Mission
My Why
Leadership today isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about creating clarity, building trust, and leading with purpose —especially when the future is uncertain.
My work supports leaders navigating high-stakes, fast-moving environments. Whether they’re founders scaling quickly, executives driving transformation, or teams managing complexity—I help them lead with confidence, align their people, and adapt in real time.
I believe:
Leadership needs to be both human-centered and future-ready.
High performance is built on trust, not control.
Innovation grows in cultures where people feel safe to experiment, speak up, and take ownership.
I work with leaders, founders, executives, and change agents who are not only solving today’s problems, but also designing what’s next. Because the future won’t be led by those with perfect plans. It will belong to those with the clarity and capacity to adapt.
As intelligent systems become part of how we work, lead, and decide, a new capability is emerging:
Strategic Human-AI Teaming.
I support organizations in designing effective collaboration between humans and AI — building trust, enhancing decision-making, and unlocking the full potential of hybrid teams.
Because the future of leadership is not about controlling machines — it’s about shaping ecosystems where humans and AI thrive together.
Shaping the Future of Work:
Trust. Collaboration. Human-centered Innovation

Experience Meets Vision
I’ve built companies, led through crisis, and learned what leadership truly demands—not from theory, but through lived experience.
Over the past two decades, I’ve helped leaders navigate transformation, complexity, and growth—drawing on the lessons I once had to learn firsthand.
With a background that bridges business, behavioral science, and innovation, I bring a rare combination of real-world insight and research-driven methods to every engagement. Today, I teach at the Munich Center for Digital Sciences & AI, advise organizations on innovation and change, and design leadership programs across industries.
In my current research, I explore Strategic Human-AI Teaming (Human-in-the-loop Principle), how leaders can build trust, enable collaboration, and drive performance in hybrid teams of humans and intelligent systems.
I believe leadership isn’t something you study once — it’s something you live, evolve, and practice every day.
Passion
From founder and endurance athlete to strategist and professor — my work is shaped by experience and focused on helping leaders grow into what’s next.
"When leaders draw strength from within, they don’t just navigate uncertainty—they help others find meaning in it."
- Inspired by Martin Seligman
How I can support you
What I offer
I design leadership experiences that transform how leaders think, decide, and lead in complexity. Each program blends deep expertise with practical application — tailored to your goals, your culture, and your real-world context.
I coach teams and leaders design Human-AI collaboration, creating experimental spaces where new ways of working with intelligent systems can be tested, shaped, and scaled.
My Core Programs:
Leadership Human & AI-Sprint: Leading with Intelligence
A 4-week intensive for leaders who want to stay clear, confident, and adaptive — and learn to lead effectively alongside intelligent systems. We build resilience, sharpen decision-making under pressure, and explore how Human-AI collaboration can strengthen leadership when it matters most.
(Ideal for leaders navigating environments where human judgment and machine intelligence meet).
Leadership Sprint: Leading in Uncertain Times
A 6-week intensive for leaders navigating volatility, focused on building resilience, clarity, and confident decision-making under pressure (Ideal for high-stakes leadership moments).
Executive Intelligence: AI in Action
A hands-on executive workshop to design a custom AI agent system that supports decision-making, forecasting, and adaptive leadership—grounded in your business reality.
Strategy Lab: Team Alignment for Critical Transitions
A tailored workshop series for leadership or cross-functional teams to create clarity, align around strategic priorities, and accelerate momentum in times of change. Whether launching a transformation, resetting focus, or moving from insight to action (Includes the option to create experimental spaces for Human-AI collaboration, enabling teams to test, learn, and adapt together).
