Heckner Coaching GmbH

Heckner Coaching GmbH is a consulting firm serving the electrical trade (Elektrohandwerk) in the German-speaking region. Part of the Heckner-Gruppe, the company supports owners of electrical businesses across the whole range of business management, through consulting, coaching programmes and seminars. It has been in business for over 40 years and employs more than 50 experts. The firm describes itself as the leading consultancy in its field; it also presents itself as the number one in consulting to the electrical trade, a claim it does not substantiate publicly.

The company's work is organised around four offerings: Beratung (consulting) tailored to the specific needs of individual electrical businesses; Coaching-Programme designed for the same clientele; Seminare, through which more than 50,000 entrepreneurs and employees have been supported; and ERFA-Gruppen, experience-exchange groups that bring together over 700 member companies. Its stated remit covers the development of both entrepreneurs and their employees.

Heckner Coaching GmbH works to the principle that it advises people rather than structures ("Wir beraten keine Strukturen, sondern Menschen"). Its stated approach rests on communication at eye level and on delivering measurable value, with the stated aim of accompanying entrepreneurs towards a more successful business. The company operates throughout the German-speaking region.
