Business Council
Understanding, growing, and connecting – together.
The Business Council is more than a meeting or a network – it is a dedicated space where genuine encounter and honest listening become possible. Here, entrepreneurs, leaders, and self-employed professionals come together to grow through challenges and to truly meet one another.
The idea is rooted in the original Council practice (>> more insights here): a circle in which every voice matters. Listening is at the center – not in order to reply, but in order to truly understand.
In the Business Council, we create a trusted environment where exchange and reflection can unfold – without judgment, competition, or the rush for quick fixes.
For capacity. For capability. For clarity. And ultimately, for success.
(Of course, success looks different for everyone.)
Especially in times of transformation, uncertainty, and constant change in working life, listening becomes the most vital resource. The Council makes it possible to hold contradictions and paradoxes, to gain new perspectives, and to arrive at sound decisions – together.
What makes it unique?
It is not about adding yet another method or tool. It is about what truly connects organizations and teams: sincere conversation, genuine curiosity, and an open stance.
Those who take part will experience how understanding and connection can become the foundation for sustainable growth.

Growing together in Council – two ways for you to take part
In the Business Council, you sit at the table with people who, like you, carry responsibility – leaders, entrepreneurs, and self-employed professionals from diverse industries.
What unites you: the desire for honest exchange, growth at eye level, and a space where every voice counts.
Here, no one advises, evaluates, or lectures. Instead, we listen, we seek to understand, and we think further – month after month, in a steady rhythm.
1. Ongoing Membership – Become part of a strong circle
If you join regularly, you become part of a committed group. The meetings take place monthly, always with familiar faces. Over time, real connection and trust emerge. Everyone brings their own topics and perspectives. Through the Council practice, a special dynamic unfolds: listening, speaking openly, and growing together.
- A safe, trusted framework
- Monthly rhythm, clear structure
- Exchange with entrepreneurs, leaders, and professionals from diverse fields
- Long-term development – for you and for the group
2. Trial Session – Experience Council once, with no obligation
Curious, but want to feel what Council is like first? You can join a single session to experience it directly. This gives you the chance to see if the style of exchange and the atmosphere resonate with you. Open, easy-going, and at a small fee.
- One-time participation, no commitment
- Open introduction to people, method, and spirit
- Space to ask questions and experience Council live
- Afterwards, you decide whether you’d like to join more permanently

Company Council
Council as a catalyst for culture and change within organizations
When I, as an organizational developer, introduce the Business Council into companies, it creates more than just another meeting – it creates a genuine space for communication. Here, your team can experience what happens when real listening takes place, when every voice counts, and when diversity is truly welcomed.
Whether as a format for leadership teams, project groups, or cross-departmental circles:
The Company Council fosters a climate where open exchange and genuine understanding become possible. Conflicts can be addressed without loss of face. Change becomes easier because it is carried collectively. Decisions become clearer and more sustainable – because they rest on true consensus, not on “majorities” or power.
Benefits at a glance:
- Strengthens team culture and trust
- Fosters sustainable, participatory decision-making
- Enables genuine dialogue – even on difficult issues
- Creates space for creativity, reflection, and cohesion
- Acts as an impulse for change and healthy leadership
1-to-1 Business Council
Individual clarity and development – Council methods in personal coaching
Not every developmental process requires a group. In the 1-to-1 Business Council, I apply the principles and practices of Council directly to you – in a personal conversation, focused on your questions, challenges, and goals.
Here, it’s about you: your journey, your development. Through mindful listening, precise reflection questions, and a safe, structured space, individual coaching becomes an intensive experience. Not standard coaching, but authentic Council in dialogue: open, honest, respectful – with the freedom to also bring forward the quiet and uncertain tones.
When does this make sense?
- When you want to gain clarity for yourself before entering exchange with others
- When you want to sort through complex questions with experienced, external guidance
- When you aim to work intentionally on your leadership style, communication, or way of handling change
- When you need a space to speak freely – without agenda, without judgment
The 1-to-1 Business Council is an invitation to get to know yourself more deeply, to develop new perspectives, and to return to your professional life with a refreshed and expanded view.
