    What to expect

    Your own leadership style

    No copying role models – we sharpen the style that fits your talents, values and Bern context.

    Strengths, not deficits

    Based on Gallup CliftonStrengths® 34 and profilingvalues – the assessments leading Swiss employers use.

    Team performance you can measure

    Strengths-based teams show up to 23% higher profitability, 18% more productivity and 73% less turnover (Gallup).

    Short travel, immediate application

    Early (from 07:00) or evening (until 19:00) slots – no half-day trip like with Zurich or Basel providers.

    How it works

    1. Free 30-min call

    We clarify your leadership topic and whether SDT/SBT is the right path – online or over a coffee in Wabern.

    2. Assessment & strengths profile

    Gallup CliftonStrengths® 34 and profilingvalues surface your leadership potential and blind spots.

    3. Develop your leadership stance

    In the SDT/SBT process you form an authentic style with clear values and role clarity.

    4. Transfer to your Bern day-to-day

    We support the transfer to team, one-on-ones and difficult leadership situations in your everyday reality.

    Who is this for?

    • You're new to a leadership role at a Bern SME, in federal administration, a hospital or a tech firm – and want to lead deliberately.
    • You've led for years and want training that goes beyond generic models (situational leadership, DISC, standard CAS curricula).
    • You want to develop your team from strengths and run one-on-ones with more substance.
    • You're preparing for the next step (team lead, division lead, executive board).
    „I've attended many leadership seminars in 15 years. Only with the 1:1 coaching in Wabern did knowledge turn into a stance – and my team into a real unit."

    Success stories from Bern – concrete outcomes

    Three anonymised cases from our leadership training in Bern. All figures are self-reported by clients in the structured closing interview 3–6 months after coaching ends.

    From expert to Head of Finance – without burnout

    Head of Finance, SME Bern region (team of 14)

    Challenge

    Newly promoted, led reflexively through control. After 6 months: 60-hour weeks, two resignations in the team, perceived as 'distant' in 360° feedback.

    Method

    SDT + SBT over 5 months. Gallup CliftonStrengths® 34 (top-5: Analytical, Achiever, Responsibility, Deliberative, Learner) and profilingvalues surfaced the gap between values (autonomy, trust) and actual leadership behaviour. Weekly transfer tasks in real leadership situations.

    Measurable result

    After 5 months: work hours down from ~58 to ~46 h/week. Team eNPS from −20 to +45 (internal pulse). Zero unplanned departures in the following 12 months. Promoted to extended executive board after 9 months.

    Key results
    • Work hours −12 h/week
    • Team eNPS +65 points
    • 0 unplanned resignations in 12 months
    • Promotion to extended exec board

    Experienced team lead, federal administration – back to impact

    Team lead, federal agency in Bern (11 people, 18 years leadership experience)

    Challenge

    After two CAS programmes and many seminars: 'I know everything about leadership – and it still drags.' Ineffective meetings, blocked decisions, sinking personal motivation.

    Method

    SBT focus coaching over 4 months, with profilingvalues profile and Gallup team grid for all 11 team members. Focus on delegation along strengths, clear role clarity, weekly one-question check-ins instead of status meetings.

    Measurable result

    Meeting time per week cut from 9 h to 4 h (calendar audit). Decision cycle for standard proposals: from 11 to 4 working days on average. 'I feel heard' in the annual employee survey rose from 68% to 91%.

    Key results
    • Meeting time −55%
    • Decision cycle −64%
    • 'I feel heard' 68% → 91%

    From senior engineer to engineering lead in a Bern tech firm

    Engineering lead, fintech in Wankdorf (team of 7)

    Challenge

    Jump from expert to lead. Insecure in 1:1s, gave feedback too late or too harshly. After 4 months a senior engineer threatened to leave.

    Method

    SDT (6 sessions) + targeted SBT sessions (4) focused on 1:1 conversation skills and strengths-based feedback. Role plays on three real conflict situations from the daily job.

    Measurable result

    The at-risk senior stayed and took on mentoring. Team retro score for 'psychological safety' climbed from 3.1 to 4.4 (5-point scale) within 3 months. Team deployment frequency doubled – not exclusively, but significantly through clearer leadership.

    Key results
    • Senior resignation avoided
    • Psych. safety 3.1 → 4.4
    • Deployment frequency ×2
