It was always a pleasure to work with Bob.
In terms of working across cultures, there is nothing he hasn’t seen or couldn’t deal with.
He is not only highly experienced and knowledgeable, especially in international project settings, he also has quite a gift to work with groups and create awareness for the cultural difficulties in human communication.
Apart from the professional value he provides to his clients, he is also pleasant to work with and really just a nice and fun guy. I hope our paths cross again in the future.
Bob is an excellent coach to work with.
He is very resourceful and has a broad experience to create a practical development plan very quickly. He will help you to see the topic from both a strategic and more operational level.
On a more personal level, he has great sense of humour and it’s real fun to work together. Bob is an excellent coach to work with.

Bob is an outstanding professional who knows his subject extremely well.
He has become very knowledgeable of our business which is a great asset as this makes our conversations very sharp, effective and efficient.
He is living up to what he is teaching by actively listening to everyone, asking questions, clarifying and he is also giving feedback – both, constructive and positive. But Bob over the many years we are working together also turned into a friend who you can count on 100 % when you need him – be it for his advise, support or to get things done at very short notice.
He is a very curious person and has a genuine interest in people.
Few people I know treat words and their meaning with care – that’s Bob.
As a teacher and a mentor, Bob earns my highest recommendation.
I had the pleasure of working with him during workshops & our Gdansk MBA alumni meeting on communication in Gdansk. HIS D.I.E. model gave me the strong impulse to change how I think about communication and push to understand other peoples’ viewpoint. I really enjoy working with him. I am particularly impressed by Bob’s mindfulness and ability to handle students’ interest’ on what he says at the highest level.
A very experienced coach with strong focus on individuals with cross-boarder responsibilities.
Highly supportive and agile to understand client needs and requirements. It’s his extraordinary quality that solves problems and helps the client come to a new level understanding of what is possible.
He has the skill and talent to influence and guide others to make real breakthroughs and create lasting change.
I have worked with Bob in his capacity as a Global Executive Coach.
Bob is very adept at listening, translating and probing on a wide range of matters relevant to dynamic global organizations. This led to very thought provoking, purposeful outcomes.
His skill set and reference points specific to international topics are relevant and extensive. I also found his sensitivity to the importance of “culture” in today’s world to be particularly strong. This balance provided the backdrop and context for our discussions across a range of international issues; this was coupled with an ability to challenge established thinking and distil highly complex global issues into actionable messages.
I am in no doubt that my time working with Bob has been a contributing factor to the success of my team and myself.
With Bob’s inspiration, coaching and support, everything seems simpler and understandable.
He offers a perfect balance between business knowledge and his personal skills that allows him to impact people easily.
Working and living in this VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambigous) world represents a big challenge for any Manager. Bob has been my International Coach for a year and I appreciate his help and dedication, needless to say he has helped me become a better professional.
I really enjoy working with Bob. He understands the challenges in international projects and is coaching our team in a very positive way. I’m impressed to see how Bob can increase the effectiveness of communication in a global organization in such a short timeframe.
He helps our organization focussing on effective communication between cross-functional and global talents. He is very inspiring and helps our new Leadership team members become half glass full leaders in a very dynamic and global environment.
I’m very pleased and look forward to continuing our work with Bob!
Bob’s extensive knowledge and experience with his content is remarkable.
He has represented a high level empathy and professionalism during our collaboration. His dedication as a coach has made a world of difference in all aspects of my life. He was able quickly assess my career goals, needs and aspirations and work with me to put a plan in place that softly but persistently facilitates rise in skills by showing the benefits and sense of new approaches.
Each our communication was pleasant, highly efficient, challenging and following the overall coaching goal. I was well served with additional learning, training materials, practice and provided great support during my transformation.
The sessions with Bob were thoughtful, open and an item in my calendar I always looked forward to.
Within just several hours, Bob has helped me shape (& understand) my ambitions, helped me make choices and gave me a great energy boost to take important steps in my career. And, he helped me understand the power of listening, and what being a leader actually means.
I will be forever grateful for his wise lessons and his never-lacking attention and interest in me as a coachee.
Bob has been doing tremendous work for the Zurich Group.
