Cassandra Jahn Mentor & Founder | Digitaleleven & Founderlake
WERK1 is a super international community with amazing startups, people and ideas. As a mentor, I really enjoy helping the startups with my know-how, exchanging ideas with them and always learning something new.
Rebecca Könitzer Consultant, Trainer & Coach
Start-ups rarely fail because of their idea, but often because of decisions made under pressure and issues with teamwork. The WERK1 Expert Programme brings teams and experts together at precisely this stage, in a straightforward way and with clear criteria to ensure a good match. I am therefore all the more delighted to be able to contribute my 15 years’ experience in business strategy and systemic coaching here; the energy and drive for change shown by the founders are always the best part of the job.
Georg Scheller Mentor & Owner | Scheller Mediaconsulting
I’m always happy when the most friendly Head of Startups & Operations reaches out to me – not just because I appreciate his infectious positivity, but also because (let’s be honest) this guiding spirit of WERK1 has an exceptional talent to match mentees with the right mentors.
Stefan Schaumeier Mentee & COO | B42
This might sound stupid or faked, but the truth is that just the first few hours of my mentoring experience at WERK1 have turned my professional life upside down in a positive way. Being so deeply immersed in the day-to-day business, it was and still is incredibly valuable to get an experienced, honest, and open external perspective through mentoring.
What’s more, most of us are doing what we do for the first time. Having an experienced person at your side gives you the confidence to make decisions in difficult situations.
Valentin Schellhaas CEO & Founder I zentor GmbH
We at zentor are WERK1 alumni ourselves, and I always look forward to exchanging ideas with inspiring founders in Munich’s best start-up community! Given my focus on team and self-management, this often leads to fruitful discussions that go beyond the more ‘traditional start-up topics’.
