Flagship focus

A roadmap built around German calendar realities

Most exits stall on calendar math: probation vs. regular notice, collective agreements, and when a letter must arrive to count. Our flagship program walks that calendar with you — not as abstract law, but as dated checkpoints.

Why clients come early

Clarity before you speak to HR

  • Translate contract clauses into calendar dates that survive § 622 BGB and any Tarifvertrag that applies.
  • Separate what is negotiable from what is fixed — especially around holiday balances and garden leave.
  • Prepare employer-side notices with the same rigor used for resignations, including delivery proof habits.
  • Document a sequence you can hand to counsel if a dispute later appears.

What participants take away

I arrived certain I could leave end of month. The Roadmap module on delivery timing showed my letter needed to land two weeks earlier — awkward, but far better than a rejected Kündigung.

Useful for our HR desk in Neubrandenburg. The employer sequencing worksheets are concrete. I still wished for a deeper Tarifvertrag appendix, which they flagged as out of scope unless we book counsel separately.
