Brief introduction
As a “fine-bubbled” boutique consultancy, I take care of your request personally! Every professional development, every career, every path is unique. This is how I support you as a “job seeker” in your search for a new professional perspective and reorientation (outplacement and career consulting). I “fish for your pearls” with you—your individual strengths, values, and areas of interest—and together we develop your new professional goal.
Companies receive customized, tailor-made solutions from me for questions relating to workforce reductions—whether in individual redundancies or in larger restructuring programs (outplacement consulting / transfer agency funded by the Federal Employment Agency).
