"My goal for the coaching program was to gain a new perspective that would help me learn how to better deal with some challenges. I chose Ms. Karin Leven for the coaching. Ms. Leven responded very individually to me, my issues and my environment and was able to help me gain new insights in a very short time. The exchange within the coaching was a new experience for me, which I really appreciated and can only recommend. Ms. Leven developed a deep understanding of my issues and was able to use her expertise to give me important insights and great "tools" that I can still use long after the coaching session. I particularly liked how quickly my coach was able to get to the heart of an issue and understand where I was at. She was able to skillfully take my perspective and then reflect on it together with me. That was very valuable and helpful for me. I was also given some help to take home with me for the time between coaching appointments so that I could continue to work on my topic during this time.

I can only recommend the coaching and wish all future participants in the Graduate Academy program every success!"
