About
I work with complexity — in leadership roles, organisations, and public conversations where responsibility, perspective, and presence matter.
My path into this work has been shaped by operating across cultures, systems, and roles where expectations were high and clarity was often missing. Over time, this has become less about expertise alone, and more about learning how to stay grounded, perceptive, and responsible in moments that don’t come with a clear script.
Today, I work at the intersection of leadership development, facilitation, moderation, and strategic advisory — supporting people and organisations as they navigate transition, growth, and uncertainty.
Background & Perspective
My professional background spans more than fifteen years across leadership, operations, communications, and organisational work in international contexts. I have worked in senior roles — including Partner and Managing Director — and have advised founders, leadership teams, and organisations operating under pressure, visibility, and change.
Alongside strategic and operational responsibility, I have consistently worked close to people: moderating difficult conversations, facilitating groups, and supporting leaders as they make sense of complexity rather than bypass it.
I am multilingual (English, German, French, Spanish) and have worked across cultures and institutional contexts, which has deeply shaped how I read systems, power, and dynamics — and how I support others in doing the same.
My academic background includes advanced business and leadership education, including an Executive MBA, which continues to inform how I integrate strategy, people, and responsibility rather than treating them as separate domains.
How This Shows Up in My Work
Across different formats — one-to-one leadership work, group settings, organisational engagements, and live, on-stage moderation — my role is often similar:
To create space where complexity can be held without rushing to resolution, where people can see more clearly what matters, and where decisions can be made with greater steadiness and integrity.
This includes:
leadership development and advisory work with individuals carrying responsibility
facilitation of group processes where alignment, trust, or direction are at stake
moderation of complex conversations on stage, including panels, conferences, and public dialogue
training and learning formats focused on leadership, bias, responsibility, and perspective
I have worked in and with organisations and institutions, always tailoring my role to the context rather than applying a fixed model.
Selected Experience
My work spans leadership, facilitation, moderation, and advisory roles across organisational and public contexts. This includes:
Senior leadership roles including Partner and Managing Director, with responsibility across strategy, operations, communications, and people
Strategic and operational advisory work with founders and leadership teams, including fractional and embedded roles
Leadership development and training in international and academic contexts
DEI strategy consulting, keynotes, and trainings, including the development and in-house implementation of DEI work at Scholz & Friends, as well as advisory, keynote, and training engagements for organisations such as RedSeven, Netflix, and others
Moderation and facilitation of complex conversations, including panels, conferences, and public dialogue for WPP, ESCP Europe, and others
This experience informs how I work today — not as a fixed model, but as a grounded understanding of how leadership, responsibility, and complexity show up in real systems.
What Grounds the Work
Beyond professional experience, my perspective is also shaped by life events that required recalibration — loss, transition, and becoming a parent among them. These experiences deepened my respect for ambiguity and reinforced the importance of presence, values, and responsibility when certainty is unavailable.
They also clarified what I am not interested in: performative leadership, oversimplified answers, or work that prioritises speed over thoughtfulness.
Why I Do This Work
I am motivated by creating conditions where people can focus on what only they should be doing — without being pulled under by noise, misalignment, or unnecessary complexity.
Whether in a private conversation, a leadership team, or a public forum, my aim is the same:
to support clarity, grounded decision-making, and conversations that move things forward without losing depth.

Where to start
If you’re navigating a moment of transition, responsibility, or complexity — personally, organisationally, or publicly — the best place to begin is a conversation.
