I have been a pioneer of Executive Coaching in Asia as one of the first professionally trained coaches in Hong Kong in 2002. While pursuing my passion for coaching, I have developed Progress-U as one of the most important coaching organizations in Asia until it was taken over by the Stephenson Mansell Group (SMG) in 2023.I have been listed as one of the Top Executive Coaches by the independent Coaching Foundation (https://coachfoundation.com/blog/top-executive-coaches) as well as being named as one of the top 10 most promising coaches by the Asia Business Outlook magazine.TODAY, with CEO Coach, my focus is on coaching Top Executives such as CEOs, Presidents, Managing Directors etc. (often including their teams), helping them to take themselves and their organization to the next level.I also launched Ascend-U together with Amit Chatterjee to help anyone develop coaching excellence.MORE ABOUT MY BACKGROUND AND APPROACHI am considered a prolific thought leader and author in the areas of Organizational Culture, Leadership and Coaching, having written over 250 articles as well as the 2 books, "The Groupness Factor" (in 2005) and "The Coach Factor" (in 2012). Publications such as CareerTimes, Effective Executive, Human Resources Magazine, South China Morning Post, etc. reported about me. I also appeared on RTHK and Cable TV.Being among the most respected Executive Coaches in Asia, I focus on working exclusively with top-level executives. I have successfully coached C-Level executives (often including their team) from prestigious organizations such as adidas, BASF, Bayer, Commerzbank, Covestro, Dah Sing Bank, Four Seasons, General Electric, IBM, L'Oreal, Mahindra, Pfizer, Richemont, etc.My coaching approach goes way beyond standard coaching competencies, processes and tools. I often take my clients far outside their comfort zone, knowing that significant transformational shifts happen only there. I have developed a number of unique techniques that have proven to be particularly effective and efficient even though they may break with the standard rules of coaching. I know that my clients don't care about coaching, but about making meaningful and sustainable changes for themselves, their teams or their organization.To name a few innovations I created/developed:* Numerous Team Coaching Tools* Innovative way to conduct Development Centers (so-called Progress Centers)* An unusual way to accelerate building a healthy self-esteem* A research-based model for Trust and the 4 Degrees of Listening* Culture Success Formulas
