I have known Karl-Heinz (KH) for over five years now and have consulted with him professionally from time to time. What I have found to be quite unique and a big difference from other coaches is that KH makes it all personal and customized for you.

When I had my first consultation with KH I had a basic confusion regarding my various spheres of work. I had a great deal of dissatisfaction and was struggling with my activities. Something seemed to be out of order. I was successful but I didn't feel really good about it. I felt I was putting a huge amount of effort into it without any real feeling of satisfaction. What was missing? I couldn't tell but because I couldn't find the answers, the feeling persisted.

KH ran a customized program on me, one-on-one. At the end of the day, I had clarity and a compelling purpose to continue my work with certainty and order. The doubt had lifted. The real purpose aligned with my personality had come to the fore.

So now I know for sure that I will continue to be a motivational speaker and author. I know I can build a legacy around it. There was nothing wrong in what I was doing, but there was a big doubt about how I was doing it! Am I any good? I still had self-doubts, even though I knew I was the best in this field. Should I continue to do this or start another business? There were so many concerns.

After the coaching with KH, the way forward not only became clear but that same work which had been making me tired and frustrated suddenly became an immense joy to indulge in.

Having a clear purpose is vital but it is only one step. Moving on the path towards that stated purpose and achieving success is another. KH helped me to make strategic plans. He rolled out a working formula so I could organize my company in such a way that I could actually become a beneficiary of that orderly progress. What’s more I would have more time and the money with which to live my life.

With the help of this excellent organizing technology and formulas for improving conditions, I can now handle any and every challenge that may occur in my work.

We also handled the following:

• Sessions on understanding people.
• Communication drills.
• How to obtain more efficiency from employees.
• Spotting the people who are bringing the company down.
• Helping people stay motivated.
• Leadership training.
• Handling finances.
• General rules of creating success.

All these custom-made one-on-one sessions added immense value to sustain the morale and success of my team. It also allowed my company to achieve financial stability.

KH helped me creative with innovative and attention-getting strategies to create success with my books. They sky-rocketed to number one best-sellers and elevated me to India's top ten author's list. My training company rose to one of the top three companies in India. Not only that, KH helped me with specific strategies to create financial success with my business, which made me one of the top paid speakers and authors in the country.

KH's method of consulting is very unobtrusive. His communication skills are so superior that he makes it all sound like your idea, and that's how ownership of its application becomes a pleasure.

What I really love about KH is that he does not restrict his contribution to the consulting room. He would often give additional ideas or advice over a cup of coffee as a casual throw-away comment that could be the game changer for that project. For my latest book, KH gave one idea which proved to be the most valuable marketing tool. Many people became aware of the book and wanted to buy it even before its release.

This idea was formulated by KH during the coffee break. So you can imagine the intensity of his consulting when he is in session. KH has the amazing knack of pervading your troubled areas and coming up with solutions that fully handle the problem.

What is special about KH is the simplicity of his approach to problem-solving. My problems were big but his solutions were always simple and went to the basic root of the situation, which made them easy to implement. I have had many challenges with these problems but I have never had any challenges putting his solutions to work. I have seen so many projects fail because the solution was too complicated or too expensive or too overwhelming. KH's trick is simplicity.

When KH comes on board, he is there a 1000%. Even with a purely work-based project, he goes all out to add value. He looks after your health, your relationships and your overall well-being.

So what you get out of his consultancy is a 360 degree handling of your life!

On a more personal note, KH stands for what he preaches. He walks the talk. I have never ever seen him angry, or negative or upset or perturbed by any situation. And I have spent a lot of time with him. He has energy that can run a thousand horses. His enthusiasm is infectious. His presence itself brings about a strengthened resolve. Even before you start business with him, you have a feeling of well-being and that it will all go in the right direction. He has a vibe about him that calms the environment and makes it possible for you to see solutions. You will know that when you meet him.

I know this for sure, that KH is driven by worthy values and a powerful purpose to contribute meaningfully to other people's lives. Having known him for some years, I can see clearly that his goal is to make a better world and that happens beautifully when you help people make a better world for themselves!

I have always given KH the due credit for his contribution to my life and my career. My success comprises many of his idea in action. My happiness at work is sourced in the value-based strategic planning that has formed the proper foundation for my career. I have flourished and prospered in every project that he has lent his support to.

I have recommended KH to my close friends who are business tycoons in India and they are all of the same opinion. They have one-for-one, thanked me for introducing him to them. I continue to work with KH and would highly recommend him to those who want to build greater success at work as well as have a more meaningful and fulfilling life.
