The human side of international careers
International careers don’t only change where people work. They change lives.
Relocation, international assignments and leadership transitions can affect identity, relationships, family life, belonging and career direction - all while employees are expected to continue performing professionally.
I provide individual coaching for international professionals and leaders navigating these transitions.
When the professional transition is also a personal one
An international move may look successful on paper while the person behind it is navigating much more.
A new role.
A different culture.
A partner or family adapting alongside them.
Questions around belonging and identity.
Changing career or family priorities.
The decision to stay, return or make another move.
Coaching creates a confidential space to work through these questions while helping the individual move forward with greater clarity and intention.
Coaching can support employees during
International relocation & assignments
Supporting employees as they adapt to a new professional and personal environment.
Career & leadership transitions
Helping international professionals navigate changing roles, responsibilities and expectations.
Working parenthood abroad
Supporting professionals as they integrate career ambitions with the changes that parenthood can bring while living internationally.
Repatriation & next-step decisions
Creating space to reflect on what comes next professionally and personally after an international chapter.
1:1 Corporate Coaching
Coaching programmes can be tailored to the needs of the individual and organisation.
A typical engagement may include:
Individual 1:1 coaching over approximately three months
Six 60-minute online coaching sessions
DISC profiling and debrief where relevant
Individual reflection exercises and tools
Support between sessions where appropriate
Clear confidentiality boundaries between coach, participant and organisation
Coaching is available online in English and German.
Professional background
I bring both professional and personal experience of international careers and life abroad.
Originally from Germany, I moved to Spain and have built my career across both countries. Having lived and worked internationally myself, I understand many of the transitions that come with creating a professional and personal life outside your home country.
Before becoming a Professional Life Coach, I worked internationally in Talent Management, Learning & Development and Employee Engagement, supporting global organisations and initiatives across different countries and cultures.
This combination allows me to understand both sides of international transitions: the organisational context and the person experiencing the change.
Based in Madrid, working internationally online.
