This is how I work

This is how I work

  • Solution first, politics second. The right solution is in focus – with the situation and context in mind. And political considerations only when they are really needed.
  • Everyone on board, faster to the solution. What is true in change management is also true for any other project. If you involve key stakeholders early on, you will have to make fewer corrections later on.
  • Think and act positively. Because too many negative thoughts block progress unnecessarily.
  • Methodically adept & flexible in the situation. There is usually no “one-fits-all”.
  • Fun at work, because it always makes things easier.
  • Digital, where possible; personal, where useful.

Working Principles

Always keep the goal in mind

Data & facts first, assumption second

Positive vibes

Inclusive – every opinion counts
