Torsten Henschel is a highly skilled, well versed and extremely ethical personal coach. Coupled with that he has a true passion for human-development and life enrichment in general. The coaching sessions I have had so far has all been done in a timely and very professional manner. At the beginning and end of each session I had a chance to reflect on the previous and current sessions, and every time I realized how much these sessions have opened up new thought-provoking avenues. This process not only changed my thinking about myself, but also widened my horizons regarding career, relations and ethics in general. Although Torsten has a very non-obtrusive way of coaching, he does manage in a very skillful way to get to the bottom of issues at hand. Without the proper guidance of a professional coach like Torsten, I would probably never realized that my personal true potential is yet to be brought into fruition. I can sincerely recommend Torsten as personal and/or professional coach for any individual or organization. His willingness to extend himself into his subject matter, as well as his humble but professional manner in which he challenges his subjects to look further, harder and deeper into matters of concern, begs to be recommended.”
