KLAZEPT’s Understanding of Coaching

Coaching is a journey, and we need to be open to all a journey calls for. It is always a consciously chosen encounter with the unknown.

The coach is the “vehicle” that takes you from A to B. And since a coach is not a Ferrari, this experience requires time. As soon as you take the first step, your journey begins – the coaching process.

It is a discovery of everything novel along the way and of all the possibilities that may present themselves. In open and supportive conversations with Klaus Zepuntke, you will see your situation differently. You will be heard and seen. The facets of your presenting situation that have not been mentioned will also be “heard” by Klaus Zepuntke. Through questions, he reflects the unspoken and, in doing so, makes you consciously aware of its existence.

This experience leads you to a deeper understanding of yourself. A prerequisite for authenticity and success. The high-quality inner dialogue – the conversation with oneself – opens up doors to creative new thoughts and ideas. When barriers in the form of beliefs that prevent you from achieving your goals are made conscious, they can be replaced with beliefs which support your growth and development.

The intensive coaching conversation with Klaus Zepuntke depends firstly on his complete presence as coach to you and your process and secondly on the container principle. Everything that happens in the coaching session, i.e., on your journey from A to B, is confidential and remains in a safe place (container). Only then does the work remain clear and the maturing process can begin. Discretion and mutual trust support this development.

To ensure the success of the coaching process, 100% self-responsibility is required by you at all times.

Klaus Zepuntke uses a holistic approach in that he considers you in both your personal and professional roles. This enables him to reflect back to you role-specific behavior patterns which help you deepen your self-knowledge.

The quiet location and the pleasant ambience of the KLAZEPT office create an atmosphere that supports the coaching conversation.

At the end of the coaching process, when you have reached B, you will sense how the journey has shaped you. Point B serves as an intermediate stop from which you can then confidently travel further on your own.

“Questions drive our future. They don’t have a best-before-date. – Answers do.”

Coaching for Corporations

This coaching is primarily designed for executives who need to make decisions for themselves and / or their company. Whether from members of the C-suite, managing directors, owners, founders or executives who report to the board, KLAZEPT Coaching & Consulting is often contacted to address the same questions.

What differentiates these clients is the degree of impact their decisions have.

New and possible solutions

Klaus Zepuntke develops new solutions with you or with your company that are possible because unwritten rules of the game or taboos are openly addressed. These are often the obstacles blocking a solution in the company’s interest. Once these have been identified and put on the table, it becomes increasingly difficult not to deal with them in the medium to long term.

Topics include classic leadership questions, value-oriented leadership, 360 °-leadership, dealing with resistance and conflict, leading teams, groups and projects, and leading a change process and redefining your role as a leader along the way.

Here are some examples:

  • How can I strengthen and further develop my identity as a leader?
  • Which leadership style expresses best who I am as a leader?
  • Do I need to know all leadership styles? Do I need to be proficient in all of them?
  • How can I better position myself in the company?
  • What does value-oriented leadership really mean?
  • How do I lead reorganization and restructuring processes and at the same time take into account market requirements for the success of the company?
  • How do I act courageously and authentically without being perceived as a hardliner?
  • How do I obtain and keep personal clarity?

If necessary, diagnostic tools (MBTI & DISC) can be used to support the coaching process. You may also benefit from KLAZEPT 360 °-feedback, shadow coaching and workshops on specific topics / situations with people within your 360° radius.

An ever-recurring question across all hierarchical levels is how work and family life can be reconciled with a win-win intent.

Klaus Zepuntke’s concept Work-Life Integration is distilled from almost three decades of experience in executive coaching. In its radical and consequential approach (radix, Greek root), it offers a solution that leads to a healthy and successful professional and private life.

Depending on the client’s needs and preferences, KLAZEPT offers a mixture of telephone and face-to-face coaching.

Work-Life Integration

Work-Life Integration

Living and Working with Health and Success  

Balancing work and life is wishful thinking: The complex demands of work-life balance have failed. We need to contemplate and consider life in a new way. More important than striving for work-life balance is consciously connecting the three areas of life, namely work, partner-family-friends, and self.

Being content and successful in life is not achieved by way of a balance that separates areas of our lives but through Work-Life Integration.

  • How can we deeply enjoy our life without risking burn-out?
  • How can we ensure quality in our relationships with our partner, our family and our friends?
  • How can I take care of myself regularly without being egoistical?

The questions we need to ask ourselves are the core of this conceptual approach. No standard solutions are offered; we always look closely at your individual situation. Klaus Zepuntke consciously takes the time to reflect your questions with you.

With your own new and courageous questions you will be able to reflect your life differently. Your first answers will support you in this. You will discover that there are no short cuts in life and in which areas of your life change is needed.
