Support people.
Open perspectives.

Analytical thinking. Attentive listening. Practical next steps.

Professional questions, relationships and everyday demands are often connected. Nils Brandau helps people make sense of these connections, organise their thoughts, take their own needs seriously and explore possible actions. Feelings are part of the conversation alongside facts.

His career spans research, management consulting, and group strategy and innovation management at Volkswagen. He also lived and worked in Canada for several years. These perspectives inform his support for personal and professional change.

In student coaching, he combines clear explanations with learning structure and encouragement. His experience includes teaching mathematics and physics and tutoring university students. The aim is to approach difficulties with increasing independence and develop confidence in one’s own thinking.

Recognise strengths. Shape responsibility. Find an individual path.

Which role suits a person’s abilities? Which expectations help, and which conflict with their own goals? Verena Brenner supports professional decisions, new leadership responsibilities and the search for greater personal clarity.

As a managing director, she helped build PROTH!NX within the HDI/Talanx environment. She developed an international team and brought software products from initial idea to market. She draws on this experience when exploring responsibility, professional change and practical next steps.

She also supports young people considering apprenticeships, university and work. The focus is on recognising their own interests and strengths and distinguishing them from other people’s expectations. Her experience mentoring emerging professionals and running seminars for master’s students informs this work.
