Founder: Manuela Orlamünder, Diplom-Ingenieurin and coach for executives and specialists from IT, automotive and industry. Certified as a Gallup-Certified Strengths Coach, systemic coach, Senior Business Coach (IHK) and Agile Coach.
For experienced specialists and executives from IT, automotive and industry. Team leads, middle management, senior experts, project and department leadership. Usually in matrix structures, often international.
For people who want to move something forward and need clarity about the next step. Which direction is right. Which decision will hold. Which role fits. And for people who sense that their current situation no longer fits, without there being any particular trigger. Coaching for leaders that works as strategic sparring.
For companies that want to invest in their leadership culture. This includes leadership development, team development and strengths diagnostics using CliftonStrengths, individually or in combination.
Typical situations are leaders growing into new roles or wanting to increase their impact. Teams that have been newly formed or are not yet well established. Teams that want to grow together, reorganise or work more effectively under pressure. Reorganisations and increased responsibility that call for systematic development of the people expected to carry them. Including when nothing has escalated.
From technical and analytical environments. Automotive, IT, mechanical engineering, manufacturing industry. As a business coach based in Lippstadt, North Rhine-Westphalia, Manuela Orlamünder works remotely and in the Lippstadt area, across Germany and internationally. With companies, enquiries usually come through people development, HR or the management board.
Anyone looking for a quick method or an off-the-shelf programme. The focus here is on engaging with the actual issue, not on running through a catalogue of methods.
Manuela Orlamünder works with people where she is confident she can genuinely help. That is why every engagement begins with a free initial conversation as a mutual fit check, rather than direct booking.
For individuals, it starts with a free 20-minute initial conversation. Both sides then decide whether it is a good fit. This is followed by a Focus Session, Inner Compass Core or Inner Compass Deep, depending on how deep the issue runs. The work follows three steps. Sort. Prioritise. Move.
For companies, it starts with a detailed conversation to establish requirements, not a standard offer by return. A tailored concept is developed from this. Scope, format and duration are agreed together. Diagnosis first, intervention second. This applies to leadership development as well as team development, across IT, automotive, mechanical engineering and manufacturing industry.
Core runs for three months and includes the Focus Session. It ends with clarity about the actual issue, the patterns that hold things back identified, and decisions made.
Deep runs for six months and includes everything in Core. Two short calls for urgent questions are added. The focus is more strongly on embedding change and reorientation. The role is actively shaped.
Both are preceded by the Focus Session, a single 90-minute session, fully creditable towards either programme.

MO Coaching was founded in 2024 by Manuela Orlamünder. It is based in Lippstadt, North Rhine-Westphalia.
The offering consists of two areas.
For individuals, there is one-to-one business coaching designed as structured sparring. The target group is experienced specialists and executives from IT, automotive and industry. There are three levels. Focus Session, Inner Compass Core and Inner Compass Deep.
For companies, there is leadership development, team development, CliftonStrengths assessments and workshops, as well as individual coaching for leaders invoiced to the company.
Both are available remotely and in person in the Lippstadt area, across Germany and internationally.
Manuela Orlamünder is an engineer and a coach. That combination is rare. And it is the reason why conversations with her get to the point quickly.
She does not come from HR or from consultancy, but from laboratories, international projects and corporate structures. This means nobody needs to explain matrix organisations to her. Nor corporate politics. Nor the pressure in a development department when the deadline is fixed and the technology will not cooperate.
She holds a Diplom-Ingenieurin degree, studied Applied Physics, led an international project at the Fraunhofer Institute and then worked for around 18 years in the international automotive sector. This included more than seven years with technical leadership responsibility for a quality team in international project structures and more than five years as deputy head of department, involved in strategic and organisational decision-making.
Her work covered budget and performance responsibility, managing quality-critical processes, and conflict and escalation management, both internally and with international customers. She knows KPI-driven organisations, matrix structures and the tension between technical responsibility and organisational demands from her own experience.
Alongside this, she trained as a coach. Systemic, agile, strengths-based. She is certified as a Gallup-Certified Strengths Coach, systemic coach, Senior Business Coach (IHK) and Agile Coach.
Since 2024 she has worked as a sparring partner for experienced professionals in IT, automotive and industry.

MO Coaching’s method is called “Sort. Prioritise. Move.”
It is based on three steps:
– Sort, order the current situation until the actual state becomes visible
– Prioritise, clarify what matters now and what can wait
– Move, one concrete next step, workable and realistic
The method is used both in one-to-one sparring with individuals and in work with leaders and teams in companies. The work never begins with ready-made answers, but with questions, until the actual issue is clear.
