HENRIETTE SCHULZE

Before starting my own Executive Coaching business at Unpacked Leadership I worked in several roles within the Project Management and the Procurement function in the Automotive sector. I am specialised in managing E-Procurement projects and have headed teams within different Procurement areas and countries.
My latest role focuses on Governance at Procurement and allows me to learn a lot about Process & Compliance Management, Performance Management and Risk Management at Procurement.

My roles have taken me to many cities and countries: Born originally in Romania I moved with my parents to Germany when I was as little as 6 years. I grew up in a small town close to Stuttgart an I studied and worked in Stuttgart.
Then I moved to Nuremberg, Germany, to work at a Global Automotive Supplier within the Procurement Function. There I had the unique opportunity to relocate to Singapore and Japan to take over leading roles within the Regional Procurement Management team. I worked, lived and enjoyed Asia for almost 7 years before I returned back to Germany in 2021.

It was in Singapore were I started to deep-dive into studies and literature all around leadership. I was strongly committed to hone my own leadership skills to serve my team in a better way. That’s how I became very interested into Coaching as Leadership tool and subsequently started my Coach Certification program under iPEC.

I have completed my certification as a Certified Professional Coach (CPC) as well as a Energy Leadership Index Master Practitioner (ELI-MP). By completing those programs I have developed quality skills and tools to support my Clients and as a member of the International Coaching Federation (ICF) I am bound to continuously improve my skills and apply their high standards in my Coaching Sessions.
