Team
as a team you can do everything
Partners & Cooperation
Together we are unbeatable
Over the years, I have gathered hand-picked people and organizations that have proven to work well together, without whom my work would only have half the reach, quality and sustainability.
Both networks and partnerships are relationships that need to be nurtured. Here you can find my most important collaborations and partnerships.
Networks
d-network.org: The D-Network is an association of independent consultants and coaches. Whenever major projects need to be staffed with the best possible experts, I turn to the D.Network.
Together, we put the horsepower on the road that is needed to cover the majority of potential entrepreneurial challenges in the areas of strategy & innovation, collaboration & leadership and communication & presence.
12min.me: 12min.me is a non-profit association that organizes professional, entertaining and free after-work networking events in over 20 cities worldwide.
The aim of the events is to bring people together in a relaxed atmosphere, to inspire them and to share knowledge. We always invite 3 speakers to our events, who are also on stage on a voluntary basis. As the honorary City Lead, I am responsible for the Berlin location. You are always welcome to join us.

GSA: The German Speaker Association is the association of German speakers and is affectionately known as “the home of speaking”. As a professional speaker, I am a member of this network so that I can exchange ideas with my peers. The book “Unternehmensstärke – 15 Essays für mehr Erfolg” was written with fellow speakers from the GSA.
