About me
I am an independent business consultant, facilitator, coach and meditation teacher.
I support companies, organisations, communities and individuals in transformation processes towards sustainability and can draw on a wealth of experience.
My particular focus is on promoting co-creation, participation and self-organisation. Many of these projects have won national and international awards over the years.
I specialise in multi-stakeholder processes, which involve initiating trusting cooperation between a large number of stakeholders with very different interests.
