Was Albinas Klienten sagen
„I met Albina exactly two years ago, just a few months before my second child was born. I was looking for someone who could help me find the right balance between my work and my personal life, between personal and professional goals, and to elevate my relationships with other people to a new level.
After several mentoring sessions focusing on relationships, I realised that Albina can also help me solve various professional issues through coaching. We worked with her on setting goals, creating and implementing a plan, setting the right priorities, and taking steps towards the big vision. In the last two years, I have improved my relationships with my most important people and am currently happy and content all around, have been promoted at work, and passed the globally recognised professional certification.
As a working mother, I wanted to find a role model, and I was lucky enough to meet Albina. Thank you very much.“
Vice President, Senior Quantitative Analyst, Switzerland
„I am very grateful to Albina for the work she has carried out. Albina is a true professional in her field. Our mastermind meetings and personal mentoring sessions were very inspiring and provided me with a wealth of information on all my concerns.
Mastermind and the Woman Club are truly effective and lead to amazing results in a short amount of time: I've returned to my own „self” and realised my true self-worth. Stress has receded into the background and I've received great tools to reduce it. I've found time for myself and have become more feminine, now I take deep breaths and enjoy my life every day. I've learned to say „no” when I feel uncomfortable, and always say „yes” to myself.“
Partner and Co-owner of Ernst & Young, Germany
„What particularly struck me in my coaching session with Albina was her strong active listening skills, as well as her very good, activating questions, which enabled me to think in new ways and broadened my perspective very early on in the process. She kept me focused and concentrated, gave me space to develop my ideas and voice them aloud, while paraphrasing the results back to me and reminding me of the original goal. Despite the limited coaching time, I achieved what I wanted, namely concrete, actionable steps that I can build upon. Great coaching, thank you very much!“
Transformation Manager & Global Leadership Expert, Germany
„I had the opportunity to work with Albina in 2023 and am truly grateful for her partnership. I greatly appreciated her structured approach where she defined the areas I really wanted to focus on, and then kept us on track and on topic during each session. For leaders, it's already a challenge to find time for personal development, let alone prepare for each session. This is where I see the important skill of a coach to shift the focus from daily business to oneself. Albina helped me to stay on track and focus on the plan we defined. Furthermore, I find it important that the coach actively steers the discussion so that we can slow down, concentrate, or move on and keep brainstorming as needed. I wish Albina all the best and look forward to our future conversations.“
Senior Vice President, Head of EMEA region, UAE
„I had the pleasure of working with Albina for several months. I was truly impressed with Albina's ability to look beneath the surface and provide moments of insight on professional topics with full trust and confidence. I can highly recommend her as a coach for further development of seniority and professional maturity.“
