Sparring with Grass & Partner – Experience Meets Reflection

Since our founding in 1997, as specialists in professional transitions, we have successfully supported hundreds of companies and individual clients in professional reorientation, career planning, or leadership development.
We accompany executives and companies through demanding change processes. With our sparring programs, we create a space for reflection, decision-making, and development – at eye level, confidentially, and practically oriented.

For us, sparring and consulting mean responsibility: empathy, experience, and tangible commitment to your concerns form the basis for goal-oriented, partnership-based cooperation – because this is the only way to create the necessary foundation of trust.
Although our programs have a defined scope of services, they are always tailored to the individual needs of the client.
Our permanent team of experts, consultants, and coaches brings many years of field experience acquired in management and line positions in industry, trade, finance, or administration. Sparring partners at eye level.

For demanding
leadership situations

Our mission is to support executives in acting with clarity in complexity, reflecting on their own impact, and making decisions with substance.

As a neutral reflection partner, the sparring partner acts independently of internal dynamics, takes a strategic perspective in uncertain decision-making situations, and promotes personal development in everyday leadership through constructive dialogue instead of classic coaching. Clarity in complex decisions, new perspectives through experienced conversation partners, relief, and confidence in acting during critical phases are your benefits from a successful sparring partnership.

Our Programs

Sparring is not coaching. It is a collaborative space for reflection with immediate benefits for leadership and the organization. The Grass Sparring Model, based on the Grass Model©, differs from coaching or consulting models by focusing on:

  • Dialogic reflection instead of intervention
  • Strategic clarity instead of behavioral training
  • Entrepreneurial resonance instead of psychologization

Our sparring follows a structured process in three phases and six steps. Reflect – Decide – Lead: This creates clarity step by step, provides orientation, and enables effective action.
