It totally depends on your needs. We start off with one-to-one coaching with one coach but if there is a need for the other coach to jump in, we will not hesitate.

With compagneur you are getting two coaching brains at one price.

Even though you will be interacting with just one of us, we have a mechanism to discuss each situation internally in the group and when needed, both of them can join the coaching session.

The two of us – Maike and Lilli - operate together, and we see each other as a perfect addition – the one is balancing the strength/weakness of the other. We are best friends, who have dealt with different difficulties in private life first and after knowing that we can rely on one another, we founded our business. These are also our core values. 

Talking about professional set up, we have together 25 years of experience from the corporate world, having worked in Team leader, Head of Region, Sales Manager, Project Manager, Pricing Expert positions. And the experience of starting a business from scratch. All we teach, we went through ourselves first. We listen to other people, coaches and mentors, allocate a substantial part of our resources to purchasing books and coaching programs and so should you. 

Because we are the “prototypes” of a Compagneur. We combine our experience from the corporate world on the one hand and on the other hand our entrepreneurial learnings. Lilli´s background of 11 years of the corporate and Maike´s family background of entrepreneurial generations gives us the perfect combination to support you.

Due to our backgrounds, we have divided the responsibilities. Lilli is handling career coaching, with her deep knowledge of onboarding processes, interviews, salary & bonus negotiations. And Maike is responsible for entrepreneurs coaching. She is a serial entrepreneur with different family businesses. She knows the important tricks for the Business plan, Financials and Strategies which are important to start your business. But of course, we both are available for both parts of the coaching. Depending on your program you will have the opportunity to have sessions with the two of us.

Yes and no:

We will help you to understand if your business idea can be put on the market, we will support you in solving all questions on how to start own business and also give you clear and honest feedback if we see that you are on the wrong track.

Well you never know until you go 😊 Join us for the free Compagneur Meetups if you are located in Frankfurt, check our Social Media channels to get a feeling about us, or make use of the free consultancy session.

You can always join the Compagneur Meetup Group to connect with like minded people from the corporate world and entrepreneurs. Of course, we connect you with people from our network where it makes sense for your career or business.

Both of us, Maike and Lilli hold (international) business degrees and have worked, studied, lived and trained & led people (in various corporate functions) abroad. 

Our corporate experience covers areas such as finance, controlling, marketing, sales, HR.

Together we have 25 years of corporate experience in various industries.

Our joint company MaLish was founded in January 2018, while still in the corporate world. As corporate consultants, Maike and Lilli consult companies on questions of internationalization, Real Estate and Teams.
