Description

Transform Your Organization with AI Strategy, Leadership Development, and Pragmatic Execution

I help tech companies, startups, and corporate innovation teams to:

✓ Demystify AI Integration – I show leaders and teams how to strategically use Claude, ChatGPT, and other AI tools, instead of feeling overwhelmed.

✓ Overcome Psychological Blockades – Using Robert Kegan's "Immunity to Change" and systemic coaching, I uncover what truly prevents teams from experimenting.

✓ From Strategy to Execution – Design Thinking, Lean Startup, and Business Model Innovation not as workshop theory, but as hands-on implementation with measurable results.

What sets me apart:

I'm not just a consultant – I've founded and built two companies myself (Lebenskleidung: ~€1M revenue, market leader in sustainable textiles). Since 2020, I've been working operationally in a VC Fund (Ex-Stripe Founder Syndicate), where I've supported 3 SaaS acquisitions, developed pitch decks, and coached CEOs.
