André Freiheit, Stand-Up Comedian and
Mentor for Leadership and Change

My approach brings all these different perspectives together to provide you as a leader with optimal support in your development.
Every phase of life brings its own questions. This applies to the challenges of day-to-day management as well as to personal development.
There is no one-size-fits-all answer to every issue. This is why different issues require different consulting approaches.
In my work with leaders, I combine two roles: that of a mentor and that of a coach, which I use depending on the situation and the issue at hand. I also contribute my experience as a stand-up comedian.
As a mentor, I give practical advice based on my 25 years of leadership experience and my in-depth know-how from numerous change and transformation projects. As a coach, I use tried-and-tested techniques to help you find your own solutions and develop new perspectives with confidence. As a stand-up comedian, I am used to taking unusual perspectives. This opens your eyes to new, creative solutions. And I bring humor and lightness to our sessions. Humor eases tensions, creates an open atmosphere and makes it easier to tackle difficult topics.
What do you think, do we match?

I have 25 years of leadership experience in an international company and know what it takes to inspire teams, grow and bring ambitious strategies to life. My leadership style is based on trust, transparency and good teamwork. This is not only modern, it has also helped my teams to stay confident and motivated even in uncertain times.
I recently took on a new adventure and became a stand-up comedian. Since my training a the Hamburg School of Comedy, I have been performing regularly on stage. As a comedian, I need to connect with the audience, I have to communicate clearly and to the point – and I get immediate feedback: people either laugh, or they don’t laugh. Comedy has taught me a lot about myself, about stepping out of my comfort zone and the power of humor in difficult moments.
As a coach, I bring both worlds together: my experience as a manager and the creative world of the comedian. I offer you a safe and open space in which you can gain new perspectives, build self-confidence and tackle challenges head-on. Whether you are in the midst of a transformation or simply looking to grow, I want to help you find the clarity and motivation you need. And always with a healthy pinch of humor. Let’s work together to bring out the best in you.
What successful leaders say about me:
“Inspiring, motivating and strong in implementation – these three qualities characterize André. Over many years, he has successfully led teams from different countries and cultures and achieved outstanding results with them. With his extensive experience, André navigates change effortlessly and motivates managers and employees again and again. His positive energy and exceptional commitment are highly inspiring. This is particularly true in his role as a coach and mentor, where he not only guides people but also inspires them in the long term.”
“I have worked with André in various management positions and have always benefited from his motivating manner. His leadership style, characterized by listening and trust, promotes diverse teams and creative solutions. André has helped me to react flexibly to a wide range of leadership challenges and to set and pursue priorities with foresight. His targeted questions open up new ways of thinking and scope for action. His strategy workshops, in which he introduces methods of decision-making and communication with enthusiasm and competence, are particularly memorable.”
“I don’t know many people who can challenge existing ways of thinking or patterns of behaviour with more empathy than André. A great leader but also a facilitator for real change – not just personal but also structural.”
“Working with André was transformative. His personalised approach and practical strategies empowered me to overcome challenges and achieve my goals. André provided a collaborative space and unwavering support, imparting context, stimuli for ideation and real-world tools that directly influenced results. He managed this within a high trust relationship that was authentic and dynamic to the business need, both sparring to challenge, and supportive to nurture. As a remote leader, André fostered a fast-paced culture that got the best out of me and built self-awareness. I wholeheartedly recommend André to anyone looking to unlock their potential.”
“Over 25 years ago, I was fortunate enough to get to know André as a colleague. During our intensive collaboration, I experienced him as a driving force full of creativity and unconventional approaches that always enriched our projects. His ability to combine fun and professionalism made every challenge easier and our teamwork extraordinarily successful. He is no longer a colleague, but has become a good friend of mine. André is also an exceptionally motivating person in his private life. His optimism and energy are infectious; he sees possibilities where others see limitations. He keeps a positive outlook even in difficult times and is honest and well-founded. If you are looking for a mentor who truly motivates, inspires and leads, André will help you to develop your potential in the best possible way.”
