“I was referred to Matzau by a colleague, and I would not hesitate to recommend Matzau to my other colleagues as well. I completed a very positive coaching program with Majken Matzau, and the entire process felt tailored to my specific situation from the very first meeting. The original purpose of the program was to gain a clearer understanding of my strongest competencies and interests, and to understand how I can apply them in my current and future professional life.

Through personality assessments and meaningful conversations, I felt affirmed in my own perceptions of my competencies. At the same time, I made many new observations and began to see my strengths from multiple additional perspectives, which will undoubtedly strengthen me going forward in both my current role and future career steps.”

“We need more people like you – people who can act, act quickly, and do so with great professionalism and personal commitment. You are fantastic! Quite simply, you are exceptionally skilled, and you deserve great praise for that. You have been absolutely outstanding. Thank you so much for your quick work and thoughtful follow-up.”

“Majken Lorelei held a leadership workshop on managing stress for our leadership team. While we recognized the importance of the topic, it was through Majken Lorelei's expert guidance and carefully chosen real-life examples that we truly grasped its significance. She created an open atmosphere that encouraged reflection and helped us uncover unconscious patterns by focusing on short-term results far too much.

By blending theoretical concepts with practical insights from her extensive experience and demonstrating a high level of empathy, Majken Lorelei facilitated engaging discussions and valuable learning experiences for senior members of the team.”

“I completed an intensive Executive Coaching program with Majken Lorelei Matzau, and my experience with her has been fantastic. Everything is top-level, and her professional expertise and her concert hall are five-star perfection. If you are looking for peace and clarity in your life, Majken Lorelei is the person to turn to.

I am very grateful to have had Majken Lorelei as my executive coach, and I look forward to continuing the process in the future. I received support both in my professional role and personally, and I have learned to manage difficult and unexpected situations.

I would absolutely recommend Majken Lorelei. She is a superstar sent from heaven to help people. The world would be a better place with more people like her.”

“I have had a very good and highly rewarding executive coaching process with business psychologist Majken Matzau.

From our first conversation, I experienced Majken as both highly professional and at the same time present and personal. She has a particular ability to quickly grasp what lies behind the challenges and considerations you bring to her, and she is not afraid to ask the questions that make you think.

For me, the process has led to a greater understanding of myself, my reactions, and my own strengths. I have become more aware of what matters to me, and where I can make a difference myself, rather than spending energy on what I cannot control.

What I have particularly appreciated is that Majken both challenges and supports. She does not simply give you the answers, but helps you find them yourself. That has made the process very concrete and applicable, also in my everyday life.

I leave the process with greater calm, greater self-insight, and a clearer sense of who I am and what I want.

I can therefore warmly recommend Majken Matzau to others who are looking for a professional, present, and developing process.”

“Majken Lorelei challenges you on both a personal and business level at the same time. She is skilled at opening doors to new and different solutions. Majken Lorelei remains constructively persistent, even when working with more demanding areas of development, and she meets you where you are.”

“I have completed an Executive Coaching program with Majken Lorelei. The starting point was that I found myself at a stage in life – around the age of 50 – where I felt somewhat off course. Many things were going well in my career, yet something was still nagging at me, and I felt I lacked direction and motivation.

Throughout the process, we went both deep and broad, and it was truly valuable. I developed a better understanding of my inner drivers and came to appreciate them more fully. I was able to channel that energy into strong new initiatives in my role as a leader – both within my own department and across the broader organization.

I would clearly recommend Majken Lorelei to colleagues and others with needs similar to mine. It is 'no nonsense' and, at the same time, deeply insightful coaching at the highest level.”

“The process with Majken Lorelei Matzau has been deeply professional from start to finish, without ever being impersonal or distant. It is highly effective that, already in the first session, within 90 minutes, many things are set in motion and real progress begins.

I have grown stronger in my understanding of who I am and what I want from life. I have become better at not being so hard on myself. And finally, I have become far more authentic as a person. The feedback from those around me is that they experience me as more genuine in what I do.

