"Attentive and active listening creates trust and helps to get to know and understand different points of view".
In my interactions with people, it is very important to me to create a good climate for discussion and debate that is characterised by openness and constructive cooperation. Regular reflections in the meetings help to explore the value of what has been learned and to flexibly adapt the approach as needed. The systemic approach is always at the forefront of what we do. Accompaniment and encouragement characterise my working style. At the end of my work I look forward to feedback. And if this feedback is "That did me good" or "That brought me further", it fills me with joy.
