Work-Life Balance, Leadership & Life Puzzle Education

Inspiring training programs for personal and sustainable development

With our trainings and programs, you get the opportunity to pause, reflect, and create the space needed for real growth and development.

Our courses help you expand your knowledge, skills, and mindset around the life puzzle, work-life balance, and leadership, while also deepening your understanding of business and management. It’s about taking the time to learn and go deeper – not only in theory, but in practical insights and tools that strengthen both yourself and those around you.

The purpose is to give you a combination of reflection and action – where you gain new perspectives and practice applying them. Our programs are built on three essential pillars of the life puzzle:

👉 BE – pausing and being fully present in the moment, regaining focus and energy, and tapping into your inner resources to build lasting well-being.

👉 APPRECIATE – seeing and valuing what you already have, strengthening motivation and meaning, and finding a sustainable rhythm between work and private life.

👉 BREATHE – creating space for rest and inner balance, fueling long-term sustainability and helping you develop a deeper understanding of yourself and your potential.

Through these three dimensions, you can rediscover the flow between work and life – and most importantly 👉 FEEL FREE in your life puzzle, making it possible to live and lead authentically, guided by your values, and to shape your life on your own terms.

LIFE PUZZLE & WORK-LIFE BALANCE TRAININGS

My trainings in life puzzle and work-life balance are designed for everyone – whether you are a private individual, a business leader, or a student about to enter the professional world.

The purpose of these trainings, offered in different formats, is to expand knowledge, skills, and mindset for all those curious about their personal development in the areas of life puzzle, life balance, and leadership – and who want to rediscover the flow in their lives.

Retreats – Take a pause. Find your flow. Return with clarity and renewed energy.

Retreats are an opportunity to step away from the noise of everyday life and give yourself time to pause. Over one or several days, you’ll reflect on life balance, leadership, and the life puzzle – in a safe environment, The Flow Stugan, that invites stillness, insight, and fresh perspectives.

Workshops and Webinars – A few hours that can transform how you see life

Workshops and webinars are for those who long for change but don’t know how to get started. They provide inspiration through fresh perspectives on the life puzzle, work–life balance, and leadership, and equip you with tools that spark reflection and learning. The format is condensed into just a few hours – accessible yet powerful enough to set your journey of change in motion.

Inspirational lectures and leadership addresses – Let’s create insight, engagement, and sustainable development together

As a researcher with 25 years of experience in life puzzle, work–life balance, and leadership, I share my research, knowledge, and practical insights. My goal is to inspire and engage you, your colleagues, and your students in creating greater well-being and sustainable development.

Academic Courses for Students – Training the Leaders of Tomorrow Begins Here

During my 20 years as a university lecturer, I have heard countless clichés about working life from students – so many that it often becomes clear that many are not prepared to enter what is called the “real world.” For future students to be able to create harmony between work and life’s responsibilities, it is crucial that they receive the right knowledge and training already today.

Business Administration Education

As a business economist, I offer courses and training in business administration for companies that want to strengthen their competence development. I am also available for universities in the same field.

Each training can be tailored to your company’s needs, conditions, and preferred format – with a focus on creating both immediate impact and long-term growth.

Strategic HRM – From Strategy to HR Processes; Creating Real Impact

On one side, you have business strategy, and on the other, HR. This course gives you both perspectives – a theoretical understanding and a practical application of how HR strategy and HR processes can be aligned to work hand in hand with business strategy.

Sustainable Leadership for Sustainability – developing leadership that lasts, for people, organizations, and the future

Although leadership has long been one of the most studied fields in research, many leaders still fail to create the long-term, sustainable conditions required for success. Why is that – and how can we change it? This course provides the answers, combining research, practical tools, and individual coaching.

Change Management – Navigate your company in a VUCA world and develop the tools for sustainability and long-term success

Today’s world can be summarized in two words: change and sustainability. It is often described as a VUCA world – Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity – a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous reality. How do we lead in such a turbulent environment? There is no longer a single way to manage change – instead, it requires a multifaceted perspective, the courage to think differently, and the ability to create stability in uncertainty. This course provides you with theory and practical tools to lead and organize sustainable change.

Communication and Rhetoric – Learn to Communicate with Power, Ethics, and ConvictionCommunication and Rhetoric

Nothing can remain uncommunicated – everything is communication. But how can organizations and leaders communicate in a way that convinces rather than merely persuades? How can communication strengthen engagement, create influence, and contribute to sustainable success? This is the essence of rhetoric – using it wisely and ethically. This course provides both insight into the strengths and pitfalls of rhetoric and practical training in developing sustainable, value-driven, and positive communication.

Service-Oriented Organizations – From Strategy to Practice & Becoming an Authentic Service Organization

IWe live in a society where services play a central role – people are constantly looking for solutions that make their lives easier. Yet, many feel that the service they receive does not meet their expectations. Developing and maintaining a service-oriented organization is therefore both unique and crucial for long-term success. This course focuses on service leadership and service management – and on how organizations can become truly and authentically service-oriented.

Decision-Making with Clarity and Structure – Strengthen Your Choices with Scientific Methods

Is decision-making an art or a science? The answer matters less – everyone benefits from basing their choices on clarity, structured data collection, and analysis, in other words, scientific methods. This course is just as relevant for students aiming to strengthen their academic skills as it is for leaders and decision-makers seeking to improve the quality of their decisions. Even when decisions rely on intuition, research shows that such intuition is organized – and can be trained and developed.

Thesis Support – Practical guidance that strengthens both your work and your academic confidence

Throughout my academic career, I have supervised a large number of bachelor’s and master’s theses – on average around 15 projects per year. This has provided me with both in-depth knowledge and extensive experience in thesis supervision.
