How This Started

In 2013, I watched a 15-minute coaching demonstration at work. That's all it took. A trainer showed what leading through coaching could look like — asking the right questions instead of giving all the answers. People walked away motivated, clear, and owning their next steps.

I'd been a leader for ten years at that point. I thought I was good at it. I wasn't. I was micromanaging a talented team in Singapore, making every decision myself, and wondering why nobody seemed engaged.

After that day, I led differently. I stopped solving problems for my team and started asking better questions. The results surprised me — they were energized, they took ownership, and eventually, every single one of them got promoted.

Two years later, I left corporate to become a coach full-time. In 2018, I founded IntelliCoach. Since then, I've accumulated over 2,000 coaching hours, trained leaders from companies like SAP and eBay, and built a coaching skills academy with a 4.9 out of 5 rating across 50+ reviews.

What took me years of struggle to learn, I want to deliver in months — at scale, through technology.

That's what this platform is. Not just a website — a complete coaching ecosystem: courses, tools, resources, and a community. Everything I wish I'd had when I stepped into my first leadership role.

The twist? I'm not a developer. My co-builder is Claude AI. Every feature, every page, every design decision on intellicoachcourses.com was built in conversation with AI. No development team. No outsourcing. Just a coach with a vision and the belief that if you show up consistently, good things happen.

"Just do what you plan to do and be consistent about it, and you will likely do better than ninety-seven percent of people out there."

— My dad. He was right.

About the Builder

Hi, I'm Maik.

I'm a German leadership coach who's called Singapore home for the past 20 years. I'm an ICF Professional Certified Coach, father of four, and someone who genuinely believes that every people leader can become a great coach — they just need the right tools and training.

I've trained leaders from SAP, eBay, and dozens of startups. I've logged over 2,000 coaching hours. And I've built a coaching skills academy that people seem to love — 4.9 out of 5 across 50+ reviews.

This platform is my attempt to take everything I've learned and make it available to anyone, anywhere. Courses, tools, and resources that help you become the kind of leader people want to work for.

My co-builder? Claude AI. Every feature, every page, every design decision — built in conversation. If a solo coach can build a full platform with AI, what could you build?

You found it!

This entire platform — the storefront, this roadmap, every single feature — was built in conversation with Claude AI. A leadership coach who doesn't write code built a full-stack platform. And you're looking at the proof.
