So how does this coaching actually work?
Over the years, I’ve helped hundreds of professionals find the 20% adjustments that unlock 80% of the impact. Communication that feels natural, lands clearly, and leaves the right impression.
The results: clearer thinking, stronger presence, and communication you can rely on — in any room.
Speak clearly and confidently in international business environments.
Ensure your ideas are heard and respected, whether with colleagues or clients.
Overcome fears and give the best version of yourself in presentations, meetings & more.
Speak with clarity, authority, and credibility - from the inside out.
Here’s how:
These sessions focus on real professional situations where performance directly affects results and career opportunities.
Each session focuses on your current challenges, improving performance in situations that matter most to you and your work.
High-impact training giving your teams the skills to perform at their best — in professional English, across cultures, and under pressure.
Goal: Measurable progress in confidence, clarity, and collaboration across all departments and with external stakeholders.
A very valuable course focused on real business communication. Many of the skills are things I still actively use today.

Chris is an experienced trainer from the UK, based in Austria since 2017. He leverages his multilingual, academic and global experience to help professionals, leaders, and teams communicate with confidence in international business settings.
His approach combines applied psychology, communication research, and real-world experience from twenty years across three continents.
Alongside his academic work at FH Vorarlberg — where he teaches Business Communication, Presentation Skills and Critical Thinking — he designs and delivers coaching and training programmes for professionals and organisations across the DACH region.
Not exactly — and the distinction matters. The focus is on communication performance, not grammar lessons or vocabulary drills. Most professionals working in international environments already have workable English. What’s often missing is confidence, structure, and the ability to adapt their message to different audiences and situations. Language naturally improves as a byproduct, but it’s never the primary goal.
Two groups. Firstly, professionals working in international or English-first environments who want to communicate with more clarity, confidence, and impact — in meetings, presentations, negotiations, and high-stakes conversations. Secondly, DACH companies looking to upskill their teams for international business, trade shows, client communication, or internal collaboration across borders.
The 1:1 coaching is personalised to your specific communication challenges and professional goals — it’s entirely built around you. Corporate training is designed for teams and organisations, with content tailored to your industry, department, and company objectives. Both approaches use the same philosophy: real situations, practical tools, immediate application.
1:1 coaching sessions are delivered online, making them accessible internationally.
Corporate training programmes are delivered in person within the DACH region.
Most people notice a real shift within the first two or three sessions. Because we work on your specific situations rather than abstract theory, improvements tend to show up quickly — in the very next meeting, presentation, or conversation you have.
For 1:1 coaching, a typical initial programme runs over 6 weeks, with sessions tailored to your schedule. For corporate training, programmes range from a single workshop to a structured 6–8 week series. The right format is discussed during the initial clarity call — there’s no one-size-fits-all approach there.
We talk about where you are, what’s getting in the way, and what success looks like for you. It’s a genuine conversation — not a sales pitch. If the coaching or training is a good fit, we discuss next steps. If it isn’t, you’ll still leave the call with something useful. No preparation needed, no obligation either way.
Pricing depends on the format and scope — 1:1 coaching, group workshops, and custom programmes are each structured differently. The Clarity Call is the right place to discuss this, once we understand what your needs are.
Whether you’re a professional looking to show up differently in English, or a company investing in your team’s communication — the first step is a conversation. Let’s see how I can help you.
