WHO WE ARE
WOMAN AT WORK provides professional Business Coaching for discerning women who want to do more with their lives.
Whether you’re looking to take your career in a different direction, become more assertive, take on a leadership role or simply go back to work – WOMAN AT WORK supports you in reaching your ambitious goals. The WOMAN AT WORK approach stands for feasibility, choices and inspiration. We always look at the term “career” from the perspective of women – women who want to do what’s best for them.
WOMAN AT WORK was founded by Katharina Jarzombek in 2016. After almost 20 years of holding leadership positions in different companies, running her own marketing and communications consultancy and managing complex projects in the arts and culture sector, she decided to shuffle the deck: She founded WOMAN AT WORK to share her diverse experiences as a professional woman, entrepreneur and manager with other women.

Katharina Jarzombek helps me organize my thoughts
I take coaching sessions at WOMAN AT WORK because I want to get a clearer picture of what I can do to improve my professional situation in the future while balancing career and family. Katharina Jarzombek helps me organize my thoughts, recognize behavior patterns that I hadn‘t previously been aware of, question some fixed beliefs and draw the right conclusions. It’s really motivating to me and I’m now working on shaping my professional future step by step. Before starting my coaching sessions I was much more indecisive and felt that being a working mother of two counted against me so I didn’t really make a lot of progress. Thanks to WOMAN AT WORK, I am now able to make things happen much faster, which makes me feel stronger and more satisfied.

Clear and goal-oriented approach
I’ve been a successful manager in the international culture sector for many years now, thanks in part to getting coached from time to time. This helped me to address challenges in an efficient and professional manner during some difficult phases in my career. I use WOMAN AT WORK coaching because I’m thinking about taking my career in a new direction. Katharina Jarzombek helps me identify the drivers that lead me to pursue this change as well as what my strengths are and what realistic options I have. I really appreciate her professional and personal experience as well as her clear and goal-oriented approach. We complement each other well so I am happy to recommend WOMAN AT WORK to others!

Find an appropriate solution together
WOMAN AT WORK supports me to more effectively structure my work as a product manager in a dynamic start-up environment and to improve my time management. Katharina Jarzombek is a focused and committed coaching partner. Her extensive experience enables her to look at the issues we discuss from different angles so we can find an appropriate solution together. The “homework” she gave me made me reflect on what we talked about some more and I was able to apply that in real-life situations. I can only recommend making an appointment with Katharina Jarzombek!

I appreciate that WOMAN AT WORK focuses on women
I reached out to Katharina Jarzombek for coaching so she can help me reflect on what new direction to take my career in and what specific steps I should take next. I’ve just recently started coaching sessions but quickly realized how useful it can be to talk with a true professional. Getting coached mean I no longer have to figure this out by myself. I’m also gaining a fresh perspective about what realistic change options I have and about what really matters to me in life – which definitely also includes work. I really appreciate that WOMAN AT WORK focuses on us women and the way we can become professionally fulfilled. WOMAN AT WORK can help me approach change in a sensible and structured way.
