100 days
Coaching for a successful start
Congratulations …
… to your new management role! The first 100 days are traditionally regarded as decisive for your long-term success. Many books, guides and experts emphasize this: In the first 100 days, the course must be set, successes made visible and priorities set. But reality shows: Truly sustainable leadership develops over months – but the first impression in the first 100 days remains formative.
As a new manager, you are under special observation for the first 100 days. Like in an aquarium. Your team, your employees, committees, investors, media and business partners are watching you closely: What is the new leader’s approach? How confidently will they act? What will change? Your appearances, your words and your signals in these first 100 days will have a decisive impact on how your entire term of office is perceived.
The first 100 days are your unique opportunity to take the lead – communicatively, personally and strategically.
Just like in an aquarium: the first 100 days
You send out strong signals in the first 100 days. Your appearance, your presence and your communication lay the foundation for trust, orientation and acceptance. It’s not about making yourself popular. Rather, it is about appearing credible, clear, empathetic and at the same time consistent. If you prepare your communication properly in the first 100 days, you will seize the decisive opportunity to position your own management style effectively.
Your communication skills are the key management tool. You set goals, motivate employees, conduct negotiations, convince investors, answer critical media questions and steer through complex situations. In the first 100 days , your communication will determine whether you provide orientation and gain trust.
The Sparkpoint 100-day program
Sparkpoint’s specially developed 100-day coaching combines all the key training modules that make the difference in this sensitive phase.
Presentation trainingIn the first 100 days, you will regularly present to new target groups: the team, employees, investors, analysts, supervisory bodies, the media and political decision-makers. We prepare you specifically for convincing, authentic and confident appearances – live on site, via video stream or in virtual formats.
Media training: Few situations have as much communicative potential as a well-prepared media interview – and hardly any situation carries as much reputational risk if the preparation is inadequate. Our media training helps you to maintain control even in critical interview situations, to argue precisely and to position your leadership claim professionally.
Professional conversation management: You have been having conversations for years. But in the first 100 days, every sentence counts twice. We provide you with valuable impulses for active conversation management, empathetic listening, constructive feedback, confident de-escalation and professional handling of sensitive emotions.
Storytelling training: In the first 100 days, people want to hear your story. What moves you? What do you stand for? What shapes your decisions? Together we will develop your personal storyline, which will help you to build trust and credibility in a natural and likeable way.
Speech trainingYour voice is your most powerful instrument. Especially in the first 100 days, your vocal presence determines your perceived authority, empathy and leadership strength. In speech training, we develop your vocal impact in a targeted manner.

“All these books about the first 90 days are kind of rubbish in many ways. You have to have a plan. You have to stick with it. You have to modify it at times, but every day you’ve got to get up and play hard.”
