If you have been putting off a decision for weeks that you actually made a long time ago – 90 minutes is all it takes to be fully operational again. With a 100% money-back guarantee.

Johannes Faupel

A systemic high-intensity intervention for Board Members, CEOs, and Family Office Principals who know exactly what needs to be done – and yet aren’t doing it.

It is 6:48 AM. You have been awake since 4:30. On your desk lies a personnel decision you haven’t made for three weeks. A restructuring you haven’t announced for two months. A conversation with the Supervisory Board that you have postponed twice.

You know exactly what is right. You have known it for weeks.

But between knowing and doing stands something that will not resolve itself – and the longer you wait, the more expensive that decision becomes. Not just for your company. For you.

This is the exact moment this format was built for.

What happens in this 90-minute 1-on-1 session

Top executives don’t hit a wall because they lack competence. They get stuck because too many high-stakes issues are firing in their heads at the same time. In this state, no single issue can be thought through with clarity – and that lack of clarity creates a mental gridlock that triggers the next one.

A systemic high-intensity intervention breaks this gridlock in a single session. 90 to 120 minutes. Online, from your office or your private study. One single issue that we work through together until we reach absolute clarity. The result: a decision that sticks. And your access to your own judgment is restored.

The Guarantee: You decide. At the end of the session. No explanation needed.

If, after these 90 to 120 minutes, you do not feel a noticeable inner relief – and do not walk away with a concrete next step that you can take tonight – you get your full fee back.

No forms. No explanations. No questions asked. You say it at the end of the session, and the money is back in your account within 24 hours.

This guarantee exists because I carry the risk. Not you. If the intervention doesn’t work, it was my job to recognize that – not yours to prove it.

Why I can do this work

For 24 years, I have lived with a benign intracranial lesion. Status idem – a medical finding that means: It stays as it is. It won’t get better. You are the one who has to get better.

That sounds like a disadvantage. The opposite is true. This challenge is the reason my work functions the way my clients value it. Anyone who has woken up every morning for 24 years with pressure in their head and still leads a company, a family, and a practice, learns one thing more precisely than any course could ever teach: how to transform symptoms into systems. How to recognize dysfunctional couplings between thought, body, and behavior – and dissolve them before they create the next problem.

That is exactly what we do together in those 90 minutes. With you, with your specific issue. Not in theory.

Who this format is not built for

To save us both the pre-qualification time – if any of the following points apply to you, this format is the wrong one, and I will ask you in the preliminary talk not to book it:

  • You are looking for a process spanning several months. (There are other providers for that.)
  • You want to negotiate or split the 2,400 EUR fee. (If the amount is the obstacle, the pressure isn’t high enough yet.)
  • You are looking for someone to agree with your position and confirm your limits. (I do not practice that.)

If, on the other hand, the following applies, then you are in the right place:

  • In the last 14 days, you have lost at least one night of sleep over a professional decision.
  • You are in the position to implement a decision this week – not after three more rounds of coordination.
  • You are prepared to transfer the fee before the appointment – because commitment is not a point of negotiation for you.

Format and Investment

Format: 90 to 120 minutes, online via Zoom, from your office. A single appointment.
Investment: 2,400 EUR plus VAT, payable before the appointment via bank transfer.
Risk: I carry it. See guarantee above.

For comparison: A personnel decision that you delay three weeks longer than necessary typically costs a medium-sized company between 40,000 and 200,000 EUR in direct and indirect follow-up costs. The 2,400 EUR is not the investment. The delay is the investment.

How to reach me

The direct way is the telephone.

+49 69 4800 8888

Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM. If I am in a session, I will call you back.

On weekends, the phone is off. If you call on Saturday, leave a message – I will call back Monday morning.

If calling is not possible right now:

Email to info@johannesfaupel.com with the subject “Preliminary Consultation” and three suggested times. Response within 24 hours.

WhatsApp is used exclusively with clients I have already worked with: +49 173 6788714.

The Process

  1. Preliminary Consultation (10 minutes, phone). we clarify in ten minutes whether the intervention fits your situation. If not, I will tell you directly – and recommend a colleague if necessary.
  2. Appointment Confirmation and Invoice – on the same day.
  3. Advance Transfer secures the appointment.
  4. The Session – 90 to 120 minutes via Zoom. Then your decision regarding the guarantee.

Not ready for a session yet? Then read this.

Perhaps you recognize yourself in what is written above. Perhaps the pressure isn’t great enough yet, maybe it’s just not the right moment, or maybe you want to see how I think before you transfer 2,400 EUR. All of that is legitimate.

For this exact case, I have written a letter. It is seven pages long, it is printed, and I will send it to you by post. Not by email.

The letter contains what I have learned in 16 years of working with Board Members, CEOs, and Family Office Principals about one single mechanism: why top executives postpone decisions they have already made – and how to interrupt this mechanism in under ten minutes. Alone. Without a coach.

This is not a PDF. No newsletter. No funnel. It is a letter that I personally put in an envelope, address to you, stamp, and drop into the mailbox at the end of my street. It will arrive in two to four business days.

If you want it, write me an email at info@johannesfaupel.com with:

  • Your name
  • Your postal address (business or private – you decide)
  • In the subject line: “Letter”

What I will not do with your address: pass it on, add it to a mailing list, or start a subscription. You get exactly one letter. What comes after that is up to you.
