You’ve built something meaningful. You’re driven. Smart. Committed.

And yet…

You sometimes feel stuck. You second-guess your decisions. You wonder if you’re losing yourself in the process of leading others.

If that resonates, you’re not alone. And you’re exactly who I work with.

leadership begins with you

Coaching existed long before it had a name. It was called leadership.

Real leadership doesn’t start with strategy. It starts with you:

- How you think, speak, and decide

- How you respond to pressure and complexity

- How you lead yourself before you ever lead others

You don’t need more tactics. You need clarity. Presence. Communication that creates trust and momentum.

I don’t teach methods. I help you become the kind of leader who doesn’t need them.

Wondering what it feels like to work together? Clients often tell me the work feels natural, unforced—and deeply aligned with who they are. Here’s how they describe the experience: why this work feels different.

this is for you if…

You’ve achieved success,

but something still feels off.

You’re tired of overthinking,

second-guessing, and slow decisions.

You want to lead with clarity,

not noise.

You’ve outgrown chasing success—

you want to define it on your own terms.

You want to lead with presence,

congruence, and freedom.

And maybe… you’re ready

to stop doing it all alone.

If any of this rings true—you’re in the right place.

why this coaching is different

1. leadership, not just coaching

I teach clarity, not content. We cut the fluff so you:

Say less, but lead more powerfully

 

Decide faster and with more certainty

 

Communicate in a way people follow—

because they trust you

 

2. real experience, real results

Most coaches work from theory. I don’t.

Rercruited executives across continents as a headhunter

 

Coached leaders at one of the worlds top business schools

 

Built and sold businesses in Europe and Africa

 

Walked through Sahara solo and sailed across the continent

 

3. less is more

Leadership is subtraction, not addition. Together, we remove what’s in your way so you can:

Speak with clarity people trust

 

Decide without doubt

 

Lead as yourself—not a role you’re performing

 

I've led in boardrooms, in deserts, and on water. I know pressure. I know freedom. And I know the price of not being true to yourself.

Therefor:

No off-the-shelf systems.

No templates.

Just the alignment of words, actions, and presence — so your leadership feels as real on the inside as it looks on the outside.

3 ways to work with me

coaching thoughts

Coaching isn’t for when things are falling apart.
It’s for when you’re ready to rise—clearer, bolder, more you.

If you’ve lost your edge…
If second-guessing is slowing you down…
If you’re ready to lead with clarity, presence, and freedom…

Let’s talk.

about me – experience that creates clarity

I’m Florian Hornig – coach, adventurer, and entrepreneur.

For over two decades, I’ve worked at the intersection of leadership, career, and personal growth — as an international headhunter, a career consultant at ESCP Europe, and founder of Simplicity of Happiness.

What I saw early on: leaders hitting their goals but feeling lost inside.
The price of success was often stress, disconnection, or burnout.
And I knew — leadership doesn’t have to be that way.

So I took a different path.
Today, I help entrepreneurs and women in leadership redefine how they lead — with more clarity, more honesty, and more alignment.

My approach? Not theory. Not formulas.
Just real clarity — from the inside out.
So you can know what matters. And let go of what doesn’t.

What shaped me?
- Years in business.
- Nights alone in the desert.
- Weeks at sea.


And the truth that stayed with me:
Real leadership begins with yourself.

about simplicity of happiness – clarity over complexity

Leadership isn’t complicated. But most make it so—by chasing more: more pressure, more goals, more noise.
And in all that doing, they lose what really creates impact.

Simplicity of Happiness is my response to that.
It’s not about slowing down. It’s about stripping away what’s in the way—so you can lead with focus, presence, and honesty.

I don’t teach strategies. I create clarity.
Through deep insight, sharp communication, and real self-leadership.

This is not classic leadership coaching.
It’s a clean cut through the noise—toward the clarity that lets you lead on your terms.

Less stress. Less pretending.
More truth. More impact.
