philosophy

Cooperation – Empathy – Communication

“The only thing that will redeem mankind is cooperation.”
– Bertrand Russel

Work in the future is built on cooperation. The more complex the world becomes, the more critical the ability to engage in stable cooperation is. This can only function if communication and culture are in sync. The basis required here is a direct and sincere exchange. Only this generates unity and is an integral part of organisation culture – not unlike the nervous system of an organism.  Empathy, as the ability to emotionally identify with the situation and feelings of another person, is a key to successful communication – and to the development of potential.

Cooperation, communication and empathy form the core of my work as consultant for enterprises, agencies and organisations. By comprehending and addressing both the systemic as well as the interpersonal elements of teams and organisational structures, I inspire the willingness to accept and implement change. This is how I contribute to creating a symbiotic culture for everyone involved, to build stronger teams and enterprises that are fit for the future.

portfolio

“Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.”
– Ralph Waldo Emerson

More than consulting: Hands-on consulting.

While other consultants usually don’t go beyond the meta level, I embark on an in-depth encounter with teams and projects, to identify and solve communication and management problems and implement sustainable processes and structures in cooperation with the team and the management level.

As an Implementation Agent, I combine enthusiasm for projects and interpersonal exchange, supplying excellent process support and professional impulses. The result: highly effective consultancy, instruction, training, coaching. For change processes, digital media projects and digital transformation.

Work better: The future of work.

What does digitalisation mean for companies and projects? Which work structures will attract the best hires in the future? How can the potential of teams and employees be maximised in the digital world?

I offer orientation know-how for teams and management staff in workshops and provide the vital momentum to reflect on and adapt individual actions to a changing work environment.

Methodological background: Scrum, Kanban, Design Thinking, Holacracy approach

  • Organizational development: Consulting and facilitation towards a team-oriented and self-organized organization.
