1:1 Coaching & Workshops for IT Industry Leaders

Julia Jauß

1:1 Business Coaching

For founders and leaders who have lost their drive: You ask yourself: Why am I still doing this? The excitement for your own business is gone, and the strategies that worked for years no longer do. Together we'll find new clarity, vision, and motivation to take the helm again with joy and energy.

Workshops & Talks:

Mental health and burnout prevention: Specifically for the IT industry. How do we create a company culture that makes employees more resilient and prevents overload?
"Quiet quitting": When the best people leave without warning. You wonder why motivated staff suddenly quit? I offer workshops that tackle the problem at its root. We create a safe space where your team learns to bring hidden conflicts to light and communicate proactively.

Summary

I help B2B SaaS companies sustainably transform and scale their partner business.

Your challenge: Is your indirect sales not growing fast enough to hit your ambitious goals? Are you wondering why you're only slowly finding new partners? Or why your partners bring in so little revenue? Do you constantly fight internal resistance because direct sales questions your legitimacy or you clash over customers?

As an experienced Interim Head of Partner Sales and Channel Sales Strategist, I solve exactly these problems. After working together, your partner sales will become a reliable growth engine.

My focus is on a well-thought-out strategy, automated processes, and building a true partner community.

And: In over a decade in the IT industry, I've learned that the biggest lever for success is people. That's why, as a coach and in workshops, I help leaders and teams clear their blocks, regain their drive, and stop quiet quitting. I create spaces for open communication and help resolve hidden conflicts so that everyone contributes again with joy and energy.
