New challenges require different approaches.
It's not about predicting the future, but making it possible today.
Auf zu neuen Zukunftshorizonten.

Keynote-Speaker.
Impulse giver.
As a future researcher, social scientist and journalist with many years of diverse experience, I am fundamentally open and professionally flexible to move and position myself in neighbouring or overlapping subject areas on future issues.
Mountaineer. Polar Explorer.
Inspiration.
I can also be found in the mountains of this world - the Himalayas, the Andes, the Caucasus, where I climb to about 7000 meters - but also the Alps and Scandinavia. I crossed Greenland on skis with pulka sled and tent, almost 600 km, 1 month long. I am always drawn to the high mountains and the vastness of the polar regions. I am fascinated by the clarity, the power and the new dimensions of time and space as if on a future expedition.

In over ten years, I have built up a close-knit network of experts with different levels of expertise. When a project requires special skills or more capacity, trusted team players are brought directly into the project.

I work with you worldwide, over a short or longer period of time, holistically and solution-oriented. Diverse experience from different continents and industries form the foundation of flexibility, dynamism and vision.
Suitable format. Flexible time period.

Together we will develop the path to your goal. Are you curious? Get in touch with me without any complications.
My toolbox contains a comprehensive set of systemic methods and approaches, which I use primarily in a participative, agile, appreciative and situational way - and virtually and in presence.
Foresight ist ein strategischer Prozess zur längerfristigen Vorausschau. Analysiert werden mögliche und wünschenswerte Entwicklungen in einem Zeithorizont bis zu 10 oder 15 Jahren.
Hier steht ein kleiner Text zum Tool Agilität – viele können eventuell damit nichts anfangen. Eine kurze Erklärung würde helfen
Der Fokus wird hier auf bereits vorhandenes oder schon aufblitzendes Potenzial einer Organisation gerichtet, auf deren Stärken und bereits erbrachte Leistungen sowie der Bedeutung der Wirkung von Bildern und Geschichten, die innerhalb der Unternehmens erschaffen und verwendet werden. – Define, Discover, Dream, Design & Destiny
Scenario Planning, in der deutschen Sprache auch Szenariotechnik genannt, ist eine systematische Methode, um ein Spektrum an möglichen vielfältigen Zukunftslandschaften zu entwerfen. Es geht dabei weder um Prognosen noch um gute oder schlechte Szenarien. Vielmehr kann auf Basis der entwickelten Szenarien flexibles, wirksames und effektives Denken und Handeln erzielt werden.
