“I have the privilege of knowing Thomas Oehler now for more than 12 years, and during this time, he has consistently demonstrated exceptional expertise as a consultant and coach. Thomas has been an invaluable partner in several critical projects, providing insightful guidance and support.

In transformation projects where organizational restructuring was necessary, Thomas's strategic thinking and practical approach were instrumental. Thomas's workshops were not only informative but also engaging, fostering a collaborative environment and driving our teams toward high performance.

Moreover, Thomas's coaching has been transformative. On three occasions when I assumed new responsibilities, he helped me navigate challenging situations with grace and confidence. His insights and personalized guidance were crucial in adapting to new environments and working effectively with different managers.

As someone responsible for international teams, I greatly appreciate Thomas's expertise in cross-cultural communication. His coaching has enhanced my ability to collaborate seamlessly with colleagues from diverse backgrounds, particularly in the Asian context India and Taiwan.

In summary, Thomas Oehler is a consummate professional who combines deep knowledge with a genuine passion for helping others succeed. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking a skilled consultant and coach.”

“I have worked with Thomas on several projects (change management, team building, coaching). He has a unique mixture of addressing professional topics and at the same time working on individual and personal topics. His own professional experience as a Senior Manager does help him understanding the dynamics and processes in large organizations. 
One particular focus of Thomas will always be the intercultural aspect of things. His special relationship to Nepal is a true source of inspiration.
I can strongly recommend working with Thomas. Because of the fact that a broad range of topics will be addressed, the effects are long lasting.”

“I have been working with Thomas since more than 15 years. With his expertise in co-operating with foreign shareholders (e.g. German and Non-German), perceiving structural changes as an opportunity for growth (regional vs. central) and managing cultural differences (east vs. west) Thomas had the ability to “open windows” allowing me to definitely strengthen my professional career. With his own life 17 years abroad, Thomas is an exceptional coach with huge experience and expertise in international business. I really appreciated Thomas´ unique blend of psychological expertise, professional insight, and practical strategies. During the almost two decades he trained and supported me becoming an even more efficient guide for navigating through complexities of shareholders, cultures and structural challenges of modern life and helped me to manage both career and personal live. With fluency in four languages: English, German, French, and Hungarian Thomas possesses a unique ability to connect with individuals and teams from diverse cultural backgrounds. Thomas´ approach is characterized by a genuine commitment to lead individuals and also management teams to unlock their full potential. Recommended without any hesitations.”
