“Leadership becomes particularly challenging when conversations get stuck, teams need direction, or change – such as the rise of AI – creates uncertainty. That’s exactly what we developed Advanced Leadership for.”

Overview

You’ve been leading for several years – and you know that leadership is never truly “finished learning.” The demands keep growing: developing teams, navigating difficult conversations, leading through change, shaping culture – all while keeping the day-to-day business moving.

The Advanced Leadership Training picks up where foundational leadership training leaves off. We work primarily with your real-life leadership situations – live, intensive, and with direct feedback.

A particular focus is on developing a coaching mindset: How can I ask better questions instead of giving answers? The training also covers Generational Leadership – how to navigate different expectations within a team – and leadership through change: supporting teams through change and uncertainty, including a practical perspective on AI as a leadership context.

Who is this for?

For experienced leaders who want to strengthen their impact, communication skills, and coaching mindset.

For team leads and department heads who want to actively shape team culture and lead their organizations through change.

For leaders who have completed the Leadership Essentials training and are ready to take the next step in their development.

Day 1: Leadership Impact & Developing People

Self-leadership and resilience as the foundation for effective leadership.
The leader as coach: Developing a coaching mindset and skills – asking better questions instead of giving answers.
Coaching with the GROW model
Unlock potential & address performance clearly: Practise challenging development and performance conversations using real-life cases.

Day 2: Team Culture, Generations & Leading Through Change

Psychological safety & team culture: What does a team need to speak openly – and how can I actively shape that?
Generational Leadership: Gen Z, Millennials, and experienced employees – understanding different expectations and needs and using them productively as a leader.
Leading through constant change: Supporting teams through change, uncertainty, and transformation – including the impact of AI on everyday leadership.
Working with practical models such as the “House of Change.”
Transfer & commitment: Defining concrete next steps and personal development goals.

Procedure

Im Advanced Leadership Training stehen keine Modelle im Mittelpunkt – sondern die echten Führungssituationen der Teilnehmenden. Wir arbeiten mit Re-Runs: Führungssituationen werden live gespielt, mitten drin unterbrochen und neu versucht – So können neue Reaktionsmuster ausprobiert und trainiert werden.

A key focus of the training is developing a coaching mindset. Using the GROW model and their own real-life conversation cases, participants learn how to develop employees through powerful questions and foster ownership instead of providing solutions. This not only improves the quality of one-to-one conversations, but also transforms team dynamics.

Day 2 focuses on team culture and the leadership questions that truly matter to experienced leaders today: How do I lead a multigenerational team? How do I support my team through change and uncertainty? And what does AI really mean for my role as a leader?

Each participant receives individual feedback from the group and the trainer. At the end, everyone defines concrete personal development goals for the weeks and months ahead.

Methods

Applied Improvisation & Re-Runs: Leadership situations are played out live and varied until new response patterns take hold.
GROW Model & Coaching Conversations
Feedback & Feedforward from peers and the trainer.
Lean Coffee & Peer Consulting