Majken Lorelei has been a fantastic catalyst, pathfinder, and cheerleader on my personal journey. She has my warmest recommendations.”

“Majken Lorelei possesses a unique ability to translate complex psychological theory into direct and practical relevance to both the small and large dilemmas of life.

Furthermore, Majken Lorelei brings an engaging holistic perspective to our working lives, which is certainly worth exploring – not least for those of us who tend to rely primarily on our intellect.”

“My process with Majken Lorelei has been both rewarding and educational. I reached out to her at a time when I needed guidance regarding a specific professional challenge. It developed into a longer and more wide-ranging process, the benefits of which I continue to value.

I have gained a deeper understanding of my role and position, as well as the challenges that inevitably come with them, and I have become better at handling them.

I am happy to recommend Majken Lorelei and have already done so several times.”

“My executive coaching process with Majken Lorelei Matzau has been highly professional and competent. From the very beginning, Majken Lorelei provided present and thoughtful guidance, offering perspective on both professional and personal challenges.

Through our conversations, I gained a deeper and more fundamental understanding of both body and mind. Majken Lorelei also openly shares her own experiences, which strengthened the presence, inspiration, and perspective within our discussions.

My process with Majken Lorelei extended over 18 months and has been instrumental in bringing me to a clearly better place, both personally and professionally.

I give Majken Lorelei my warmest recommendations.”

“I would definitely recommend Majken Lorelei as an Executive Coach. For me, her personality and methods were an excellent fit, and I greatly appreciated her balance between being highly professional while at the same time warm and approachable.

It was extremely valuable to have a series of sessions planned in advance and to have specific assignments to follow up on between meetings with Majken Lorelei. She provided strong support as I worked to change old habits, and I still often reflect on our conversations, even years after the process ended.

My work with Majken Lorelei has helped me stay focused on prioritizing tasks and on tuning in to what feels right for me. The process has given me greater joy and calm in both my professional and personal life – and I believe both my colleagues and my family can sense that.”

“My executive coaching process with Majken Lorelei Matzau was competent, present, and rewarding. It was rewarding because I received concrete suggestions for actions that could be implemented and that made sense at the time. I felt supported and understood.

Majken Lorelei helps you begin using established theory in practice. I have learned that I must find the answer within myself as to what it takes for me to move forward in my life path.

I would recommend Majken Lorelei as an executive coach to others, provided they are clever and willing to work on themselves.”

“I learned an incredible amount. I would recommend Majken Lorelei Matzau to others at any time – and I already have! I gained tremendous value from the executive coaching program.

When I began the process, I felt very close to completely burning out – but I quickly gained confidence that Majken Lorelei could help me. She radiated professionalism while at the same time being warm, caring, and genuinely interested.

I learned that I need to remember to tune into what I truly want – and not always do what I think will please others. I needed to be (and feel that it was okay to be) a little more self-focused and think more about myself.”

“My process with Majken Lorelei has been highly professional and has created the best possible framework for working on my personal development. In addition to Majken Lorelei's professional expertise being of the highest caliber, I have equally appreciated the way she immersed herself in my situation and made me aware of the opportunities to make better choices, prioritize differently, and take better care of myself.

Majken Lorelei has had an exceptional impact on my personal development, and this has significantly influenced my role as a husband and father – in addition to the various roles I have held in my workplace.

I have warmly recommended Majken Lorelei to my network many times and will continue to do so. For me, it has been a tremendous gift in life to meet a person who has been able to move me as far as she has. It is a true privilege, for which I am deeply grateful. I therefore look forward to continuing our valuable sparring, after what has now been ten amazing years.”

“First and foremost, Majken Lorelei Matzau has conducted numerous individual coaching and development programs for leaders who were either heading toward stress-related conditions or facing particular personal challenges where external support proved to be a significant advantage.

At the same time, from the company's perspective, we have been able to observe satisfactory results in terms of improved professional performance.

