"The ACE it! Program propelled myself and my business to new heights."

"In 2024, I completed the ACE it! Master Certification Program, propelling both myself and my business to new heights. This program, grounded in Design Thinking, is tailored to enhance problem-solving in everyday work scenarios. From optimizing teamwork efficiency to empowering teams to independently identify and solve issues, I acquired a comprehensive set of skills. Thank you for this unique experience!"

Mario Hempel

"Best training ever!"

"In my company, the ability to succeed by making others successful is gaining ground and is recognized as a necessary quality for managers. I have already been able to convince my team of the ACE it! approach in personal coaching, and ACE's have already become our second nature.

Also in my personal surroundings, I have recently acted as a valued coach in all walks of life. I am already looking forward to being able to apply my knowledge and methodology to the benefit of my clients in the post-epidemic period."

"So much value and fun!"

"The ACE it! Master Certification Program was precisely what I needed: a ready-to-use, fresh, and innovative learning approach to help me get my job done even better. With each session, I added yet another method to my coaching toolbox which I could immediately apply with my teams. This helped me in a very pragmatic, practical way: I learned that I need to focus more on addressing the challenges we really need to tackle to avoid falling into the trap of jumping to solutions too fast. Every tool is an icebreaker and brings people together.

I've already applied key learnings from this program to virtual European projects and I'm excited to spread the use of this methodology to support our leaders to become great talent developers."

"There is no challenge that can't be solved."

"My biggest takeaway from the Certification Program is that learning is a process and that no matter what challenge you face, the solution is "in the room". It just needs to be found.

There is no challenge that cannot be solved. Anything is possible if you are ready for a change of perspective, which means be able to perceive your counterpart in a different context and being open minded for new ideas."

Tushaar Bhatt
Entrepreneur and Co-Founder

"Very effective as a team!"

"My co-founder and I were fortunate to take part in this program together. For us, it was beneficial to become even more effective as a team. One things stands out: the ACE Process. It has become a powerful standard process to solve complex challenges, both big and small. Whether it is a challenge which we are facing internally or a problem we want to solve with our customers, it is always a great tool.

From an operational or strategic point of view, this is one of the most valuable takeaways."
