My name is Christiane Foerster and I was born in 1972. I live in the countryside, on the edge of Nürtingen, with my husband, two Romanian street dogs and a three legged cat. Prior to becoming a coach I worked in the automotive industry for almost 30 years, thereof 20 years in leadership positions in Germany and abroad.

During this time I encountered many colleagues and employees in stress and crisis situations who I was able to coach or support in my role as mentor or sparring partner.

I am a very empathetic person, good at listening, pragmatic with a sense of humour and a good portion of common sense. These are all essential attributes required to be a good manager and also to be a good coach.

In that sense I have been considering for quite a while to utilize my skills and experiences in order to set up a professional coaching business. Mid 2020 I finally decided to take the plunge after I had realized that my own stress pattern had already affected me substantially.

In the meantime I am a certified stress coach and psychological advisor with additional qualifications as stress and burnout advisor, mental health first aider and grief counsellor.
