I have been working with Bernhard and Con-TACT for well over 15 years and he has proven to be an unbelievably valuable partner. He has supported me and my organization in multiple ways: coaching of individuals at various levels in the organization (including senior managers), coaching of teams and change management during organization transition.

Personal growth the Con-TACT way

Your time is precious! Develop yourself through a combination of online coaching sessions with off-line self-guided reflections.

Virtual or blended methods in coaching and training have proven to be extremely effective! We combine and deliver them in a way that suits you best.

Con-TACT Infographic
Con-TACT provided an exceptional coach who was able to help me to develop a deeper understanding of myself, in particular of one's deep-rooted (and often unconscious) needs and motivations. Through self-reflection exercises and going deep into one's own mind, heart and soul the process allowed me to reframe the context of any given situation and experiment with new approaches and strategies to achieve my objectives whilst still remaining true to myself. And all took place through a virtual platform, it felt like being in the same room with my coach; effective, efficient, and flexible!

Mastery of the virtual environment has become essential in today’s business environment, which is why it is natural that this is where we operate. Our extensive experience within this area allows us to create effective relationships with our clients, based on complete trust.
Eliminating the need for physical travel, we are able to operate at short notice with no carbon footprint implications and minimal ineffective downtime.
Digital scheduling of coaching assignments also reduces administration.

Your Leadership makes the difference

Transform your ability to lead and inspire without the need to invest time in travel and out-of-office time.

When working with us you will experience the same safe space online as when sitting in the same room, even when we are not - regardless of time, location and situation.

Our passion for excellence in coaching and training drives us to apply the best approach as we support our clients’ personal development and transformation, utilising the most effective technological solutions to achieve meaningful change.
We offer blended and online training programmes tailored to the specific needs of both individual leaders and organisations, resulting in maximum cost effective approach for both.

Working with Bernhard, as my coach, helped me to strengthen my effectiveness in my emergent remote leadership role. Looking back to the start of the coaching I wonder why I was so hooked on controlling everything in my dispersed organisation. I now realise how capable dispersed members of my Leadership Team are after having given them the space to grow and flourish.

The Virtual World – our established Normal

As a leader you want to ensure that you lead as effectively in a dispersed, virtual organisation as you do when everyone is located in the same place.

Initially I was very sceptical about virtual coaching, however I was immediately struck by the intensity and effectiveness of the online coaching. It was like being together in the room with much more flexibility in the planning.

Although technology is essential to operate in a virtual business context, it contributes only about 20% to the success of the work itself. The ‘soft factors’ or leadership competencies of running a meeting, managing teams and leading virtual organisations etc., are of paramount importance to be really effective!

We partner with organisations who seek tailored training support to lead more effectively within the virtual world. We also facilitate online meetings, to enhance the quality of interaction and effectiveness.

And we partner with individual leaders seeking to transform their effectiveness within their own virtual context.

Our Con-TACT Campus

There is always an opportunity to learn and actively develop more of your own potential!

We offer a combination of online sessions with off-line self-guided reflections.

Con-TACT Campus is our go-to in support of our coaching programmes to enhance our clients’ (virtual) leadership skills and competencies.

The bite-sized online modules we created enable the user to develop and reflect according to their own pace and needs.
These will often be used in combination with interactive group web-workshops or individual virtual coaching sessions.

Con-TACT Campus separates content into three categories: Self-reflection-, Leadership-, and Teams-related topics, most at  different levels of intensity. We use the modules for our clients as and when appropriate.

Who and what is Con-TACT?

Long before Covid we already focussed our energy primarily on leadership related challenges in businesses with particular attention to dispersed teams and virtual working in dispersed organisations.

Here we have developed a vast array of know-how on effective virtual working practices and leadership.

We help our clients design and implement solutions for a broad range of problems and offer ongoing mentoring and coaching.

We work mainly across Europe but now more than ever in the virtual world, so geography is not a restricting factor at all for us.
