Why Ego Development?

Many scientific studies suggest that Ego Development is a “master trait” of personality that has a profound impact on what is fundamentally possible for you as a human being, both content-wise and socially.

With each stage of Ego Development that you reach as a human being, certain abilities unfold, which are only then fully and effortlessly available to you. At the same time, each stage of development contains fundamental limits to which you as a human being are still subject and which you cannot simply “break” – unless you continue to develop vertically.

Research from around the world shows that as people develop their ego:

understand yourself, other people and social situations better

be able to master complex social requirements more successfully and sustainably

become more tolerant and accept other people more in their respective being

are able to implement comprehensive organizational change projects more successfully

Be able to form deeper relationships with others (friends, spouse, co-workers, etc.) without having to forget about yourself

be able to carry out responsible management functions more comprehensively

be able to deal more freely with yourself and with the demands that will come your way.

For executives

Develop a new level of personal effectiveness.

For coaches and consultants

Understand more in-depth with Ego Development and advise more specifically.

For companies and organizations

Sustainable change through vertical development.

For private individuals

A concrete way to really develop personally.

Ego development - the book

Basic work on scientific research, stage model, location in the topic of personality and practical relevance of ego development

Dr. Susanne Cook-Greuter: "Thomas Binder's work presents the world's most comprehensive and fundamental study of the concept of ego development."

What readers write about it, from reviews on amazon:

And finally there is a work that deals with the subject of "vertical development" in a more differentiated, precise, legible and profound manner than the literature I have known so far.

Anyone who has had the opportunity to experience Thomas Binder knows how much he stands for this topic and with how much passion and unbelievable depth he speaks about this important topic.

The book makes this complex topic tangible and discussable. From my point of view: 5 stars plus!

What we want to bring into the world

A world with increasingly changeable, confusing, complex and ambiguous contexts (VUCA) needs people who can deal with them adequately and effectively. From our point of view, increasing personal maturity makes a decisive contribution to this.

Because Ego-Development is not an end in itself – no matter how fascinating this topic may be.

With our work, we therefore want to contribute to bringing the model of Ego Development, which has been extensively researched in psychology for decades, from the academic world into our world. Technical competence is important, but often not sufficient on its own.

We promote this through a variety of activities:

Own research

Linking and utilizing the treasure trove of knowledge already available

Development of further methods and procedures

Publications and lectures

Training of coaches, consultants & HR professionals

Ego Development coaching for people in responsible positions

in comprehensive organizational consulting projects with a vertical development orientation
