About me

Sabine Appelhagen
Sabine Appelhagen - Certified Media Trainer - Business Coach - Crisis Communications Manager

For 20 Years

My customers and clients have trusted me for 20 years. They come from a wide variety of backgrounds - but they all have one goal: to exist and inspire in the eyes of the public. This applies to direct communication as well as to communication in the media via camera, monitor and virtual communication. My seminars and individual coaching sessions are always based on individual needs. We set goals together and achieve them usually in a surprisingly short time.

You benefit from my extensive professional experience: As a long-time journalist and presenter (including ProSieben, Bayerischer Rundfunk), I know the rules of the media game and I'm happy to pass on this knowledge. I worked in front of and behind the camera at ProSieben for 15 years, and hosted several radio shows at Bayerischer Rundfunk for five years.

Seit 20 Jahren vertrauen mir meine Kunden und Klienten.
