RECOGNITION
What comes naturally is often hardest to recognise.
You may already be known as the person who takes ownership, creates momentum, connects people or brings order to complexity. Because these patterns come naturally, you may not recognise them as a distinctive contribution. And because they have helped you succeed, you may keep reaching for them even when the situation needs something else.
Your strengths do not need fixing.
FLOW helps you recognise the pattern, choose the right dosage and give other strengths more room when the work calls for them.
Example FLOW cards · Your printed set is personalised to your strengths profile.
REFRAME
Your strengths work best at the right volume.
One possible mix — for this work, this moment and these people.
Your strengths do not operate as separate labels. They work together, like channels on a mixing desk. In one situation, Responsibility may need to lead. In another, Strategic, Individualization or Deliberative may need more volume. Deliberate strengths use means choosing the right mix for the work, the moment and the people involved.
FLOW does not treat you as an optimisation project. It considers both your patterns and the environment in which they are rewarded, overlooked or overused. The aim is not to standardise how you work, but to give you more choice about which strength should lead, support or step back.
APPLICATION
Knowing your strengths is useful. Applying them deliberately creates greater choice.
FLOW connects your profile to one practical question:
Where will you apply this learning now?
RECOGNISE
Name the patterns behind your best work and the contribution they make possible.
Recognise overuse earlier and adjust before one strength carries the whole load.
APPLY
Choose a strength or combination deliberately for a live work situation.
Communicate priorities, requests, boundaries and working conditions more clearly.
TRANSFER
Bring more precise language into development, role and career conversations.
Define observable signs that show whether the learning is becoming part of how you work.
Career Capital is one result of this process:
contribution that you can recognise, explain and carry into future choices.
Its value also shows up in the work you are doing now — in how you decide, collaborate, communicate and develop.
CLIENT VOICES
What stayed with them after FLOW.
I had explored my strengths before, but coaching with Katharina helped me see them in a new way — not as separate traits, but as an inner team I can use more consciously depending on the situation.
ALEXANDRA · FLOW PARTICIPANT
FLOW was much more than a strengths conversation — it was a whole journey. Without the eight weeks, much of it would probably have faded. The personal questions made my strengths present and tangible.
FLOW PARTICIPANT
WHO FLOW IS FOR
Is FLOW right for you?
FLOW is for women who already bring a great deal to their work — but want to understand it more clearly, express it more precisely and use it more deliberately.
want to make more deliberate choices about collaboration, energy, boundaries and working conditions;
already have a strengths profile, but it still feels abstract;
want a strengths-based foundation for a larger career, performance or leadership question.
want clearer language for the value you create;
are entering a new role, project or development phase;
keep relying on the same strengths, even when the situation needs something different;
You do not need a particular title, career level or leadership role. What matters is that you have a real question and a place in your working life where you want to apply what you learn.
YOUR FLOW JOURNEY
A profile gives you insight.
FLOW helps you put it to work.
FLOW is a personal, guided journey that usually spans around ten weeks — from your initial preparation through eight weeks of application to the final Transfer Call.
PREPARE
Your CliftonStrengths profile and individual preparation give us a starting point grounded in your real work and questions — not only in generic strengths descriptions.
UNDERSTAND
In your Personal Strengths Conversation, we explore how your strengths work together: where they create energy and value, where they may be underused and where they can become too loud.

TRANSFER
45 minutes
In the final Transfer Call, we bring your learning together in your FLOW Manual, agree a 90-day focus and define two or three observable signs that show the learning is becoming part of how you work.
HELLO, I’M KATHARINA.
Your strengths do not operate in isolation.
I bring more than three decades of experience in global corporate environments, including at Senior Director level. I understand what it means to deliver, lead and navigate organisations whose expectations are not always written down.
As a certified strengths coach and ICF-credentialed Career and Leadership Coach, I combine this experience with professional coaching practice.
I do not treat a strengths profile as a complete explanation of who you are. It is one valuable lens — alongside your experience, ambitions, energy, relationships and working environment.
In FLOW, we connect your strengths to the situations in which you actually need them — and explore what enables you to use them with greater choice.

FOUNDING INVESTMENT
€500
including VAT
Three places are available at this
funding investment until
18 October 2026.
The regular investment after the founding launch will be
€690 including VAT.
In an introductory conversation, we look at where you are now, what you want to understand and whether FLOW fits the question you are bringing.
EMPLOYER FUNDING
Could your employer fund FLOW?
FLOW begins with your development question — regardless of who ultimately pays for the programme. If FLOW fits what you want to work on, you can fund the journey privately or ask your employer to cover the investment.
Employer funding is most likely when you can connect FLOW to a current role, project, team, stakeholder situation or development need.
A credible funding request explains:
where you will apply what you learn
01
why this matters in your current role, team or project
02
03
what useful change could look like in your everyday work
who can support the development and approve the budget
04
To make that conversation easier, I can provide you with:
01
a concise email for your manager or HR partner
02
a one-page overview of FLOW
03
a conversation guide to help you prepare your request
Your employer may agree a work-related development goal with you. Your strengths profile, personal reflections and coaching conversations remain confidential unless you choose to share a summary.
Frequently asked questions
FAQ
-
No. FLOW can begin with a new CliftonStrengths profile or help you deepen an existing profile that has remained interesting but abstract. The value of FLOW lies in translating your results into deliberate application.
-
No. FLOW is an individual, guided journey. You work with me directly during your Personal Strengths Conversation and Transfer Call, and you receive personal feedback throughout the eight weeks of application.
-
No. FLOW does not choose a job for you. It helps you understand how your strengths work together and how to apply them more deliberately to the work, decisions and situations in front of you.
If your central question is what you want to do next — or how to redesign your career — CREATE may be the better place to begin.
-
No. FLOW helps you articulate your contribution more clearly and use your strengths more deliberately. Visibility, promotion and other organisational decisions also depend on context, relationships and the system around you.
-
Your employer may agree a work-related development goal and signs of transfer with you. Your strengths profile, personal reflections and coaching conversations remain confidential unless you choose to share a summary.
-
No. FLOW is not tied to a particular career level or formal talent designation. What matters is that the programme fits the question you are bringing. If your employer is funding FLOW, you will also need a relevant work application, someone who supports the development and a route for budget approval.
