Performance, resilience and balance – from personal experience

I know what it means to deliver top performance under pressure. I was a top athlete in my youth and later worked in the world of finance for over 10 years – in an industry that demands top performance and leaves little room for breaks. But I have also learned that long-term success does not come from even more performance, but from conscious inner clarity and sustainable energy.

My coaching approach combines mental strength, physical health and emotional resilience to enable sustainable success. I teach ancient wisdom teachings, principles from martial arts and modern leadership methods so that managers can channel energy in a targeted manner and act more efficiently – without wearing themselves out.

From investment banker to deep wisdom

After a career in the financial sector – including at Marc Rich and Bank Vontobel in Hong Kong – I followed my inner calling in 1992. I left the world of numbers behind and dedicated myself to my true calling: helping people to develop their full potential – with inner clarity, mental strength and physical health.

My coaching combines proven methods from business, wisdom teachings and martial arts to promote resilience, efficiency and authentic leadership. I help managers to manage their energy in a targeted way – similar to martial arts: not fighting against resistance, but using it to move efficiently and with ease.

My unique approach is based on:
✅ Ki/Chi principles: How to use inner energy optimally to achieve maximum impact with minimum effort.
✅ Martial arts techniques for business & leadership: increasing efficiency through focus, clear movement & strategic thinking.
✅ Resilience & mental peak performance: making decisions based on clarity instead of stress.

Leadership begins with self-leadership

Many managers know the feeling that the to-do list grows faster than their own energy. However, true sovereignty does not come from even more performance, but from conscious inner clarity. I will accompany you on your path to greater efficiency, inner joy, vitality, resilience and serenity – for sustainable success at all levels.
