"Look with soft eyes. To see what is. Ready to sense any change" (Steven Gilligan)I am a former alpine skiing athlete and radio-show host who turned to become a lawyer and trusted advisor to the international automotive industry for 25 years and counting. And I have the privilege of flying for pleasure as private pilot since almost 40 years.Throughout my career from athlete and pilot until this day, I got trained to keep calm and deliver on peak performance. On time.And at deal sizes, complexities, economical and social environments I could never have imagined when I stepped into business. From Audit Assistant to General Counsel, Chief Compliance Officer and multiple Managing Director.Foremost, this fantastic ride created bonds with stunning human beings. Some of them became close friends.With that background, I focus on conflict regulation and the utilization of polarities to ensure peak negotiation- and decision making success. My offering and track record is from conflict regulation and (business)mediation to executive advisory, trainings and coaching, negotiation advisory, ghost negotiator and relevant trainings for individuals, teams and organizations.My lawyering background is both, in-house for large multinational organizations with annual revenues up to US$10+ billions as also with a leading international law firm to the automotive, tech, coms, and IT sector with 1000+ lawyers globally.My passion is to encourage and empower individuals, teams and organizations to tackle any challenges and to accomplish their best with highest integrity.If this resonates with you connect right away and send me a private note."The market is impressed with the „remarkable calmness and thoroughness with which he handles complex matters“, how „quickly he grasps highly complex structures and issues“ and that in spite of all the jurisdictions, he „never loses the overview“. Observers state that he comes “really close to the ideal of a general counsel”.The Legal 500, Corporate Counsel 100: 2014https://www.legal500.com/gc-powerlist/germany-2023/hans-michael-stracke-2/