I therefore gladly offer Majken Lorelei my highest recommendations.”

“The program was tailored to me and therefore gave me the space and tools to work through the challenges I was facing. The process was characterized by a high degree of professionalism, and from the very first moment, Majken Lorelei created a safe and developmental environment.

The program has helped me create greater calm in my professional role as a leader, which is marked by a high workload and a wide range of responsibilities. Calm may therefore sound paradoxical, but it is important for me to be able to act with a sense of steadiness so that neither I nor those around me become unnecessarily stressed.”

“Majken Lorelei has served as my Executive Coach. Our collaboration has been highly professional, with Majken Lorelei always well prepared and fully present.

Majken Lorelei has an infectious joy for life, energy, and presence – combined with an empathetic and deeply personal approach to her clients. As an executive advisor, she helped me through an extremely stressful leadership period, enabling me to move forward in a strong and constructive way.

Majken Lorelei provides direct advice and concrete initiatives when the situation calls for it. She sees the bigger picture – including my life as a whole that must function as a whole. Although our conversations have focused on my professional and leadership challenges, she has also competently and successfully coached me on deeply personal matters.”

“I have worked with Majken Lorelei Matzau as my personal coach and sparring partner over a period of approximately 18 months, with sessions approximately every two months. I have been very happy with our collaboration, as Majken Lorelei has fundamentally helped me develop the way I perceive and think – to great benefit for both me and my business. What I have learned with Majken Lorelei has to a large extent become integrated, and is something I – often unconsciously – use every single day.

If I were to highlight a couple of particular qualities I have found in Majken Lorelei, it would be her ability – and courage – to challenge my most deep-rooted assumptions about what is possible – often in unconventional ways – and to offer her frank and honest opinion when there is a need for resolution. Majken Lorelei is thoroughly professional and is one of the few coaches I have encountered who is truly able to elevate clients to a new level – personally and professionally.”

“My executive coaching program with Majken Lorelei Matzau has from the very start been highly professional and trust-building, with Majken Lorelei challenging the way I think and act.

The program has contributed to my personal development and has helped me achieve a greater degree of self-awareness, which strengthens my leadership.

I greatly appreciate that Majken Lorelei did not focus solely on the reason I first came to her, but that we also worked on several themes that emerged along the way. The themes I worked on with Majken Lorelei have become a natural part of my everyday life today.

I can easily imagine returning for a new program with Majken Lorelei, and I can therefore only warmly recommend a program with her.

Thank you for a rewarding and instructive collaboration.”

“I completed an executive coaching process with Majken. And I gained a great many concrete tools and insights about myself and others, which I use actively in my everyday life – both at work and privately. For me, what is truly distinctive about Majken's approach is that she sees the whole person in her practice, and she is so multifaceted in her competencies that she can give you precisely what you need when you sit down in the chair with her.

I have become clearer about myself, my own boundaries, and my own potential. And I have taken away clear images from our conversations that I revisit regularly, and that help me keep my focus in the right place – even when life is difficult. That is an enormous gift.

I have recommended Majken to others, and I will certainly do so again.”

“You – Majken Lorelei Matzau – have helped me gain an insight into myself that I would not be without, and it has been an enormous help. An overall experience of the highest possible rating – and you should know that I continuously recommend your name to friends and colleagues who, for one reason or another, could benefit from a little time in your company. The insight you have given me has contributed to my seeing my priorities in life from a different perspective.

Even though we have officially concluded our current program, I do not feel entirely done talking with you – and in fact, a couple of months ago, I agreed with my manager that I had approval to take four new follow-up consultations with you whenever I feel the need is there. So expect to hear from me sooner or later.”

“I received executive counseling from Majken Lorelei Matzau – a program that also came to include leadership sparring and meditation. Majken Lorelei has a very broad range of professional as well as personal experience to draw on, which meant I could receive guidance and support on virtually anything throughout the program. Majken Lorelei understands how to get right to the root of problems, and she continuously opened my eyes and helped me see things – and above all myself – from an entirely different perspective.

