Organizational Design
Creating structures that foster learning, autonomy, and adaptability as core organizational capabilities – with a clear focus on continuous value creation.
I work with leaders who want to evolve themselves and their organizations in the age of artificial intelligence — creating clarity, effective leadership, and human-ai collaboration that drive meaningful outcomes.
As a founder, experienced product owner, computer scientist, and former business unit head, I know how hard it is to build structures that truly last. Today, I help others and share my insights as a coach, speaker, and organization designer, with a focus on:
Leadership
Connecting people, systems, and intelligent technologies — simplifying leadership, strengthening collaboration, and enabling clear, confident decision-making.
I regularly facilitate workshops and cohorts that explore new ways of working and leading in the age of AI. Over the past years, I have delivered sessions for teams and given talks at organizations such as HP, Boehringer Ingelheim, Ecovadis, Foolproof, DB Schenker, Continentale Versicherung, as well as for international clients from globally leading consulting firms.
My work draws on and contributes to modern approaches to organizational design and leadership.
I use ideas from these approaches as tools, not templates — and combine them with practical organizational design to make structures work in real life.
