Get Back Into
the Driver's Seat
Refocus
Recharge
Accelerate
What if it's not your workload that's slowing you down,
but your mental operating system?
Most finance execs aren't failing because of lack of skill.
They're running on a system that was never designed for the pressure they're under.
Welcome, I am Wolfgang Brötz

I help finance execs go from running ragged to getting back in the driver's seat.

In my online coaching (German or English), we find solutions where you haven't looked before.


My Background

• 25+ years in finance (corporate, banking, asset management, startups)
• Understanding the technical and human aspects of finance
• Navigated restructures, mergers, and leadership pressure
• Advanced coaching and stress management techniques
• I have walked in your shoes


Is This You? - Are you stressed since you are …

Lying awake at night, concerned that the constant stress will lead to serious health issues

The chronic stress of high-stakes financial leadership can lead to insomnia, anxiety, and potentially serious long-term health consequences if left unaddressed.

Battling exhaustion and brain fog from poor sleep, questioning your performance edge

Sleep deprivation impacts cognitive function, decision-making abilities, and the mental sharpness needed for complex financial analysis and strategic planning.

Finding it harder to balance work demands with your personal life and well-being

The expanding scope of CFO responsibilities often creates a work-life imbalance that sacrifices personal relationships, health, and overall quality of life.

Leading your team whilst privately anxious about the next restructuring

Managing the pressure of projecting confidence to your team while harboring concerns about organizational changes can create significant emotional strain and imposter syndrome.

You're Running on Empty
Another 14-hour day. Back-to-back meetings. Inbox at 247.
You grab your phone between calls. Just two minutes.

What if just a few minutes a day could shift everything?
Getting back in the driver's seat isn't about working harder.

It's about upgrading how your brain handles stress.

There's a measurable score for this, your Positive Intelligence (PQ) score, and it predicts how much of your potential actually shows up under pressure.

The Hidden Cost of High Performance
Finance leaders face unprecedented pressure.
New role. New team. New expectations.
The stakes are higher than ever.
But here's what nobody talks about:

Without margin (mental and emotional reserves) every challenge hits with full force which leads to:

Reactive decisions
Decision fatigue
Burnout
risk
You need breathing room. Not in six months. Now.
The Real Problem
You've probably tried: better time management. Delegation. Saying no more often.
These help, but they treat the symptom, not the source.
The Real Issue

Your Saboteurs, the mental patterns that hijack your judgment, drain your energy, and keep you reactive instead of strategic.

What You've Tried
  • Better time management
  • Delegation
  • Saying no more often

These help, but they treat the symptom, not the source.

You don't need more willpower.
You need 15 minutes a day.

I launched a 6-week Positive Intelligence program for exhausted finance execs who are done white-knuckling their way through the week.

PQ Reps

Micro-practices that rewire your brain's stress response. Just 15 minutes a day — no willpower required.Daily Audio

Peer Pod (optional)

No Retreats

100% online, join from anywhere. No journaling marathons. Just a structured, science-backed sprint.

The Power of Strategic Micro-Moments
Between meetings. Before a presentation. When your stress level is rising.


A few minutes a day with the right tool and technique can:
Lower your stress response
Restore mental clarity and confidence
Help you show up as the leader you want to be


What makes this program different? - It is a 6-week, science-based sprint with app support.
Why This Works
Neuroscience Foundation

Regular mindfulness practice is associated with measurable changes in brain regions involved in attention, emotion regulation, and self-awareness.

Personalization Principle

Your stress signature is unique. Your tools should be too. Weekly reflection ensures continuous alignment with what actually works for YOU.

Structured Practice with Guidance

Instead of randomly downloading apps you never use, you try tools in a supported way with clear focus.

Accountability Effect to Form Habits

Weekly sessions (60 minutes) keep you consistent for 6 weeks, long enough to form initial habits and see real results.

"I don't have time for this" is exactly what your Saboteur wants you to think.

Your Situation Is Not the Obstacle. The program is designed for people with zero margin:

15 min/day

Minimal daily commitment, maximum impact on your mental operating system.

App-supported

Everything you need is in the palm of your hand, whenever you need it.

Async-friendly

Work through the program on your own schedule, no rigid time slots.

Peer pod for accountability

A small group of peers who understand the pressures you face.
