communications leader for over 20 years in a variety of industries, steadily climbing the corporate ladder until I became a member of the executive committee of an international pharmaceutical company based in Zurich in 2015.

I have designed award-winning global engagement programs and successfully implemented numerous leadership, change, and corporate culture programs. I have extensive intercultural experience both in large corporations as well as in medium-sized companies and start-ups.

I hold an MA in Marketing Management from Robert Schuman University in Strasbourg, France. I am a CCA-certified coach, a member of the International Association of Coaching Institutes (ICI), and founder and host of the podcast Empowering Female Leaders.

We all KNOW what is good for us and what we should DO to move forward – be it at work, in sports and in our private lives. And yet we all know the situation where we just can’t get off the ground.
