How I work

Fundamental principles

As a consultant who applies systems theory in much of my work, I am convinced that individual organisations need individual solutions.

My aim is to guide and steer the change process in your organisation, providing support in the form of professional inputs and impulses.

My work is

  • process-oriented and systemic-holistic
  • clearly structured and elucidating
  • inclusive and transparent
  • creative and often with an element of fun
  • sustainable
  • client-oriented and focused on results.

Methods

I focus on my clients and results.

I start every consulting assignment by listening carefully in order to understand precisely what’s special about your organisation and what you want. If needed, I will then assist you in developing your objectives and deriving the intended results. We will clarify what you expect from me as an external organisational consultant and trainer, and we will agree on an approach that is geared to your wishes and needs.

My methods are tailored to your specific requirements. As a rule, I draw on various methods in the advisory process. These include:
