I had the pleasure of working with Ulrike on strengthening my leadership skills, discussing career related situations and options, and working on executive presence and communication. We also worked on career development and planning, enabling me to make conscious choices based on my personality and leadership style. What I valued most was how Ulrike combines her positive and inspirational attitude with deep professional and human experience, keeps focus in the conversation, and instills a sense of confidence and "can-do" attitude in her clients. I can wholeheartedly recommend Ulrike to anyone looking to become a stronger, more authentic leader, based on a strong communicational foundation.

I had the pleasure of working with Ulrike during a pivotal career transition, and I can’t recommend her enough. From our very first session, she quickly understood not only my goals but also my personality; she uses that insight to offer tailored, actionable advice that goes far beyond generic coaching. Whether we’re preparing for high-stakes interviews, navigating the emotions that come with a career change, or refining how I communicate my experience and strengths, her guidance is always spot-on.

Ulrike supported me in one of my most challenging times, professionally and personally. From our very first conversation, she understood not only what I was struggling with, but also why — and that made all the difference. Instead of offering generic advice, Ulrike met me exactly where I was. She helped me cut through the noise, reconnect with my strengths, and map out a path that felt both ambitious and true to who I am. Her ability to listen deeply, ask the right questions, and offer both strategic and mindset support is something truly rare.

Ulrike is a highly knowledgeable and experienced communication expert, with a very positive and engaging attitude. For our internal communication strategy, she lead a cross functional team representing various disciplines and successfully managed the team to derive the strategic communication objectives and tailored communication solutions for the company’s multi-dimensional communication system. Ulrike’s contributions as well as her leadership were key for the success of this project.
Karsten G.Basel, Switzerland
Ulrike’s communication training was very useful because as it was not only combining some of the notions already known from other training modules in a logical and valuable structure, but also including valuable tools which I’m sure I will use in the future when setting up my communication strategies. The training was well organized and interactive, using appropriate instruments and Ulrike was very clear and competent.

I participated in Ulrike’s seminar. It was a great event, full of engaging exercises and fun. I would certainly recommend it for an excellent content and valuable hints.
Bartlomiej B.Zurich, Switzerland
The “Communication with Impact" training empowered me to be more self-confident by using the presented methods. To understand how communication works helped me to effectively structure and create presentations. Especially the “thinking from the end” call-to-action exercise enables me to become a better story teller.

Keep motivating people and keep shining!

about me

 

 

Many talented introverted professionals struggle to be seen and valued at work. They often feel overlooked, underestimated, or stuck behind louder voices — even though they have the skills, ideas, and vision to contribute at the highest levels.

I know this world inside out. Before becoming an executive coach, I built a successful 30-year career in corporate communications, leadership development, and executive roles. I’ve sat in the boardrooms, navigated the politics, and experienced firsthand what it’s like to be an introvert expected to “perform” in environments designed for extroverts.

That’s why my work is different. I don’t just coach theory — I bring a deep understanding of how the corporate world really ticks, and I translate it into practical, real-world strategies that introverts can apply immediately. My approach is practice-oriented, customized, and focused on tangible results: recognition, promotion, and authentic leadership without compromising who you are.

As an introvert myself, I know the pressure to put on a mask. But I also know you don’t have to change your personality to succeed. My style is energetic, motivating, and direct — showing clients not only that it’s possible to thrive authentically, but also how to do it with confidence, ease, and a touch of style.

📩 My mission: To help introverted professionals and leaders get seen, valued, and promoted — while staying true to themselves.

Let’s connect if you’re ready to unlock the strengths of quiet leadership and achieve the recognition you deserve.
