SERVICES

TEAM COACHING

Your teams are your company’s nucleus, so it is vital to have every team member working to their full potential and maximizing their personal strengths while keeping the goals of the organization at the forefront.

Team Coaching helps your team embrace its common purpose, while guiding them to increased productivity, renewed energy, and clarified direction.

One approach is systemic team coaching, which is much like a 3-legged stool with each component having equal significance:

  1. How team members look at themselves
  2. How team members interact with each member of the team
  3. How team members interact with the team leader and organization as a whole

This is a powerful collaborative approach that gives everyone a common purpose and a sharper focus on collective leadership, breaking new ground in all areas of the team dynamic.

Here are a few possible team coaching scenarios:
  • Helping a team come together on a critical new assignment
  • Improving communication between team members
  • Resolving conflict between team members
  • Showing a team how to better traverse changing situations
  • Guiding team members to be on board with the company’s mission
  • Optimizing and mobilizing teams in the virtual/hybrid environment
  • Adapting to the demands of a fast-changing, hyper-complex world
  • Learning to navigate and embrace change – a must-have in an increasingly volatile, unpredictable, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) world
Here are some of our outstanding results:
  • Teams are more confident in how they communicate with each other
  • Team members relay questions and concerns more efficiently with supervisors and fellow members
  • Accomplishments are recognized with more regularity
  • Conflicts and frustrations are minimized due to better communication
  • Teams are more motivated and optimistic
  • Team members are asking for new tasks and challenges

ONE-ON-ONE COACHING

If you are a leader in your organization looking for a more personal, one-on-one coaching experience, then this is the option for you.

You may have your own concerns and challenges with your leadership role, ranging from how to lead more effectively to how to not only accept but to embrace your leadership role.

I have a knack for getting to the core of your concerns quickly, and can guide you with proven techniques, providing you with tools and strategies to help you navigate your responsibilities with more finesse, courage, and confidence.

My clients have experienced results such as:
  • More willingness to accept and trust themselves
  • Increased self-confidence and self-assurance
  • Reduction in self-doubt and limiting beliefs
  • More poise in communication with direct reports and colleagues
  • Re-discovery of skills and abilities currently underutilized
  • Enhanced role as a people-centered leader

PRIVATE COACHING

Being in a job that no longer feels right can leave you feeling helpless, frustrated, and demoralized.

Somewhere along the way, for any number of reasons (or maybe no reason at all), you lost the enthusiasm you once had for your position, and you feel it is time for a change.

Unfortunately, your employer may not be aware or supportive of these feelings, so you are left to your own devices as you search for a way out.

And here is the biggest challenge: There is a big difference between THINKING about taking action and actually DOING it.

So, you come up with a myriad of rationalizations for the status quo:
  • When I turn 30 (40 or 50…)
  • When my children start school
  • When my children finish school
  • When I get that next qualification
  • When the weather changes

…and the list goes on.

Or maybe you ARE taking action, but it feels like you are spinning your wheels with nothing to show for it while the clock is ticking. Staying in the same place is no longer an option.

This is where my private, individual coaching can guide you as you design your own life and career.

One important caveat: you must be ready to do the work. There will be learning, self-reflection, and real action taking. Your results will be proportionate to your efforts. And it will be SO worth it!

My clients have reported:
  • More fulfillment as they find the position they desired
  • More confidence as they start taking the necessary steps
  • More clarity on what they really want
  • More relief to have an empathetic sounding board

What Clients Are Saying

"I was pleased to get to know Violetta Krok in a difficult team coaching setup as well as in personal coaching. What makes Violetta stand out for me is that she can skillfully read between the lines and make the right comments, which in turn allow you to come to the crucial questions yourself.

In a disjointed team made up of alpha males, she managed to skillfully take on emotional situations, de-escalate them and turn the emotions into positive results.

She has a good instinct, that at first glance have nothing to do with the actual topic. At second glance, however, they are partly responsible for the current situation.

What is also significant for me is the experience she brings to the table and how quickly she manages to familiarize herself with topics that were initially completely foreign to her."

