Craftsman for New Work
As a facilitator I develop workshop concepts, design interactions and enable groups to develop the best results possible.
Welcome to my site! The questions about the future of our working world have kept me busy for a decade. For just as long, with my sleeves rolled up, I keep on moving deep into project worlds of startups, the development of organizations with medium-sized companies and corporations, and generally in front of groups with a variety of tools in workshop formats. After all, I’m interested in how the workplace of the future really works – and it’s imperative to try out, discuss and adapt methods. That’s why I see myself as a “Craftsman for New Work”.
The requirements for the development, selling and marketing of products and services have become more complex. Very much more complex.
The world is converted into code. Which business sectors are dying and which are emerging? How do you manage the chaos of complex project environments?
How does the future of work look like? Are algorithms taking over our offices? What are new generations expecting from the workplace of the future?
New generation sales and marketing rely on constant feedback and fast response times. But how do you speak “social media” and continue to sell?
Develop services that put your customers at the center. Innovation needs a variety of ideas. Turn digital channels into relevant touchpoints for your brand.
With Design Thinking I develop services that are effective and relevant the customers you serve.
As a Scrum Master, I help you to navigate in complex project environments. Stop starting, start finishing.
To become more transparent and to share knowledge means to follow the principles of New Work. I show you how to reinvent your organization.
My experience in the development and moderation of workshop formats ranges from working with students at universities to corporate departments and large groups of 200 people to leadership and executive boards. Here is a look into my tool box:
