Seminars and trainings are optimal especially at the beginning of a project or change to find the entry and the basic setup. External knowledge and experience of other people is collected and made available for oneself or in one’s own company through face-to-face events.

Workshops, lectures, seminars and the like can be a good starting impulse. Often they offer not only knowledge but also quick and direct access to methods and tools and, quite incidentally, they often have a strong motivating effect. Ideal conditions for a good start.

Unfortunately, we have observed time and again that sustainable success can only be achieved if the introduction of new working methods or personal development is accompanied over the long term – whether individually, in a team or the entire organisation. However, the required expertise and concrete experience is often not sufficiently available in the person, team or company to guarantee the support. External support, coaches and consultants can compensate for this.

Long-term advice and support or regular retrospectives and selective impulses increase the chances of success. But especially in the world of Agile and New Work, experts are often rare and rarely directly available or coordination is difficult. In addition to the consulting fees, travel expenses for travel to and from the location and hotel accommodation are often incurred. Ultimately, these points and possible scheduling problems mean that some companies are unable to find and book suitable support.

In times of digitalization, we have various tools at our disposal to solve these problems. Fast internet and a camera provided, we can achieve very good results with remote coaching or online consulting. If required, the online coaching can also be supplemented by face-to-face meetings.
