About Ralph Rickenbach

Coaching for the Brilliantly Wired and Uniquely Weird

I want to help people see their crises, idiosyncrasies, and potential not as deficits, but as steps in their development and resources they can use for their personal growth and as a contribution to society.

I don’t see you as “broken,” but rather as “in development.” You are an expression of diversity and potential evolutionary momentum, and I am your companion, your guide, not your “repairman.”

How do I use my tools in coaching?

CliftonStrengths: Recognizing Your Unique Make

We assess your individual set of strengths. What talent lets you gain energy? Where do you best cooperate?

Spiral Dynamics: Recognizing Values and Worldviews

We find out what worldview (“meme”) you are currently living. Where do you not fit into your environment? What change state are you currently in?

The goal is to make you aware that your conflict is part of a natural development process.

Change Process: Navigating Crises

You learn to recognize the phases in the change process. Possible approaches are to:

  • Endure and reflect instead of returning to the old ways.
  • Offer support and point out new perspectives to achieve a breakthrough.
  • Find role models, literature, and new role models to help you move forward.

Theory of Positive Disintegration: Crisis as Growth

“Disintegration” is framed as an opportunity, not as failure. You develop your own “higher ideal” and plan how to get there.

Summary

My coaching is less a “repair program” than a journey through crises and changes toward a new self-image.

It supports you in recognizing and utilizing your uniqueness, not as a disorder, but as an individual resource for development.
