The demands on corporate and staff leadership are complex and constantly growing:
From the definition of an inspiring mission/vision/strategy
Over coping with workload and skills shortages
To creating meaning in work or: purpose
In addition to that, managers are expected to take on more and more roles, such as the readily available contact person and good listener, cost reduction expert, career coach, mentor, etc. They are rarely prepared or accompanied for this task.
Establishing organizational structures that enable everyone to work in an efficient, focused manner. Structures and processes that motivate and lead to higher employee retention.
Coaching and "sparring" for managers to solve leadership issues, (in order)to help them develop their own understanding of leadership and cope with the numerous tasks and growing demands on leaders.
Successful and trusting teamwork through better communication, clear agreements on cooperation and understanding mutual expectations - regardless of where the team members sit.
My approach combines the expertise in operational processes and structures with the knowledge of neurological processes and their influence on our behaviour. Understanding that and how our brain controls our behaviour is essential for any successful change: in accepting and embracing the new, overcoming resistance, developing new routines, upholding good resolutions or even resolving conflicts.
In our collaboration, trust, reliability, diligence and expertise on my part are of course a prerequisite. Other benefits include:
Three decades of experience enable me to quickly assess the most diverse business models, cultures, leadership styles, and willingness for change. Thus, I am able to bring projects forward in a targeted manner "on time, in budget". Key performance indicators make the success of change visible.
Clear, appropriate communication at all levels, a pragmatic approach without theoretical models or technical terms help to win over the organization and the teams for the common path and to overcome resistance quickly.
Further topics on organization, personnel or processes often develop within an assignment. With my expertise and many years of experience in operational topics, I can support you without the need for additional consultant resources.
All approaches must remain adaptable to unexpected events. After 30 years in this industry, all possible challenges are familiar to me and have already successfully been mastered at least once.
Through many years of international project experience and stays abroad, I have become familiar with different work and team cultures. Workshops and trainings can be bilingual (D/E) which is more effective in international teams.
Energetic. Convincing. Inspiring.
Clear. Pragmatic. Efficient.
