    #42 Discovering the True Essence of Leadership: Understanding the Inner Self, Resolving Contradictions, and Making the Good Visible. A Conversation with Anschi Sailer of White Company

    I have had the pleasure of working closely with Anschi Sailer for nearly 15 years. Throughout that time, she has made extensive use of profilingvalues and has also integrated it into her latest project, which addresses a challenge that is becoming increasingly relevant in today’s working world. Her focus is on leaders who experience burnout, struggle with depression, or have lost their sense of purpose and meaning. In many cases, the roots of these challenges can be traced back to a lack of guidance and support from the very beginning of their leadership journey. Even today, it is still common for people to be promoted into leadership positions only to find themselves increasingly isolated and left to navigate the challenges on their own. To address this issue, Anschi has developed a dedicated year-long program designed to support leaders in reconnecting with themselves, discovering their inner strengths, and developing a healthier and more sustainable approach to leadership. Elements of this program are also shared through a series of concise podcast episodes, which naturally became part of our conversation. We also explore Anschi’s professional roots in sales and discuss the essential lessons that can be learned from this field—not only for business success but for life in general. Along the way, our discussion touches on philosophical questions about meaning, personal growth, self-awareness, and the importance of recognizing the good within ourselves and others. An inspiring conversation about leadership, purpose, resilience, and the lifelong journey of becoming more fully human. Rating: Thought-provoking, inspiring, and deeply human.

    #41 Values on the Rise: 15 Years of profilingvalues – A Journey, a Reflection, and a Vision for the Future

    In 2008, I was first introduced to the Hartman Value Profile (HVP), although at the time I had no real understanding of what the assessment actually was. Unfortunately, I had fallen victim to a fraudster who presented Robert S. Hartman’s brilliant mathematical theory of values as his own creation. After a few months, I recognized the deception and decided to develop my own application of the HVP through profilingvalues. At the same time, I established contact with the Robert S. Hartman Institute (RSHI). In 2009, I founded profilingvalues, and I can honestly say that I found my true calling. Since then, we have certified more than 1,000 professionals in the use of the methodology, and its applications have expanded into a wide range of fields: recruitment and talent selection, personnel development, team building, leadership development, foster family assessment, and even couples and family therapy. Over the past 15 years, I have had the privilege of meeting and collaborating with many remarkable people. It has been deeply rewarding to help bring Hartman’s values-based thinking and decision-making approach into the world, with the goal of making it a better place. In this episode of the Value Impulses podcast, I reflect on this journey, take stock of what has been achieved, and share my thoughts on the future of values-based assessment and development.

    #39 Successful Executive Search Then and Now – How the Next Generation Is Shaping the Future. An Interview with Max Keppler

    Max Keppler is still in his twenties and has already established himself as a highly successful executive search consultant within his family’s business. In this episode, we explore how the profession has evolved over time. Having worked in executive search myself for ten years—albeit more than 25 years ago—I was particularly curious to compare perspectives across generations. Together, we exchange experiences, discuss both continuity and change within the industry, and reflect on what has remained essential despite rapid developments in the world of work. What impressed me most was Max’s deep understanding of the profession and the inspiring way he communicates its value and purpose. Our conversation left me feeling optimistic about the future of executive search. Recruitment consultancies play a vital role for organizations by helping them identify and attract the right talent with competence, empathy, and a genuine focus on creating successful outcomes for everyone involved. An insightful conversation about people, careers, and the evolving role of executive search in a changing world.
