Unlocking human potential is a mantra for me personally, because I think that if we better utilize the best in us, we will manage to create a better world for all”. This methodology with roots are in positive psychology is based not only on his own experience, but also the experience of many of the top individuals in the global world of business, politics, as well as sport, with whom he had the honor to meet, work and spend time worldwide for many years.

Jan awards his success to being able to unlock his potential, but mostly to unlocking the potential of people he worked with. His justification in his own words: “According to Gallup only 13 percent of people enjoy working in their current job, others go to work just to earn money. The world currently functions on only 13 percent of its economic and social opportunities. It is possible to change this.”
Jan Mühlfeit chose this difficult task as his new mission. As stated above he created a unique methodology for finding personal uniqueness and fulfilling the vision and mission of each person through their individual uniqueness.
