More about Antoni's personal development & business development projects

After several years as a consultant, project lead and manager in two renowned management consultancies in Dusseldorf and London I started to offer my skills in the areas of Coaching and Consulting  under "my own flag". I do so working directly with clients and though partner organizations. On site, digitally and through hybrid work. 

I stick to the theme „Don't manage people, manage work" on a daily basis by working with people on eye-level and by managing work with good eye.

More about Oliver and his work

I would like to share my expertise from more than 25 years in consulting, line, and staff functions with other people to support them in both their professional challenges and transformation issues. My focus lays on individuals as well as on teams or even whole organisational units – my formats are flexible and vary from individual 1:1 coachings to workshops, on-site or digital.

“Doing does the difference.”
This motto drives me. Trying even small changes and learning out of them represent a clear success – for both individuals and the whole organisation.

Coaching for a better development of people and organisations

Once the inner and interpersonal problems, conflicts and challenges have been solved, the work atmosphere improves. That leads to more drive within a team, more focus on the essentials and more collaboration. And it leads to less distraction and ego-trips. 
Clever minds who work and collaborate together and inspire customers will inevitably transform their businesses through small, continuous feedback cycles.

To support such feedback cycles in transformations, I highly value methodical competence, a focus on the key topics and a dose of calmness that I have acquired from my own ups and downs from various projects. 3A stands for the three most important cornerstones of my approach to change projects:

Transformation coaching and consulting.
Q&A for me as coach & consultant.

What motivated you to offer coaching & consulting under one roof?

My motivation was to offer my clients the biggest possible value-add. 
I can do that best and it's most fun for me to work for my own organization and in my own pace. 
This advantages by far outweights the additional work in sales and administration. 


What characterizes a great coaching education?

In my view a great coaching education can be recognized from three elements: 

The person running the training can perform a coaching so well that I as a participant feel encouraged to be coached by that person.

  1. The person running the training can perform a coaching so well that I as a participant feel encouraged to be coached by that person.
  2. The person running the training is great at passing on knowledge and tools and enjoys the process
  3. The price of the program is decently balanced considering argument 1 and argument 2 above.

    If all three arguments apply then the coaching program seems to be a great additional qualification. Not only for people who offering coaching professionally. 
How do you sell large coaching projects?

To me this question has two elements:

  1. How do you get a foot in the door of large and renown companies?
  2. How to coach people with a lot of responsibility and busy schedules?

About 1: Patience, persistence and awesome partners with their own networks. Avoiding any unrealistic promises.  

About 2: Exchanging expectations, active listening and providing value-add by addressing the key problems and focussing on solutions. Avoiding any type of bullshit bingo.

More information about some of my previous projects can be found  here.

Are there situations where positive change doesn't work?

There are certainly situations in which things have taken a wrong turn or where the risk is hight that wrong turns are about to be taken. 
These situations typically have in common that there are (too) many areas in the organization where people work against each other. Reasons for this can be interpersonal conflicts, diverging interests or a team structure that doesn't fit. 
In such situations it's important to clearly point out what needs to change (internally) before starting any major change project. 

What is transformation coaching?

For me a transformation coaching is primarily the use of coaching in transformation projects in organizations.
Transformation projects are change projects that take place in companies all the time. A couple of example for transformation projects can be found on the Case-Studies page.
