Inner Resignation

In Germany there are over 17.000 different job

descriptions, but no career orientation opportunities.

Lacking Orientation

Not Future-Proof

Worldwide only 13% of the employees are engaged at

How can we face the challenges of the workplace of the future? Digitalization, Automation, Globalization.

The ChallengesFounding reasons for the Superherotraining:

*Source: Gallup’s State of the Global Workplace Report 2013

Strengthen self-efficacy

A contemporary approach to the development of a

fluid career involves us and our needs.

Holistical orientation

A modern career concept

There’s nothing more motivating, than the

acknowledgement of yourself. We create Superheroes.

New Work is fluid. Your field of work is constantly

changing. Humans are more than their workforce.

good job (17%)

20Entrepreneurs #Idea-Volcano #Entrepreneurial-Spirit #Serial-Entrepreneur

Entrepreneurs are always on the search

for new ideas and fresh inspiration for projects that have

the potential to scale and grow big.

SUPERFORCES

Entrepreneurs don’t want to be limited to unimportant details. They only care about the success of their

projects.

KRYPTONITE

21Makers#Specialization #Professional-Recognition #Maker-Spirit

Mastership of skills and highly developed

knowledge is what defines success for

the Makers.

Autonomy and freedom in creating things is very

important for the Makers. They cannot stand the ignorance

from unknowing people.

SUPERFORCES KRYPTONITE

22Fighters#Ultimative-Challenge #Raid-Boss-Defeater #Problem-Solver

Fighters like to live dangerously at each

stroke and they won’t rest until they

take it all. They always test their

limits and go beyond.

Fighters easily grow bored when they are not challenged, when

there’s no real progress and no fight

to win anymore.

23Helpers#Impact #Change #Values

The Helpers are the world saviors, activists, teachers and healers.

They want to serve for a higher cause with

ideals.

They would never betray their own

ideals. Helpers feel depressed when they don’t receive enough recognition for their work and support.