U.S.
Chairman of the Works Council – Pharmaceutical Industry - Germany

"Violetta is one of a kind. She certainly can help any expat learn and master the German language. But what really sets her apart, is her decade-long coaching experience ranging from pharma industry to public sector. She is kind, honest and empowering. She is also tough, unapologetic and accountable. You want her in your corner for sure, and I can say that after 4 years of continuous coaching, I will sorely miss our weekly reality checks!"

C.C.
Team Leader - Tech Industry - USA

"You‘re looking for a professional coach? Be aware, Violetta is not the one for everyone ... why am I saying that? Well, I guess if you really want to get going, develop and grow your personality, hire her - she‘s the best and will kick your ... If you‘re looking for someone who is just „nice“, don‘t do it.

"Dear Violetta, Just a quick note to say thank you for the great time we had during the management assistance training ... Particularly the Saturdays with you as an instructor were amazing, and you helped us discover skills we never suspected we had ... You are such a charismatic woman with an amazing ability to encourage people, and with such a positive attitude ... You have made such an amazing, lasting impression on me, and I am very grateful to you for your positive energy. Such a pity that the training is already over. "

"I can only repeat what the other girls have said ... We had a great time, with lots of support, information, instructive contents ... and what was never missing in your lectures was that we all had a lot of fun and were highly motivated. As far as I am concerned, I would not mind monthly coaching sessions ... "

U.S.
Virtual Assistant – Germany

"Thanks to her charismatic personality, Violetta has no problem at all to engage all participants in her seminar right from the start. Right from the first minute, it was clear, this woman knows what she is talking about, and that it will be more than just theoretical knowledge that gets imparted. Her enthusiasm spreads easily to all the participants and the mutual interactions do not permit boredom to take hold even for a minute. "

S.W.
Executive Assistant – Public Sector - Germany

"I highly recommend Violetta as a language coach. She is extremely personable, always engaging and encouraging, and has deftly guided me through the hurdles of the German language. I feel that her unique combination of patience and persistence, and her ability to relate to my experience as an expatriate has really helped me to maintain the learning pace needed to acquire the language and use it in my daily life, even in the midst of trying to balance the competing demands of work and family life."

Dr. G.L., Ph.D.
Senior Scientist – Pharmaceutical Industry – Germany

"My assistant is one my most valuable assets. Her ability to professionally manage my (and others’) needs has direct and deep consequences for my ability to deliver results and on how I am regarded by others. She is already quite a strong performer, and so the coaching program is a both a recognition of her talent and also a development investment to take her performance to the next level. "

Dr. A.M., Ph.D.
Supervisor to an Executive Assistant - Pharmaceutical Industry - Germany

"It was truly enriching – one of the best seminars/continuing education courses that I have ever attended. The coaching is fantastic, and Violetta Krok is unique."

R.R.
Executive Assistant - Pharmaceutical Industry - Germany

"I suddenly realized what impact my behavior and my thoughts had on myself and my surroundings. We were given tools that brought calmness to the way I think, feel and act. I have never experienced such team work. The time is ripe - and so am I - for new things, new thoughts and new emotions. The coaching helped me to let go. I would recommend coaching to everybody who faces life changes, who has to change directions. The coaching results can be felt and seen. Violetta's coaching fosters development on a personal and professional level."

M.M.
Automotive Industry - Germany

"It’s been an incredible journey learning from you! Thanks for walking me through the language and the culture in the past year, plus many local tips! It’s been a tremendous journey for our family, and I very much appreciate we can communicate with you. "

Dr. Z.D., Ph.D.
Senior Scientist - Pharmaceutical Industry - Germany

"I have been taking language training with Violetta for one and a half years now.
What makes it so amazing is the way she is able to share her knowledge, embracing her passion for her work while teaching a language and culture. And not only with everyday life topics we are challenged with while getting integrated in a new country and culture but with added interesting work-related skills. A full package! Yes, there are a lot of professionals in this area, but only a few can evolve us in a way that brings us to learn more than a language, but also makes us discover matters which we can bring for our entire professional and personal life. More than grateful! "
