Personal and Leadership Coaching for Decision-Makers
Leadership is not just about strategy and structure—it is deeply human.
Emotions play a central role: uncertainties, conflicts, conflicting expectations, pressure, and responsibility.
The interplay between personal and professional matters can also be challenging.
The workplace is becoming more complex. Technological and societal change is accelerating, new structures and interdisciplinary teams are fundamentally reshaping leadership — clear hierarchies are giving way to dynamic networks.
Employees demand authenticity, meaning, and guidance in uncertain times, while the organization expects results and strategic development.
The necessity to remain emotionally present is increasing. It’s essential to manage pressure without losing oneself. At the same time, decisions must be made on uncertain foundations, bringing together reason and intuition.

With more than 15 years of experience as a coach, consultant and executive in international contexts, I combine psychological expertise and personality with in-depth knowledge of the realities in organizations and companies.
Smart sorting and weighing up is just as much a part of my practice as deep sensing and experiencing.
What my clients say about me
-
I came to Calvin for coaching through a friend at a very sensitive time. His gentle and empathetic manner made me feel 100% at ease and enabled me to delve deep into my personal issues.
Each time I was surprised at how quickly Calvin's methods enabled me to get to the heart of the matter and helped me to deal with difficult issues. I can only recommend Calvin's coaching to anyone.
-
A very warm-hearted and compassionate coach who also knows how to deal competently with very difficult issues. The main focus of my visits was help with changing jobs, and thanks to him I was able to resolve my fears and concerns and even managed to find a new job!
He was also able to help me with a private crisis situation that suddenly arose. Appointments were always arranged very quickly by email, even at short notice. My recommendation! If there is a need, I will gladly come back to Mr. Bartel.

My full and heartfelt recommendation: Calvin supports me empathetically, professionally, flexibly and always with suitable methods that relate to both emotional and technical aspects.
For me, Calvin is an absolute stroke of luck and I am grateful to have found him. In addition, the beautiful premises ensure that the collaboration takes place in a very pleasant atmosphere.
-
I attended Mr. Bartel's coaching sessions regularly for over a year from 2021 to 2022. During this time, I got to know him as a very professional, far-sighted person who can read between the lines.
He recognized problems and let me reflect on them with the right questions. In this way, with his help, I was able to approach some things in my life differently and leave the coaching session with added value.
-
My focus in our work is primarily on my professional development. However, we don't stay on the surface, but dive deep into psychodynamic theory and practice.
With his diverse experience and empathic nature, I have been able to courageously navigate my way through several job changes. He helped me to find myself and get to know myself better. 100% recommendation
