Coaching, Facilitation and Leadership Development
Space to reflect. Courage to act. Clarity to lead.
ICF-accredited coach, learning expert and former McKinsey leader. I help leaders, teams and people in transition to step back, gain perspective on what matters and move forward with new confidence.
About me
I spent more than nine years at McKinsey & Company leading large-scale transformations from strategy to operational excellence to organizational performance. Most recently, I was General Manager of the McKinsey Innovation & Learning Centers across EMEA.
Along the way, I served as expert faculty for McKinsey’s global leadership development programs, facilitated workshops for senior leaders and change agents, and coached individuals across regions. I saw again and again that transformations succeed or fail with people: how leaders show up, how teams talk to each other and how individuals handle change.
Today I work in a leadership role at a global technology company, where I also serve on its Global Enablement Council, shaping the learning & development curriculum for more than 80,000 employees worldwide.
In 2020, I completed my PhD on innovations in management learning. Since then, I have also worked as an independent coach, trainer and facilitator. My coach training includes the Co-Active Training Institute and the Newfield Network. I am an ICF Associate Certified Coach (ACC) and Newfield Certified Coach (NCC), with additional training in systemic coaching, design thinking and stress management.
My style is warm, direct and hands-on. I listen closely, ask the questions others might not, and make sure you leave every session with something you can apply the next morning.

How I work
We start with a free 30-minute call to explore where you are and whether we’re a good fit.
Together we shape goals, format and rhythm around your context, with no off-the-shelf programs.
We run focused sessions that balance reflection and action, with support in between.
We review progress together and build habits so the change sticks long after we finish.

Fabian helped me find my footing in a new leadership role much faster than I thought possible. I finally stopped firefighting and started leading.Jonas R.VP Operations, High-Tech company
Our offsite was the first one where we actually left with decisions and a clear action plan. Fabian kept us honest and focused, and, surprisingly, we had lots of fun.Anna K.Product Owner, Management Consulting

What I’ve published
International peer-reviewed research on learning effectiveness, leadership development and strategic decision-making, plus practitioner work from McKinsey.
Good to know
That’s exactly what the free call is for. No pressure, no hard sell, just an honest conversation.
Coaching is a one-to-one partnership focused on your goals and growth. Facilitation is about guiding a group: designing and running sessions so a team can think, decide and work together well.
Coaching looks forward. It works with people who are basically well and want to grow, decide or change something in their work or life, focusing on goals, actions and new ways of thinking. Therapy is a clinical healthcare service that treats mental health conditions and often works through past experiences. I’m not a therapist. If I notice during our work that therapy would serve you better, I’ll tell you openly and help you find the right support.
It depends on the format and scope. Individual coaching packages and team sessions are quoted after our free call, so you only pay for what you actually need.
Both. Most coaching happens over video, which makes it easy to fit into busy weeks. Workshops and offsites can be in person or fully remote.
I work in German and English. Tell me which you prefer, and we’ll use it from our first call.
Yes. What we discuss stays between us. For company-sponsored coaching, we agree upfront on what (if anything) gets shared with your sponsor.
Let’s talk
The easiest first step is a free, no-obligation 30-minute call. Send me a message and I’ll get back to you within two business days to arrange it. I’m based in Munich and work in German and English, virtually and in person.
