Exponential coaching for exponential performance

I am your partner for exponential success. As a trusted advisor, sparring partner, and coach for high-ranking executives who take on particularly challenging and complex leadership tasks, I help you bring clarity to your professional and personal situation. 

My name is Johannes Bayer (PhD).

Our clients

 1. Executives who take on extremely challenging positions

 2. Companies that want to set their executives on a successful course from day one

The problem

Transitioning to the next leadership position can feel like driving at 120 mph in dense fog, trying to anticipate the next exit…

Success uncertain… Little clarity and control, high expectations, everything different, performance pressure…

Our support for you

We help our clients find answers to two core questions to clear the fog:

What is going on here and what is the next step?

The result

More clarity and control for you, your teams and your organisation = more bottom line results.

Working with us you gain clarity regarding situation, strategy, organization, priorities, core competencies, team, sustainable performance, and goal-oriented measures. You create added value faster, appear even more confident, communicate even more clearly, make complex decisions more easily, and deliver results faster and more successfully with your team.

Experience that makes a difference

My experiences and roles that have made me what I am today. I am known for helping people create exponential results. With my experience as a competitive rower, banker, financial advisor, marathon runner, academic, and long-time executive in the international supply chain of a large American company, I bring a unique perspective and 45 years of life and professional experience to our collaboration. I have lived and worked in Germany, Spain, Scotland, and England, and have designed and implemented operational and strategic projects worth several million dollars in the areas of supply chain, logistics, customer operations, and customer service. Since 2016, I have dedicated myself to coaching and have founded Phoenix Executive Onboarding and Impossible Grand Slam.

The clients who call me face complex challenges. They know that to accelerate they need a trusted advisor, expert, and coach. They understand that the skills that made them successful are no guarantee of success for the future. They are ready for the next level of success and ready to invest in themselves and their company.
