WHY SONJA?
WHY SONJA?
Sonja stands for transformation and impressive results = real ROI.
In the words of her customers, she is:
Results-driven catalyst that redefines what's possible!
The multi-award-winning SPIEGEL bestselling author takes listeners on an inspiring journey through her extraordinary international life and into the universe of possibilities that is within everyone's reach!
Sonja doesn't use cheesy calendar quotes, hackneyed studies, or flowery buzzwords.
It's about focus, courage, and lasting success.
The warm-hearted guarantee of success is authentic and inspiring in such a human way.
Thanks to her many years of international corporate experience, she speaks the language of multinationals and knows exactly what is needed to achieve the respective goals.
This dynamic Munich native has lived in six countries—she lives an "international" and "intercultural" life like hardly any other speaker.
Sonja is one of the very few German speakers who are equally captivating when speaking in English as they are in German.

The Kitzbühel resident by choice has already lived in six countries and was marketing director for BMW Asia.
Today, as a high-impact executive coach, she guides entrepreneurs with 6- to 8-figure incomes, top-level executives, and world-class athletes to maximum success.
With appearances in 49 countries and tens of thousands of inspired people worldwide, Sonja knows exactly what it takes to make a real impact. She is clear, demanding, and uncompromising in her mission:
Transformation that lasts.
Success that sets standards.
