Johannes Starke is a Health Coach for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) and Fibromyalgia at CFS Recovery Project. He possess expertise in teaching, training, leadership, co active coaching, time management and 17 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Johannes has my highest trust and respect. He is young, but his mastery is real. He's a joy to work with." and "I first met Johannes a little more than one year ago. I liked him from the moment I met him. Now that I’ve worked closely with him for almost seven months, I also know what a tremendous coach he is. At the end of 2011, I was the president of SF Coaches, the International Coach Federation (ICF) chapter for the San Francisco area. Up to this time, there had been four ICF Coaching Chapters in the San Francisco Bay Area. At the end of the year, our four chapters decided to merge into one new organization in order to best serve all the coaches in the Bay Area. Because I was the outgoing president, I volunteered to lead the transition into one chapter. Merging four chapters means merging four distinct cultures as well. As I contemplated the transition process, I knew there would be the natural friction that comes with change. I also knew the process would need to inspire people to come together into a new community, to take action and risks, and to begin to grow a new culture. I wanted to make sure we had the right support necessary for a successful transition and I knew our team would benefit from the support of a qualified leadership coach. Johannes came to me highly recommended, so I decided to bring him on board. Johannes guided me through forming a collaborative team and aligning all relevant stakeholders around a shared transition strategy. He expertly planned and facilitated our core team meetings, some of the most engaging and productive meetings that I’ve been a part of during my professional career. What I liked best about Johannes’ work is that he used a systematic approach based on the Collaborative Operating System, a system that created an unprecedented level of trust among our team members. I believe that it was due to the high level of trust and commitment among our team that we were able to accomplish all of our goals. Overall, Johannes exceeded my high expectations. I’d recommend his consulting services to anyone who is looking to build a high-performing, high-trust team, create a shared strategy, or who is looking to merge organizations and their cultures."
