Raise the bar for your entire team on a sustainable basis.
Technically, methodically, and personally.

We fail to change
Your team is not performing as it should and you feel stuck. You’re working harder than ever but not getting ahead. You’re facing the same problems over and over again. You know you need to make a change but you’re paralyzed by uncertainty and maybe you ran out of ideas.
You’ve tried to break through but something is pulling you back. You’re exhausted and maybe stopped believing the this team can change.
You are sure that a pair of fresh eyes would be worth a try. You don’t the regular stuff, as you know it wasn’t sustainable in the past.
You can only win
Imagine the relief you feel as your team starts understanding what truly matters. Imagine no longer having to play the role of a firefighter, and instead, focusing on strategic, high-impact issues.
Picture those familiar old problems disappearing in the rearview mirror. Imagine having the confidence to act decisively as your team grows.
Now, imagine an expert business coach joining your team—listening, coaching, and programming alongside your team. Picture the spark of joy and progress within your team, along with remarkable results, all within the first six weeks.
And finally, imagine having a 100% money-back guarantee if the goals aren’t met.
Hi! I’m Ralf,
and I help teams to find joy in results and the pride of being responsible.
Starting as a developer in 2007, I advanced to roles like team lead and architect. Then I realized that technical and methodical excellence is important, but not sufficient. It’s about sparking enthusiasm for raising the bar and the constant questioning of the status quo. I have had the pleasure to work with outstanding developers from around the world, speaking on conferences, giving lectures about “Modern Software Architectures” and, most of all, helping people to surprise themselves with their passion and their own abilities.

“He has a unique ability to inspire the people around him.”
I had the pleasure of working with Ralf for more than a year at Virtual Minds. He is definitely an expert on topics like clean code, clean architecture, and agile methodologies and consistently demonstrated a deep understanding of these concepts through his work.
What impressed me the most about Ralf was his ability to lead the team by example. He consistently displayed a strong work ethic, attention to detail, and a passion for creating high-quality software. He had a way of inspiring the team to follow his lead and strive for excellence in all aspects of our work.
In addition to his technical skills, Ralf also had a knack for clearly communicating technical concepts to both technical and non-technical team members. He was always patient and willing to take the time to explain things in a way that everyone could understand, which helped to foster a highly collaborative and inclusive work environment.
I would highly recommend Ralf as a valuable asset to any team. He brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table and has a unique ability to inspire the people around him.

“Every team would be happy to have him as an Agile Coach on board!”
When thinking about Ralf, first his inspiring and motivating mood came into my mind. He is really great in building and growing teams as well as challenging ideas and thinking out of the box.
I had the pleasure of learning a lot of agile frame works, how to make teams more efficient and how to create a great working environment from him.
Especially when it comes to discussions, he has a talent of pointing out problems in a constructive way, encouraging conflicts when they were needed to come to a meaningful conclusion and challenging concepts e.g. by giving other perspectives on the issue. During a meeting you can always count on him having a good, memorable and entertaining example up his sleeves and after the meeting you were usually left with a quote or question encouraging you to think beyond the borders and grow your one opinion.
Every team going for self-organization would be happy to have him as an agile coach on board!

Ralf is passionate about raising the bar for the team together with the team. His expertise in Agile, programming, architectures and team dynamics is impressive.
He communicates exceptionally well, which boosts team engagement and cohesion.
Overall, I highly recommend Ralf as a consummate professional with a wide range of skills that will add significant value to any project.

Working with Ralf was a pleasure. Having him as a coach did boost our knowledge tremendously.
He is an expert in his field and also able to teach others. He also does not hesitate to speak up if things go the wrong way.
