of their time, that is all leaders need to invest to master lasting leadership transformation in the remaining 95% of their time. At VERTICAL we seek not to disrupt, but to evolve businesses – with efficiency, scalability and immediate impact.

to the power of transformation, that is the VERTICAL formula. And this formula roots in a truth well known: the whole is greater than the sum of its parts – if the parts are chosen with care. VERTICAL combines ground-breaking ideas from a broad range of disciplines, from physical trainings, flow techniques and mindset modification to innovative approaches in management sciences, all with the greater goal of boosting performance through a human-centered concept of leadership – for realizing progress not gradually, but exponentially.

negative stress or burnout – that is our promise. The VERTICAL program takes the time profound positive changes really need ... and offers clear guidelines, close mentorship and regular feedback throughout the transformation process, sometimes challenging, but never overstraining leaders.

days – that is, according to cognitive sciences, all the time needed to see the first positive results from establishing positive change in leadership and entrepreneurial culture. But only when this transformation is embraced by all business units of a company, we see our mission as accomplished. That is why VERTICAL stays with you, over several cycles spanning 90 days, deeply rooted in the work routines of your company. This way, target-oriented feedback loops help to reinforce transformation processes, right where they begin: in the minds and hearts that make companies.

for all: we believe that everyone has the ability to become one with the own inner self, allowing to harmonize inner motivation and common sense with profits in the outside world. Only by actively accessing our own emotions, mindsets and beliefs are we able to substantially change who we are. This is the royal road to maturing into more self-aware and more effective leaders, writing their very own growth narrative with confidence, not letting strains and aims imposed by the outside world interfere.

100%

effectiveness – that is the benchmark for our trainings. And we do set this benchmark with confidence, as our trainings always consider every aspect of an individual to 100%. VERTICAL enables success through a thorough exploration of the natural codes for personal growth that are programmed into each of us. Instead of elite trainings focusing on partial aspects of personal enhancement, we harness the most recent findings of neurobiology to achieve fundamental transformation – for everyone.

Personal development for the leaders of tomorrow.

With digitalization accelerating, the emergence of new business models and a growing complexity of markets are inevitable. To meet these challenges, creating a whole new leadership culture is crucial, centered around individuals with their specific talents and skills as to keep up with the transformation of markets, without burning out.

Trust and empathy are increasingly replacing hierarchical leadership structures as fuel for entrepreneurial success, which today is not least defined by social impact, as mirrored by a positive work atmosphere and innovative agility. CEOs and leaders today more than ever depend on the ability to „just let go” – and empower employees to more self-guidance and self-management, to be at the top of their game at any time, even under stress and distraction. Only if a leader invests in the individual strengths of a staff member will this staff member self-reliantly find and evolve a better version of her- or himself, and not only accept, but embrace true responsibility. And where individuals grow within a company, the company will automatically grow with them.

NEW
LEASDERSHIP

But: how do we reliably enforce new leadership qualities and skills?

At VERTICAL, it is our conviction that "new leadership" needs orientation, a compass of self-determination to follow the new rules of engagement in the world of business – with ease, creativity and courage. But without stress, fear and external pressure.

Our hearts and minds go out to businesses encouraging leadership to unleash individual potentials, securing future growth beyond conventional definitions of success. Based on this positive concept of growth, we begin our trainings at the very top, enabling leaders to write their very own transformation narrative – and lead themselves, their teams and their company to heights unimagined before. 

Anyone can learn transformation
Let’s talk about how we can support you - free of charge and without any obligations.

“Imagine a world in which all live up to the best version of themselves

Our guarantee: mastering outer transformation through inner evolution.
What VERTICAL does differently, so you can do better:

Bewusstsein-03

Taking control

By working from the inside out, we support our customers in overcoming outside pressure to become the creators of their own growth narrative. We enable deep regeneration, free energy resources and activate access to emotions. Our customers become the masters of their own mindset, as bold leaders in an ever-changing world, making a real difference in this world with joy and ease.

Training-02

Training – not therapy

VERTICAL is never looking for problems, but for potentials. Because change is never achieved through talking alone, but through experience and acting in self-awareness. That is why we pose specific conversion challenges for participants of our program in cycles of 90, 180 and 270 days, enabling leaders to achieve the best version of themselves, on their own, at their own will and on every given day.

Accelerator-02

Scaled to accelerate

Not simply fast, but accelerated learning, that is our goal. To speed up the leap to the next level we rely on a broad range of basic methods: safe spaces for reflection, peer feedback and action learning for hands-on experiential learning or our 14 days intensive sessions, in which we combine knowledge inputs with deep dives into studies and contributions of leading scientists – all available for autonomous learning 24/7 on our digital platform.

Multimethodisch-02

Commited to the very best

At VERTICAL, we don’t simply offer an arbitrary mix of methods but are committed to a homogeneous program derived from the world’s leading methods for personal growth and transformation guidance – scientifically founded and repeatedly proven, interdisciplinary and applicable for everyone.

Mensch-02

Minding the body

The complex interaction between mind and body is no longer just a philosophical assumption, but a scientific fact. Through the lens of sophisticated embodiment techniques and sustainable mindset alterations we keep a well-balanced perspective on body and mind alike, to guarantee the development of no less than 100% of the human potential.

Berechenbar-01

Tried and tested

We want you to really rely on us – and that is exactly why we do not simply rely on our own high standards, but on the assessments of external professionals to certify the impact of the VERTICAL program. Just the same way that we certify your progress in our 90 days review cycles.