I chose Matzau Business Psychologists because they came recommended to me. I would absolutely recommend them to others.”

“Majken Matzau is highly professional, and she listens closely and quickly identifies which areas need work, both professionally and personally.

From the very start, I felt a great sense of safety and trust with Majken. That matters enormously to me if I am to move forward and get something out of the sessions. I feel I have come a very long way in relation to both my professional life and the personal side. I use much of what I have learned when I face challenges, or when I notice that work is taking up far too much space. Among other things, I have learned to listen to myself and make room for 'me'. I no longer take on more tasks, and I have become better at delegating. Through meditation, I have come to know myself much better, and that has genuinely helped me.

Of course I would recommend Matzau Business Psychologists to others.”

“Majken Lorelei Matzau has a unique ability to pinpoint exactly where you are as a person. She also has deep insight into organizations and the demands of modern professional life. As a result, she is always able to show the way forward – both on a human level and in terms of career. It never becomes impersonal – on the contrary, the approach is holistic and it truly works. The perspective I gained through my sessions with Majken Lorelei has been of great benefit to me in the real world.”

“Majken has a rare ability to get even very strong people to look inward, to embrace grief, and to put words to all the forbidden feelings – shame and guilt, for instance. It became clear to me early on that I hardly dared to do this, for fear of not being able to come back again.

But Majken was onto exactly the right thing when she insisted that I focus on healing myself instead of fixing life for everyone around me. That meant I had to dare to be vulnerable, and to accept that it is okay, and that I am good enough. That realization is absolutely central to my professional role and to the development of my personality. By the end of the process, I had been helped well into a phase of reorientation, where I found myself both clear and genuinely happy about my situation.

A thousand thanks to you for helping me toward insight, perspective, and belief in myself at the moment when I was most vulnerable.

I can absolutely recommend Majken as a coach – you go on quite a journey into yourself, with Majken as your skilled guide.”

“I would not have wanted to be without the help of Majken Lorelei Matzau when my spouse passed away, and I can only describe the course of our conversations as absolutely relevant and constructive in helping me move forward. I have not encountered a better psychologist in all my years – and I have met quite a few.

I felt absolutely supported. The difficult crisis I was in was addressed directly, and I was given guidelines that I genuinely made use of – and I feel very well helped. Majken Lorelei engaged very actively and held a clear view of things, which I have greatly appreciated. I have learned not to overdramatize and to see things from multiple perspectives. Professionally, this has meant that I have found greater calm, even when changes are significant and quite demanding.

I would not hesitate for a moment to recommend Matzau Business Psychologists. My very warmest regards to you, who were there when it mattered most.”

“On the recommendation of one of Majken's former clients, I began a process with Majken, which turned into several. I wasn't really conscious of why, or of what I wanted from it, and I had no specific goal. But I did have a clear sense that I was seeking to expand my awareness, and that I wanted to change something in my life.

Those processes, and the time I spent with Majken, are the reason my professional life has been radically changed, and they gave me the courage and the desire to create that change. On a personal level, I have become significantly more conscious of what I want from life, and of how wonderful life is.

Thank you for the help, Majken.”

“You have been able to see patterns in me that I was not aware of, and I have had many eye-opening experiences with you. I feel I have learned a great deal about myself and gained tools to act in a way that is good for ME.

You have been good at starting from where I was. In the first session I thought it would be about my job, but you could sense that something entirely different was going on – and that is how it has been throughout: we always ended up somewhere I did not expect, and each time I left with something concrete to act on.

The most important thing I have learned about my professional role is that I have certain competencies, and that I should match my tasks to those competencies – and that not being able to do EVERYTHING does not make me a bad employee.

I would certainly recommend you to others – throughout our process you opened my eyes to something quite deep-seated in me, which was fascinating to discover, and I have also gained some very concrete tools.”

