Guiding change,
strengthening organizations
I advise organizations in academia, education and civil society: universities, associations, foundations, research institutions. Most of the time it's about change. A strategy that needs to be developed. Structures, decision-making processes, knowledge management or internal communication that no longer work.
My approach is systemic. That means I don't just look at the problem on the table but at the organisation around it. At patterns, dependencies and what has remained unspoken. The solution is not predetermined. And it belongs to the organisation in the end, not to me.
How I work
Every engagement starts with thorough analysis: conversations with the people involved, document analysis, focus groups, depending on what the situation requires. Building on that, I work in workshops, through interventions and in direct advisory work with leadership and teams.
Many of my consulting engagements run over months. I reassess regularly, keep the goal in focus together with teams and leadership and make visible where decisions are still pending or where implementation has stalled.
When needed, I work with a network of specialists in communications consulting, brand strategy and corporate identity, design, process consulting and software development.
