The Transformer
My Mission & Passion
Complex situations and change are right up my alley—and even after 20 years as a management consultant, there are always new challenges. Whether it’s implementing large-scale projects or supporting companies through restructuring processes, I combine an engineer’s mindset with problem-solving skills and consulting expertise to ensure that companies are well-positioned, changes are successful, and new structures work together seamlessly to achieve something new.
I need a balance! To recharge my batteries, I play ice hockey and squash, go cycling and running, and enjoy hiking, climbing, and skiing in the mountains. Music helps, too—rock when I’m getting things done, classical piano when I’m thinking, and jazz to relax.
Experiences
Across a wide range of industries—from hardware and technology to energy and services, and even the introduction of new cell and gene therapies in the pharmaceutical sector—diversity enriches life! Extended stays in the UK, the U.S., France, and Singapore also broaden one’s perspective.
Skills & Tools
A dynamic “doer” who leads projects and companies to success. An expert in large-scale and comprehensive transformations who drives the implementation of complex initiatives through a combination of organizational insight, determination, foresight, and communication skills.
