Certified Entrepreneur Coach Training - EMP Practitioner

Successful intra- and entrepreneurs react quickly, innovatively and are appropriately willing to take risks. The ILD Entrepreneur Coach™ qualification (EMP Practitioner) shows you how to develop and leverage the entrepreneur profile of employees and teams.



Expand your competence profile to become an Entrepreneur Coach (EMP Practitioner).

In entrepreneurship, success and risk factors are close together. One of the biggest success factors is the entrepreneur himself. Since there is no such thing as the perfect entrepreneur, it is important for every leader or organization to become aware of their strengths and learning areas in order to be able to master the challenges.

Good for your portfolio.

The goal of the training is to enable you to diagnose the Entrepreneur Profile of individuals and teams based on the scientifically standardized Entrepreneurial Mindset Profile™ method developed in the USA, and to initiate role-based consulting or targeted coaching to develop entrepreneurial competencies. Through the internationally certified Entrepreneur Coach™ training, you will expand your business portfolio in your role and be able to use the EMP Method® commercially.

Entrepreneurial Mindset Profile™.

Successful entrepreneurship is based on the interplay of the entrepreneur’s personality, skills and experience. The Entrepreneurial Mindset Profile™ (EMP) is a unique, proprietary test procedure developed by the Leadership Development Institute, Eckerd College, USA, to measure 14 critical personality traits and skills. It is characterized by ease of use and good visual presentation of results.

  • “Successful HR work is a question of attitude! For this reason, we have for years regularly taken advantage of the opportunity to provide our HR Business Partners with unique impulses for role-specific further development in ILD’s open HRBP program at the bbw Hochschule. (…) The consistently positive feedback from all our participants encourages us to gladly continue this joint path with ILD.”

    Stefan Moschko | Head of HR Germany, Siemens AG

  • “The presentation of a real case as part of the HR Business Partner qualification was also a great experience for me as a case giver. The open exchange with the participants gave me new impulses, exciting suggestions for solutions and also really creative ideas that led to ‘thinking out of the box’. I am impressed by everything that happens in this training and the high level of qualification and certification. Keep it up!”

    Dr. Michael Pfeil | Site Head Dessau + Biotechnology/Vice President, Merz Pharma

  • “The combination of theoretical knowledge transfer and practical cases, always customer-oriented and highly professional, inspired me. Since there was always time and space for the group to share their experiences, valuable impulses broadened their own view and strengthened their attitude. Great group dynamics, intensive exchange in a feel-good atmosphere. Thank you very much, ILD!”

    Sarina Blume | HR Business Partner, Cornelsen Publishing Group

  • “I now look deeper, have a greater understanding for others and also for myself and my actions. It was a great qualification with a lot of heart and soul and commitment from the ILD instructors. And in the end I can say: I have developed attitude and impact – phenomenal and repeatedly confirmed by my business!”
