Fabian, Dominik, and I founded Sharpist inspired by Tasha Eurich's claim that, while 90% of people believe they are self-aware, only 10% actually are. This fact harms people's interactions with others as well as with themselves. Bringing the most personalized way to learn and grow through coaching to everyone will change the scale.
SHARPIST IS HIRING!

A great place to work
Working at Sharpist is an experience full of:
aha! moments
As a digital platform for professional development, we believe professional and personal growth should be a basic right for all employees, no matter their seniority or position. And it shows! One of the perks of joining us is free personalized top-level coaching, so you can reach your full potential.
wow! moments
Being part of our team means working surrounded by incredibly bright and talented people. Ideas fly and flow so fast it’s hard to keep up. We’re excited to hear yours!
haha! moments
Having fun is an essential part of our day-to-day life. Everyone is encouraged to disconnect in order to reconnect, that’s why you will always find someone playing ping pong, having a chat while drinking tea or Club Mate (a very Berlin thing to do), or simply chilling in between tasks.
paw! moments
We wouldn’t be 100 % complete without our furry four-legged colleagues! We absolutely adore having their photos get shared around, or when they crash our meetings or join us for a coffee chat (both online and offline). We are, however, always mindful of possible allergies or other restrictions of our two-legged colleagues and that’s why, if necessary, we get to enjoy the pet's presence online only. :)
Join our team of +20 nationalities.

Covid-19 & how we work with it
We care about our employees’ health and safety. That’s why we encourage those who can to work from home. And for those who cannot or those who feel more comfortable working from the office, we make sure to keep the office a safe space.
- there's more than enough space to keep our distance
- we always wear masks when not at our desk
- office surfaces cleaned and disinfected on a regular basis (+ hand sanitizers available for everyone)
Feedback & Reviews
We communicate non-violent and direct.
Feedback is a key element in our company culture, so take a look at what others say on public platforms.
Feedback Culture within Sharpist
With our feedback tool Leapsome, we run quarterly feedback sessions for employees and leaders and offer a space of reflection about mutual expectations, career path, performance, and the alignment to our cultural principles.
Being non-violent & direct is one of our cultural principles. So we not only care about giving feedback but also about the approach of giving and receiving it.
