​About me

Carsten Diederich
Founder of Owl & Fire Coaching
My Story
I believe that true growth happens when we combine clarity with courage.
My own journey has been shaped by both deep lows and big highs – experiences that taught me resilience, humility, and the power of transformation. Today, I bring these lessons into my coaching practice.
​
As Head of Deal-to-Cash Operations in the energy industry, I’ve led teams through complex transformations and international challenges. Beyond the corporate world, I am deeply passionate about people: helping them unlock potential, navigate change, and step into their own strength.
My Values
At the heart of my coaching are values that guide every conversation:
​
-
Honesty & Openness – creating a space where nothing needs to be hidden.
-
Willingness & Humility – staying curious and grounded.
-
Love & Gratefulness – bringing humanity and care to every encounter.
-
Respect, Coherence & Perseverance – ensuring depth, consistency, and progress.
These values are not just words – they reflect how I live, lead, and coach.
Why Owl & Fire?
During a retreat in Senegal, I connected with the Owl as my spirit symbol – representing wisdom, inner clarity, and vision.
The Fire stands for energy, transformation, and the spark that drives us to act.
​
Together, Owl & Fire embodies my coaching style: grounded presence combined with transformative energy.
