Meet your Coach
Hi, my name is Jan Krueder.
I believe that you have the potential for exceptional growth and success. Therefore, I would love to take you on a transformative journey towards your personal and professional fulfilment.
How I became a Coach
My professional journey started in the mid-1990s when I took on my first role as an ambitious aerospace engineer. As time passed, I quickly learned that the path ahead wouldn’t be a straightforward one. I came to realize that my own growth and self-discovery would play a pivotal role in shaping my career. Looking back at my corporate experience, I had the privilege of learning from both exemplary leaders and those who fell short. What became clear is that personal success is often tied more to how we navigate our inner challenges than the external hurdles we face.
Over the past 30 years, I’ve taken on various leadership positions across the world. I had the priviledge of leading teams in various European countries, such as Germany, France, UK, and Romania, as well as the United States, the Middle East, and Australia. This background has given me insights from multiple cultures and every rung of the corporate ladder. From observing the resilience of underdogs to witnessing high-potential individuals stumble, I’ve found that the ability to overcome personal barriers greatly influences a person’s growth and success.
While closely working with teams and individuals across cultural boundaries, the most rewarding moments for me occured when I saw individuals or teams that I have supported in discovering their full potential, actually thrive and being successful in reaching their goals.
Coaching as a Passion
At a certain point of my corporate career, however, my own path reached a crossroads. Despite outward achievements, I felt a void and a sense of dissatisfaction. Consequently, I more and more grappled with the conflict btw my corporate responsibilities as a manager and my desire to focus more on supporting individuals and teams to grow. At the same time, my 25-year-long marriage came to a painful end. This prompted an intense journey of self-discovery that introduced me to the transformative power of coaching. This turning point inspired me to make a life-altering decision, to become a coach myself and to tun my passion into my profession.
Driven by a longstanding desire to support and guide others in their growth journey, I therefore pursued training and certification as a coach. Today, I work with clients—individuals and teams alike—and partner with them in their quest for self-awareness, empowerment, and growth. Together, we dismantle internal barriers, navigate obstacles, and work towards achieving their aspirations. Just as coaching has reshaped my own life, I’m dedicated to helping others chart their own course towards personal and professional fulfillment.
My approach to coaching revolves around helping clients harness their strengths, overcoming limiting beliefs, and crafting practical strategies for reaching their objectives. I firmly hold the belief that each individual has the capacity for exceptional achievement. The key to unleashing this potential is rooted in recognizing one's unique abilities, nurturing personal development, and shaping a definitive outlook for what lies ahead.
My Approach to Coaching
As a coach, my approach is centered on providing tailor-made guidance and unwavering support that caters to the unique needs and ambitions of each individual or team. This personalized method ensures that our coaching sessions are not only impactful but also energizing and enjoyable, laying a solid foundation for lasting achievements. By collaboratively delving into your strengths, values, and passions, I facilitate the creation of a clear roadmap for your personal and professional journey. This path aligns with your authentic purpose and untapped potential.
Core Energy Coaching
What sets my coaching style apart is my offer to integrate Core Energy Coaching principles and the Energy Leadership™ Index (ELI). Core Energy Coaching delves deep into clients’ core beliefs and emotional triggers, uncovering blocks and propelling positive transformation. This approach empowers clients to recognize their energy levels and shift from reactive patterns to proactive choices, enhancing their overall effectiveness and resilience. The Energy Leadership™ Index offers valuable insights into clients’ leadership styles, helping them understand how they show up in various situations and hence offering a roadmap for growth. Combined, these tools empower clients to make lasting shifts in their mindset, behavior, and energy, creating sustainable change that drives success.

My commitment to my clients’ success goes beyond our sessions. I am dedicated to staying current with industry trends and best practices. Therefore, I can offer the most effective guidance and support. By engaging in continuous professional development and actively participating in coaching networks, I maintain a fresh perspective and a wealth of knowledge that I am enthusiastic to share with my clients.
In my coaching approach, I incorporate the transformative principles of Core Energy Coaching. This dynamic methodology delves deep into understanding the underlying forces that shape our actions and decisions. The empowering approach not only identifies and dissolves energy-draining patterns, but furthermore opens new pathways for growth, enabling my clients to realize their aspirations with renewed clarity and vitality.
Team Coaching and Workshop Facilitation
In addition to individual coaching, my expertise extends to catalyzing remarkable transformations within teams. Through dynamic workshops and focused facilitation, I guide teams towards enhanced performance, seamless collaboration, and strategic decision-making. With a deep understanding of diverse markets, I create tailored experiences that harness collective strengths and cultivate an environment of mutual respect.
Team Workshops
In workshops designed to elevate team performance, I foster a culture of effective communication and collaboration. By delving into each team members’ unique qualities, we unearth the synergistic potential that lies within the group. Ultimately this enhances productivity and fosters a shared sense of purpose. When it comes to strategy and decision-making processes, I lead teams through comprehensive analyses, empowering them to make informed choices that align with both their short-term goals and long-term vision.
My approach revolves around enabling teams to harness their collective energy, equipping them with tools and insights to tackle challenges head-on and drive growth. The culmination of these efforts results in teams that not only achieve their objectives but also foster a cohesive, supportive, and high-performing atmosphere.
In team coaching and workshops, I foster dynamic collaboration to help teams ignite collective potential. Whether navigating complex decisions or charting strategic courses, my coaching propels teams towards shared success. Consequently, such fortified bonds help teams to set the stage for future achievements.
Experience in Leadership and Coaching
My coaching practice is driven by a resolute ambition: to leave an indelible mark on the lives I touch. With 30 years of experience in impactful leadership roles, I offer not just individual guidance, but also facilitate transformative workshops and harness the principles of Core Energy Coaching to invigorate teams and individuals alike. I am committed to tailoring coaching experiences that fuel genuine growth, fostering collaboration and cultivating innate strengths. Through ongoing professional development, I ensure my guidance remains relevant and fresh. My coaching philosophy centers on empowering clients to embrace strengths, conquer challenges, and craft actionable strategies, propelling them towards enduring success and fulfillment.
