Client Review
“I highly recommend Steffen as a coach for stressed founders, executives, and leaders. As a CEO, I often rely on external mentors and consultants to reflect on my leadership style and communication patterns. Steffen helped me uncover blind spots, which led to breakthroughs within my teams – real ownership and accountability. After several unsuccessful attempts, his coaching enabled me to gradually step away from daily operations and micromanagement, empowering the team to take ownership. Steffen offers a unique blend of psychological insight, business acumen, and humor. If you’re looking for honest feedback – delivered respectfully and supportively – Steffen is the coach for you.”
