My Offer

Recognising the future and making it concrete: For this art, I offer a path.

Words are sometimes not enough.

In the future workshop, you learn how you can grasp the future by bringing possibilities into the present and playing through them with open senses.

I offer a protected, open-ended and concentrated space for this.

I accompany you through the future workshop with in-depth questions and empathetic reflection.

About me

Lukas König

I offer my ability to empathise with people and their potentials, to make them appear and to have an activating effect on their development.

I am enthusiastic about making the future artistically present: clear, moving and alive.

In Coaching I give unconditional attention, playful impulses and individual support in dissolving inner blockages and obstacles.

Experiential knowledge, openness and intuition are my sources.

What others say

"My creativity was stimulated in an autonomous and natural way. I discovered a lot of new things in the process. I got in touch with myself and was able to be in the here and now more easily and just let my talent flow. Acting, moving and discovering brought me very, very much happiness!"
Maarja Purga
Opera singer
"Participation meant a great opportunity for me to awaken my body's intelligence. In a playful way I discovered and collected useful material for my work. For example, how I can point out changes that are potentially there, follow them and stay in the flow."
Jan Vodička
Psychodrama Therapist Trainee
"One of Lukas' talents seems to me to be his ability to see through the essence of things and to bring loose threads together. With a great deal of patience, he is able to calm strong feelings and emotions and he knows how to loosen up entrenched structures with humour."

My offer

Recognising the future and putting it into words is an art. I offer a way to do this.

Sometimes words are not enough.

In the future workshop you learn to grasp the future by bringing possibilities into the present and acting them out as real as possible. With curiosity open to results.

I provide a protected and concentrated space for this.

Through in-depth questions and empathetic reflection, I accompany you step by step through the concrete questions of the future workshop.

About me

Lukas König

I offer my ability to empathise with people and their potentials, to make them appear and to have an activating effect on their development.

I am enthusiastic about making the future artistically present: clear, moving and alive.

In coaching I give unconditional attention, playful impulses and individual support in dissolving inner blockages and obstacles.

Experiential knowledge, openness and intuition are my sources.

For communities

You are a residential or living community and want to…

… find the ideas that connect you?

… be mindful of different views and needs?

… live together in a lively and trusting culture?

In a future workshop I will give you the tools to do this. I help you to dissolve blockages and to get into a productive flow.

I show you how to move through your questions and visions of the future by artistically shaping and acting them out as real events.

You will gain access to possibilities of perception and expression that go far beyond ‘intellectual head knowledge’ and ‘verbal exchange’.

You do not need any special previous experience. It’s all about real encounters and authentic experiences that are the midwives for your future!

Each one of you remains free to follow your own feet throughout the process.

Examples of when a future workshop can be useful:

– In the founding phase of a residential community.

– When the group changes because people leave or new people join.

– In conflict and crisis situations.

When there is a desire for joint activity and when the group wants to grow together through shared experiences.

For working groups

Do you want to be sustainable as a working group?

Is cooperation at eye level important to you?

In a future workshop you can practise the skills for this.

For example:

1. being able to create a culture of communication and structures that support the free development of individual skills and talents.

2. being able to empathise with others and encourage initiative.

3. being able to recognise commonalities and think in larger contexts.

In a variety of settings, I have developed expertise in making precisely these key

key qualifications can be experienced and learned.

In the Future Workshop you can acquire them yourself. Using concrete examples and learning by doing.

I will show you how to act out your work processes, ideas and goals in a concrete way, so that you get realistic pictures of the current situation as well as multi-layered and stimulating insights into where your potential lies and how you can realise it.

I give you a structure and help you to work out the central points for you.

Examples of what a future workshop is helpful for:

– To strengthen inner and outer flexibility and initiative (VUCA skills).

– To solve communication problems in self-governing working groups (e.g. teachers’ colleges).

– To prevent burnout in social and cultural institutions.

– In pilot phases or for the reorientation of common goals (e.g. in start-ups or generational change).

For individuals

You are at a turning point in your biography and ask yourself in which direction you want to go further?

Maybe you have landed in an inner void or chaos and are looking for orientation?

In a future workshop I offer you a protected space to listen to your inner voice.

The special thing is:

You can go into all aspects and variations that you see as possibilities – or impossibilities – for your life and play them out.

I show you how you can try out possibilities, feel them out and melt them in your imagination.

in your imagination. Until you have found your path or inner compass and feel free to decide in which direction you want to go. Like two big rivers or seas, your past and your future meet.

The spray that arises is what you experience here and now. Learn to play with it!

Situations where individual coaching can help:

– For young people. In the transition between school, training, study or work.

– After a burnout and for professional reorientation.

– After separations, illnesses or deaths in one’s own environment.

– For people who want to get closer to their own impulses, abilities and talents and are therefore looking for a new start.

Open future workshops

I regularly offer open future workshops on various topics.

People who are currently dealing with similar questions and issues in their lives come to such future workshops.

You can go through your process in different ways…

… by acting out and moving through your personal questions together with the others.

or

… by playing through and moving the questions of the others with them and thereby inwardly

working on, clarifying and/or expanding your personal questions.

or

… alternating between one and the other.

Each variation is valuable, because you get the opportunity to work in a protected space with yourself and with other people.

yourself and with other people in communication and contact…

… and to discover the future, because: People carry the future within them!
