About Niklas

I support organizations in reducing complexity and making clear, actionable decisions from demanding projects. My strength lies in connecting people, perspectives, and data, breaking down silos, and creating viable structures and processes.

I have several years of professional experience in consulting (e.g., KPMG) and was the project lead for the cooperation between WWF Germany and Deutsche Bank's retail banking division for two years.
