Ralf Nuppenau

Coach, Mentor, Trainer at Stärkenblick

Frankfurt am Main, Deutschland
Leadership
Stärkenorientierung
Unternehmertum

Ich suche Journalistinnen und Journalisten, die zu den Themen Persönlichkeitsentwicklung in der Führung, stärkenorientiertes Arbeiten, professionelle Menschlichkeit im Führungsalltag und die Wirkung authentischer Führung auf Teams recherchieren. Ich bringe drei Jahrzehnte Berufserfahrung mit, davon 15 Jahre in verschiedenen Führungsrollen. Seit 30 Jahren arbeite ich mit unterschiedlichen Ansätzen der Stärkenorientierung und bin seit 2019 intensiv in der Persönlichkeitsentwicklung tätig. Ich bin ausgebildeter psychologischer Berater, Businesscoach und zertifizierter Stärkentrainer. In meiner Arbeit begleite ich erfahrene Führungspersonen, Geschäftsführer und Unternehmer, die keinen klassischen Führungskurs suchen, sondern einen persönlichen Ansatz, mit dem sie Führung über Persönlichkeit, Haltung und individuelle Stärken entwickeln möchten. Parallel zu meiner Coachingaufgabe habe ich 2025 ein weiteres Unternehmen gegründet. Dieses hat sich zur Aufgabe gemacht, beeinträchtigte Kinder und Jugendliche vor allem im Schulalltag zu unterstützen. Mein Team und ich leisten damit einen wichtigen gesellschaftlichen Beitrag. Ich kann fundierte Aussagen geben zu den Risiken rein fachlich orientierter Führung, zu den Mustern, nach denen Teams Vertrauen oder Distanz aufbauen, zu den Effekten eines stärkenorientierten Führungsstils und zu den Entwicklungswegen, die Führung wirklich verändern statt nur Tools zu vermitteln. Für Interviews, Einschätzungen oder Hintergrundgespräche stehe ich kurzfristig bereit.

D.R. Weber

Executive Corporate Trainer at drwebercoaching

Beverly Hills, CA, USA
Helping leaders grow as their organizations scale, with deep expertise in body language analysis, executive presence, charisma, communication risk, influence, nonverbal communication, trust-building, executive leadership, executive education, and navigating difficult conversations.

Don Weber is a global communication strategist, human intelligence (HUMINT) expert, and executive coach whose life tells a story of survival, reinvention, and mastery. For over 15 years, he worked in international intelligence operations across 90+ countries, operating under multiple identities and navigating environments where one wrong move could have easily cost him his life or worse. During his years as a U.S. government field operative under the George Bush administration, Don gathered intelligence across South America, Africa, and Europe, working with organized crime figures, foreign agents, and volatile political networks. One of his covers placed him in Antwerp’s diamond trade circles and other uniquely challenging environments, where he learned to build rapport across diverse groups others could not. After leaving intelligence work, he dedicated his life to helping others communicate authentically and lead with awareness. Over the past decade, he has become one of Europe’s most respected executive communication coaches, training royalty, EU diplomats, ambassadors, senior politicians, and Fortune 500 executives across major European capitals. Trained in martial arts for real-life situations, Don learned techniques to disable or neutralize threats when necessary. He combines that practical training with lifelong meditation practice, blending the discipline of combat with the stillness of mindfulness to create a grounded, authentic approach to leadership and communication.