“My program with you has been a fantastic experience. You welcomed me with open arms and helped me to the other side. In the few sessions I had with you, I have come further with myself than in all the many years I have been in the workforce. It is a wonderful feeling to be able to set boundaries – even if I still need to take a run-up. And what a relief it is afterwards – and it does not hurt at all.

I have gained an inner calm and balance that I cannot remember ever having had before – both at home and at work. At work things are also going very well; I remain in balance with myself and am thriving.

I have already recommended you to colleagues who are struggling, and I look forward to being able to reach out to you again should any problems arise.”

“My program with you was absolutely top-notch. You really got through to me, and the way you met me and guided me was a wonderful experience. I felt safe throughout. I gained a better understanding of myself and of those around me – including in my private life.

I often think of you when I consider things – not as 'what would Majken Lorelei say', but rather how I would have talked this through with Majken Lorelei. So in a way I am both of us in that inner conversation. In the most difficult deliberations, when my gut feeling is unsettled, I can physically sense when it lifts. I have already mentioned my program with you with great pleasure and would recommend you at any time. I would perhaps add that in my eyes you are not a coach in the most commonly understood sense.”

“It has been an incredibly beneficial process with Matzau, which has given me good tools for better handling situations that would previously have stressed me significantly. I have become more aware of my own reactions, and better at listening for my body's signals.

I felt extremely welcome and immediately sensed a very positive atmosphere and a sense of hope regarding my situation. That contributed greatly to helping me move forward.

I have become more authentic, more true to myself and to those around me. I have also become much more personally aware of the signals the body sends when it becomes too much – and I have gained some good tools for moving on and getting back on my feet again.”

“I can put it quite simply: my process with Majken Matzau has been a personally transformative journey. When I first came to Majken, I was a person whose body and mind were not in harmony or connected as one whole. I was split into several parts, and had lost contact with myself. After many demanding hours in the chair with Majken, I have come out on the other side as an integrated person – and the journey in my new, integrated self has only just begun.

When I walk through the door to Majken, I am met with a sense of calm and presence, and that has been true throughout my entire process. I have been met with inspiration, openness, and complete attentiveness. It has given me so many tools and so much insight into myself that, on my many journeys ahead, I dare to flow with life, dare to give of myself, and dare to live my new vision. I have been guided through self-creation and into a new life in complete integration.

It has been a long journey for me, both professionally and personally. In my baggage I carry a wealth of experience that Majken has guided me through and taught me. Both professionally and personally, I have learned to be in contact with myself and my inner leadership – to accept, and to learn to flow with life. To take responsibility for my own life and actions, and for the decisions I make consciously or unconsciously. To be so in contact with myself that I know when I am doing what is right for me.”

“Majken was good at giving a quick professional assessment of my situation, and through our conversations she gave good advice and tips on how I could get back on the right course. Together we made a plan for how I could approach my job, regain my joy in work, and avoid ending up in the same situation again. Among other things, I have learned to pay attention so that I can say no in time, and I have learned to be freer and to focus on doing the things I find enjoyable and that I thrive on. It has helped me both at work and privately.

I warmly recommend Majken if you need personal and business-oriented coaching and advice.”

“My process with you went very well, and I got a few things sorted out. Some things were opened up, and I found clarity on how they should be handled. I have learned a great deal about how to say no, and I have become more open toward my colleagues – I gladly spend 15 to 30 minutes with them after my working hours end.

I would recommend Majken Matzau as a coach at any time.”

“I have been very happy with the process, and I have felt in safe hands the whole way. At work, I have learned to listen to myself, to say no, and to ask for help. And that not everything is my responsibility. That I don't need to worry about things that have nothing directly to do with me. Privately, I have learned to let go of control and let others in – my family. I have learned not to feel guilty about the divorce and my children, and to take time for myself. And I have learned not to do things I don't want to do, and that crying doesn't always have a cause – other than simply being a release.

I would certainly recommend Majken Matzau as a coach to others.”
