Especially looking at the difficult situations is insightful as you will get a pretty complete picture of your limiting beliefs in exactly these kinds of situations. Once you have done the Good and Difficult you can make an informed decision about an action plan on what you want to do Differently in the future.

Ulrike Seminati is a communication coach, author, and long-time executive who empowers her clients to lead authentically and with charisma.
Prior to founding her company in 2019, she worked in corporate communications for over 20 years in a variety of industries, steadily climbing the corporate ladder until she became a member of the executive committee of an international pharmaceutical company based in Zurich in 2015.
During her career in the corporate world, she has designed award-winning global engagement programs and successfully implemented numerous leadership, change and corporate culture programs. In all these years, one thing has struck her time and again, especially from the perspective of her role as communications leader: Companies invest in strategies, infrastructure and also in the training of their employees.
However, the sustainable benefit of the latter all too often comes to nothing because the individual is unable to implement what they have learned. Mostly for the simple reason that they do not sufficiently reflect on themselves and do not know how to position themselves with confidence. The foundation is missing, so to speak, the fertile soil on which the potential of leaders, employees and thus the company goals can grow and flourish.
Today, she combines some of the most effective self-development techniques with her own experience at all levels of hierarchy to give leaders tools to communicate with charisma, lead with authenticity and arrive in a zone of lasting high performance and happiness.
