WHAT OUR PARTICIPANTS SAY ON GOOGLE
Der HPS-Kurs „Train the Trainer“ war hervorragend! Die Inhalte wurden praxisnah, verständlich und abwechslungsreich vermittelt. Besonders überzeugt haben mich die professionelle Durchführung, die wertvollen Tipps und die angenehme Atmosphäre. Ich konnte viele neue Impulse für meine zukünftige Trainertätigkeit mitnehmen. Absolut empfehlenswert!
Drei Tage, die den Unterschied machen! Ich habe an dem dreitägigen Seminar „Business Rhetorik" bei Vera-Satshiko und ihrer Co-Trainerin Stefanie teilgenommen und kann es nur wärmstens empfehlen. Der Vergleich zwischen meiner Präsentation am ersten Tag und der am dritten Tag ist enorm, der Fortschritt ist wirklich beeindruckend. Wir waren eine Gruppe von acht Personen, und jede einzelne hat in diesen drei Tagen große Fortschritte gemacht. Gelernt haben wir unter anderem den bewussten Einsatz von Gestik und Stimme, das richtige Setzen von Pausen, einen klaren Aufbau der Rede und den Umgang mit Einwänden. Und das ist noch lange nicht alles. Dank der vielen praktischen Übungen und des professionellen, motivierenden Feedbacks von Vera-Satshiko und Stefanie kann man das Gelernte direkt anwenden. Ein bisschen Mut gehört dazu und es lohnt sich absolut! Ich komme sehr gerne wieder. :)

Our leadership trainings at a glance
HPS offers modular leadership training programs organized into three distinct tracks: Leading Self, Leading People, and Leading the Arena. The training programs are designed to help leaders not only learn methods but also measurably strengthen their mindset, communication skills, and impact—from one-on-one conversations to major decisions made in management meetings.
Leading Self – Responsibility & Focus
This self-leadership training prepares leaders for what modern leadership truly demands: self-leadership, clarity about one’s own role, and the conscious management of impact. You will reflect on where you stand in your development, how you balance your focus between yourself, your team, and the organization—and how you consistently embody leadership in your day-to-day work.
- Sharpening roles & responsibilities
- Setting priorities—remaining capable of action amid complexity
- Targeting development and ensuring transfer
KODE® Leadership Profile – Analysis & Development Focus
With the KODE® Leadership Profile, you establish a professional foundation for leadership development. You gain a clear picture of your strengths, potential, and areas for development—and define concrete steps for building your skills in a targeted manner. Ideal as a starting point or catalyst for a leadership journey.
- Competency profile with strengths and development areas
- Focus on the 3 most important levers for development
- Individual development plan for sustainable growth
Leadership Talk – Leadership conversations that provide direction
Leadership is demonstrated through conversations. In this performance review training, managers learn how to conduct leadership conversations in a way that fosters clarity, trust, and action. They work on conversation structure, language, and agreements—and practice how to remain composed even under pressure.
- Conversation structure for one-on-one, goal-setting, and development discussions
- Effectively communicating expectations, priorities, and standards
- Reaching agreements—ensuring follow-up and implementation
Skill/Will Leadership – Leading employees as individuals
People need different types of leadership. In this leadership training, managers learn to lead employees in a way that suits the situation—depending on whether someone is able or willing. They apply the “Skill/Will” logic to real-life scenarios and practice four clear leadership strategies: motivating, delegating, coaching, and instructing.
- Skill/Will Assessment – Quick and accurate Evaluation
- Identifying and addressing motivations and resistance
- Confidently applying and practicing 4 leadership strategies
Lead the Room - Leading meetings effectively as a leader
Meetings are leadership in action. In this meeting training, managers learn to actively steer group processes: dynamics, resistance, dominant behavior, and decision-making. They practice facilitation techniques, clear meeting management, and the ability to guide discussions toward concrete results.
- Structuring and efficiently leading meetings
- Steering group dynamics—using resistance constructively
- Facilitating decisions and securing next steps
Change Stories – Developing goals and communicating change effectively
Leadership in times of change is all about communication. In this Change Story training, leaders learn how to articulate goals and changes in a way that provides teams with direction and purpose. They develop clear core messages, build a compelling change story, and embed it in everyday work—so that change is not only understood but actively supported.
- Derive goals from strategy and formulate them precisely
- Develop a change story (core message, structure, storyboards)
- Embed communication – ensure implementation within the team
High Impact Presentations – Winning over stakeholders
When it counts, it’s the impact of your presentation that matters. This high-impact presentation training empowers executives to win over stakeholders at the management or client level. You’ll learn to distill content, build a clear storyline, and confidently answer even critical questions—from status updates to strategic presentations.
- Storyline & key message – clear, concise, compelling
- Designing effective executive briefings & management updates
- Confidently handling Q&A and objections under pressure
Executive Presence – Impact, voice, and presence
Executive presence isn’t about putting on a show—it’s about making a controlled impact. In this executive presence training, leaders develop a distinctive presence: posture, body language, voice, and inner stability. They learn to remain composed even when facing adversity, to respond clearly, and to project visible authority as leaders—bulletproof, without raising their voices or putting on a show.
- 100% confidence – Projecting stability, even under pressure
- Personal presence profile – Targeted refinement of impact, voice, and posture
- Reaction Skills in critical moments – Staying clear-headed, maintaining authority
