A brief note on the meaning of "PPP-CDC

"PPP-CDC" stands for "Professional Services for Professionals from Professionals – Career Development Coaching." The "PPP" encapsulates the services offered in my freelance and independent practice. Alongside Career Development Coaching, this includes Interim Management Services (IMS) - ppp-ims - where I support companies, often in critical or near-insolvency situations, with restructuring efforts, and Senior Advisory Services (SAS) - ppp-sas - where I provide my expertise as a Senior Finance Professional to businesses. Additionally, I offer Corporate Governance Services (CGS) and Finance Lecture Services (FLS): CGS involves my role as a Non-Executive Director on various boards, focusing on oversight and regulatory functions, while FLS covers all commitments as an Assistant Professor, Lecturer, Tutor, or Speaker/Panelist.

CDC represents an innovative approach to Career Development Coaching: It's a conceptually and scientifically grounded coaching method for ambitious professionals led by a former corporate executive, who has enhanced his credentials with internationally recognized certification as a professional Co-active Coach. This approach combines purposeful, goal-oriented coaching with customized mentoring, integrating personal mentoring techniques with key elements of the Co-active coaching methodology. This symbiosis forms the methodological foundation of the relationship between the MentorCoach and the Coachee. Based on the developmental needs of the Coachee, the experiences of the Coach as an executive are tailored specifically, enabling the Coachee to develop and implement personal development steps, inspired and jointly crafted with their MentorCoach, guided by continuous feedback in day-to-day operations. My five fundamental commitments to my Coachees are:

1. We enhance the impact of your leadership

2. We enrich the dimensions of your personality

3. We expand the reach of your toolkit

4. We enable the success of your positioning

5. We maximize the security of your wellbeing
   

With these commitments, I support the development of your leadership into a sustainably successful executive.
