About Burkhard Schmidt

As a Professor of Psychology and Executive Coach, I help individuals and organizations unlock their full potential through science-based methods combined with deep human understanding. Drawing from fields like Psychology, Neuroscience, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Rational-Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), I guide clients through sustainable, meaningful change — both professionally and personally. My Specialties: Life Coaching: Helping individuals gain clarity, overcome personal and professional roadblocks, and discover new paths forward. Leadership Coaching: Supporting executives and professionals in developing resilient, high-performance leadership skills in complex environments. Supervision for Coaches: Enhancing professional practice and evidence-based methodology for fellow coaches and trainers. Train-the-Trainer Programs: Equipping trainers and facilitators with the tools to deliver impactful, research-based learning experiences. Why work with me? I combine the rigor of a scientist with the empathy of a coach. Together, we work to dismantle internal and external barriers so you can become the best version of yourself — for today, and for the future. Let’s connect and explore how I can support your journey toward personal growth and professional excellence.
