Business Coach
Anne Uhlemann
The turning point came—which I can see and understand today in retrospect—with the birth of my first child. The fact that I was now a mother was supposed to impact my work as little as possible, and I didn’t change the demands I made on myself. Couldn’t get everything done during the day? Then I would sit at my laptop in the evenings or even during the night.
I became more and more exhausted and longed for more autonomy. The desire to work more on myself as a leader and the topics I was passionate about grew. Fulfilling “only” the needs of others became less and less bearable. And at some point, the realisation could no longer be suppressed:
“Priorities and values in life change. That’s okay.”
In difficult phases of my life, they gave me a space where I could reflect on my role as a manager, to develop myself, to radically take on responsibility and then turn decisions into actions.
Why should I work with you, Anne?
Always give your best
Didn’t I describe this above as a belief system? Yes, I did. But it’s also part of my aspiration to be a good coach. Because, working with my clients, I want to achieve the best for them.
Experience
As a manager. As an employee in a corporate and agency environment. As an expat. As a mother who also likes to work. As a coach and coachee.
Curiosity
Space for reflexion
Professional and personal development need “space”. On the hand, you need time to reflect on the demands of your profession, and your own capabilities, needs, desires and goals. On the other hand, you need a protected space to work on these topics. Coaching provides you with both.
Courage to leave your comfort zone
Take shortcuts and save (life) time
Are you about to take the next step in your career? Change jobs? Become visible? Having a number of options is both a blessing and a curse, because when we decide to make changes in our life, we tend to give twice as much weight to the potential losses than to the expected gains. Coaching helps you to go ahead instead of turning career decisions over and over in your mind unproductively.

What else is important to me?
When I’m not spending time with my family, I love becoming immersed in newspapers and books (my best find this year is Daniela Dröscher’s Lies About My Mother). I like to switch off by listening to podcasts and going for walks in and around Potsdam.
And, as I firmly believe that the best way to get to know someone is through their favorite series, then I think it’s only fair to reveal mine: The Good Wife, The Good Fight and Borgen! And this year, I have decided to be more “analog” in the way I maintain and enjoy my friendships. Which is why you might bump into me on a train sometime—anywhere from Hamburg to Lake Constance.
