Customer feedback

Leadership development

I first met Urs during a leadership training session at TripleGoal, and from the very beginning, I immediately had complete trust in him. This trust enabled a deep and effective relationship. Urs is an outstanding coach with a wealth of experience, and it's clear that he has successfully mastered many transitional phases in his own career.

When I faced a significant leadership challenge, Urs became my coach. His rare combination of empathy, warmth, and kindness—coupled with the ability to consistently hold me accountable—was transformative for me. He not only supported me but also inspired me to grow.

I can warmly and unreservedly recommend Urs as a trainer, coach, and HR manager.

HR management tasks

When I was looking for external HR support, someone on my team recommended that I speak with Urs. It wasn't long before I knew why. He's a highly experienced senior HR professional with a deep understanding of the pharmaceutical industry's business. He was able to quickly identify the areas where my company needed action, and his recommendations have had a lasting, extremely positive impact. I was very happy to have Urs at my side as my Interim Group Head HR for almost nine months.

Urs is a partner at TripleGoal in Australia and leads several one-year leadership training programs for us. All participants are deeply impressed by Urs, and when we start a new group, we always try to bring him on board. For me personally, he is a fantastic advisor who offers support far beyond the training sessions. He is a trustworthy, warm-hearted personality whom I greatly value – far beyond our professional partnership.
