I began my professional career as an Executive Assistant and, over the past 25+ years, have evolved into a Senior Executive, CEO Advisor, and member of senior management teams within listed and regulated organisations. This unique professional journey enables me to combine operational excellence with a deep strategic understanding in executive support and advisory roles.
Through close collaboration with CEOs, boards, and international leadership teams, I have supported IPOs, M&A transactions, large-scale transformation programmes, and complex regulatory environments. I help senior leaders anticipate C-level priorities, structure decision-making processes with clarity, prepare high-impact leadership communications, and manage demanding stakeholder interactions with discretion, professionalism, and confidence.
In addition to executive support, I advise senior leaders on strategic positioning and personal communications, ensuring that decisions are thoroughly prepared, efficiently executed, and delivered with precision.
Fluent in multiple languages and at home in international high-performance environments, I offer a rare combination of executive-level strategic insight and hands-on operational excellence.
Building on extensive management experience in international listed organisations and more than a decade of entrepreneurial leadership as a founder and CEO, I combine a strategic perspective with practical execution.
My international career — across global financial and industrial organisations — has shaped my intercultural expertise and my ability to lead and support complex transformation processes. Both within corporate structures and as an entrepreneur, I have advised and supported CEOs through key phases, including restructurings, IPOs, M&A transactions, and crises.
This blend of robust management expertise and real-world implementation experience delivers lasting value for CEOs, executive teams, and boards seeking comprehensive, pragmatic, and results-driven executive advisory.
With a sharp focus on market trends, financial markets, and technological developments — particularly in artificial intelligence — I provide relevant insights and forward-looking strategies to support confident, high-impact leadership decisions.
Executive Advisory in all phases of your management career and challenges – Change and Transformation
I address challenging situations resulting from M&As, succession planning, as well during the post-merger integration (PMI); during IPOs, market disruptions, crises, and transformations linked to AI.
You benefit from my problem-solving approach and active support during implementation.
Strong communication skills: I am an active listener who expresses ideas and expectations clearly. Active listening is crucial because it fosters understanding, trust, and meaningful dialogue.
Decisive decision-maker: I balance short-term needs with long-term goals. This is crucial for balancing risks and rewards in uncertain or ambiguous situations. Particularly in a time of continuous change.
Creative, analytical thinker: This means analysing situations comprehensively, recognising clear connections, evaluating facts critically, considering different perspectives and then making well-founded decisions.
Acting with foresight. I am curious about trends, open to change and focussed on the future. Instead of just reacting, I recognise opportunities early on and actively shape the next step. I scrutinise the status quo, think strategically and make decisions with a long-term impact. For me, change is not a threat, but an opportunity to drive growth and innovation. Thinking ahead means leading – with courage, vision and foresight
