Danke, Frau Spillman, für Ihren durchdringenden, packenden Vortrag sowie Ihre Motivations- und Aktivierungskünste.

Dank Ihnen wurde die KMU-Veranstaltung in Kassel zu einem unvergesslich positiven Erlebnis, das noch lange nachwirken wird.

Besonders gut gefallen hat mir, dass Sie uns allen einen Spiegel vorgehalten haben und ein jeder angehalten war, sich durch Rollenspiele in verschiedene Sandwurm-Charaktere hineinzuversetzen, die in unser aller Leben anzutreffen sind. Erst durch die Ausführung der Rolle, konnten wir die wahren Charaktereigenschaften (im Guten wie im Schlechten) der einzelnen Sandwurmcharaktere wirklich spüren und erfassen. Ein gutes "Learning", um zukünftig auf bestimmte Charaktere reagieren zu können.Das Beste zum Schluss: Sie haben uns durch Ihre persönlichen Geschichten vermittelt, worauf es wirklich im Leben ankommt. Eine Mahnung und zugleich Aufforderung zum Überdenken unseres Handelns, die in dieser unserer Zeit S O kaum bis gar nicht mehr zu hören ist.

Danke und weiter so.....

Herzlichen Gruß, Nicole Oehl

Petra really knows how to take initiative and leadership to get things done. Her lessons and leadership by example, have shaped my own leadership style.

Petra's vision have been nothing but inspirational. I could not have been any luckier to have fallen under her leadership.

Best of all, she believes in you and encourages you in your way. I truly miss her and will be honored to be under her leadership again. Can't thank her enough for the advice and informations she shared.

After meeting Petra, your life will be divided into two:

The "Before Petra" era, which can characterize the period in which you have not yet discovered the power within you, cannot move, and see things blurry.

And during the "After Petra" period, where you now understand how precious and unique the jewel in you is, you become more aware of the people around you and everything else and you start to see it from a different perspective. We can call this stage "the age of enlightenment".

A great teacher and a great leader who laid the columns, beams, bricks and all other technical equipment of the "Leader" building with all the qualities that a leader should have and puts the most important thing, "love", on the foundation of this structure. A big "THANK YOU".

I had the chance to meet with Petra thanks to our Management Principles masters course.

I must say that our lectures with her were not just like the others.

She started to teach us even before we met and kept us learning about ourselves and the people around us outside the lectures. She always used examples from everyday life and made me aware of "whales" in my daily life together with enablers and disablers around me as she did in her book "The Sandworm Principle".

It was a really enjoyable and fruitful time with her which inspired me to leave a golden dust trail throughout my life.

Petra is the one of the Energic Leaders that her Acts Exactly is Like her Words, I mean Integrity.
Here I want to say that I Earned to be more open to people by heart and create the heart-to-heart relationship with trust and the most Important point that I earned; leadership is not a label or a degree to obtain, it is a true communication in it exact time by heart.
