Burnout Prevention Coach from Zurich for Companies and Managers
I am Cornelia Gürtler, with over 17 years of experience in the financial industry and solid leadership expertise. With clarity, structure, and empathy, I empower managers – and foster healthy, high-performing teams.
Responsibility Should not Come at the Expense
of Health
Do you know the feeling when everything becomes overwhelming? When you have to keep going even though you already feel that you are not doing well? Many people around me have felt the same – and so have I. I have experienced how demanding it can be when multiple factors weigh heavily at the same time: a full-time job, family challenges, and too little time for recovery.
These experiences – combined with my work in a high-performance environment – have shaped me deeply. Today, as a Stress and Burnout Prevention Coach, I support managers in taking proactive steps to reduce strain and lead in a healthy, sustainable way. Those who carry great responsibility have to take even more care of themselves and their teams.
How My Values as a Burnout Prevention Coach Can positively influence your Business
I do not see my work as “one size fits all” coaching. With my extensive training and many years of leadership experience, I kindly invite you to rethink leadership. The following values you will recognize in every coaching session, every workshop, and every conversation – and for me they make the difference.
Value 1: Clarity
We take an honest look – especially at the uncomfortable topics. Too many managers and companies look away as soon as things become challenging. But this is exactly where the greatest development potential lies. For your business, your managers, and your employees.
Value 2: Empathy and Humanity
In case work and/or leadership becomes overwhelming, it can be extremely draining. This is why it is especially important to me not to judge – but to support managers and employees with attentive listening and genuine understanding, on equal footing. So they can return to their roles with renewed energy and motivation.
Value 3: Responsibility
You carry responsibility – for yourself and for your team. To help you manage this responsibility well, I will guide you in taking proactive steps, recognizing prevention as a key leadership responsibility, and leading in a healthy, sustainable way.
What Sets Me Apart Professionally
I have over 17 years of experience in the financial industry and have held leadership positions for many years. I know what it means to balance performance pressure, team responsibility, and personal standards.
Alongside my business management degree, I have completed extensive further training – including at the Swiss Academy for Burnout Prevention:
- Dipl. Burnout Prevention Coach sab-p®
- AVEM Certificate in Self-Overload and Burnout Patterns
- Certified GREATOR Life Coach
My Mission as a Stress and Burnout
Coach in Zurich
With unburnt, I focus on burnout prevention in the professional context. My mission is to actively support performance-driven, numbers-focused companies, managers with high-level responsibility, and employees in demanding work environments. That is why I developed my own method tailored specifically to businesses: the “Balanced Workplace”. It is easy to apply, fully adaptable, and combines solid expertise with hands-on experience – making it the perfect fit for demanding, dynamic work environments.
A Few Facts About Me Personally
I grew up in the south of Germany and have been living in Zurich since 2019. Music and nature have been a constant in my life. At 15, I almost began studying piano – but decided to complete my high school diploma first.
One of my most formative experiences was my year abroad in Brazil, where I taught underprivileged children mathematics and English. This taught me how much connection is created when you truly listen and are fully present – regardless of background, language, or culture.
I love meaningful conversations, authentic people, and fulfilling professional encounters. I find my own balance in nature while hiking or cycling, in yoga, or on culinary discovery trips.
