About me

I love working with people in orga­ni­sa­tions so that we can become better toge­ther and develop new things. I see and find the poten­tial – in indi­vi­duals, teams and orga­ni­sa­tions. This creates strength and energy in me – and this is how most clients also describe me: as a power woman who sees the posi­tive and is capable of inspi­ring others for new things.

I do a lot of work in the fields of agile trans­for­ma­tion, self-orga­ni­sa­tion and leader­ship. For example, I am certi­fied as a Hola­cracy Coach and I have streng­thened my know­ledge of the topics of error manage­ment and posi­tive leader­ship. As a consul­tant, I always try to explore the limits of theory and prac­tical feasi­bi­lity. I’m also a critical spirit: I chall­enge coope­ra­tion, as I am mainly inte­rested in achie­ving the desired impact. This is also connected with my systemic basis, which conti­nues to be my point of refe­rence and aspiration.

I consider my occu­pa­tion to be a gift. Being involved in deve­lo­p­ment processes on a repeated basis inspires me (even if it can be really exhaus­ting ;)). And I also know these feelings as a mother of two teen­agers and a partner – wonderful, but some­times a chall­enge at the same time. I bring balance to my busy life in yoga, jogging, gardening … and if I have any time left over, I also love to sing!

    About me

    What fasci­nates me about my work is the ques­tion of how change can actually succeed. I am at my most enthu­si­a­stic when accom­panying complex change projects and making the asso­ciated dyna­mics visible, open to discus­sion and workable. One of my grea­test passions is the deve­lo­p­ment of people and orga­ni­sa­tions so that they can reach their full poten­tial. I disco­vered this many years ago in my role as an HR Busi­ness Partner.

    At present, I am inten­si­vely engaged in the ques­tion of how the trans­for­ma­tion of orga­ni­sa­tions, teams and indi­vi­duals to self-orga­ni­sa­tion, agility and purpose drive is able to succeed. I am convinced that the bigger and wider my own inner map of know­ledge and expe­ri­ence is, the better I can accom­pany people and orga­ni­sa­tions through deve­lo­p­ment processes. Ther­e­fore, from a personal and profes­sional perspec­tive, I am in a constant process of further deve­lo­p­ment, which inspires me time and again, and allows me to discover new things.

    In my opinion, trust is an important corner­stone for successful consul­ting. That is why I value accom­panying my clients on a long-term basis and at the same time find it fasci­na­ting how effec­tive a uniquely well-managed inter­ven­tion can be. My approach as a consul­tant is my stron­gest tool. In my work, I believe it is parti­cu­larly important to enable people – mana­gers as well as employees – to take the lead, i.e. to take respon­si­bi­lity for one’s own actions, to commu­ni­cate oneself and to become perso­nally effective.

      About me

      The ques­tion of the meaning of life is some­thing I’ve been grap­pling with since my school days. And then there’s the reali­sa­tion, as inspired by Herr­mann Hesse, that life only has as much meaning as we are able to give it ourselves. Over 20 years of expe­ri­ence in both manage­ment and provi­ding consul­ting services to orga­ni­sa­tions has shown me that meaning, or purpose, also play a decisive role in busi­nesses. Meaningful and purpo­seful work isn’t just a key factor for ensu­ring indi­vi­dual well-being, but also for the posi­tive and sustainable deve­lo­p­ment of people, orga­ni­sa­tions and society.

      I am convinced that a good life always requires good orga­ni­sa­tions. Orga­ni­sa­tions that make a meaningful contri­bu­tion to the healthy and vibrant deve­lo­p­ment of man and society without dama­ging the natural foun­da­tions of life or their social envi­ron­ment. In working with the leaders and employees of global corpo­ra­tions, medium-sized compa­nies and start-ups, I contri­bute to making orga­ni­sa­tions inspi­ring, produc­tive, inno­va­tive and meaningful.

      About me

      I first found myself fasci­nated by the “systemic” as a very young execu­tive when I was 28 – in the manage­ment team of a mana­ging director who had sought support from the Neuwaldegg consul­ting group with chal­len­ging change-related projects and for the trai­ning of his young managers.

      The Neuwaldegg team accom­pa­nied me on my journey as an inter­na­tional manager for almost 20 years, until 10 years ago, when I “changed sides” and joined Neuwaldegg myself.

      Change, leader­ship and diver­sity remain my focus and passions today in my role of consul­tant, and my view of gender issues is nourished by my personal expe­ri­ence as a female execu­tive. People describe me as someone who strives constantly for clarity and impar­tia­lity, and with a good feeling for what is neces­sary as the next step forwards. My clients appre­ciate my “double compe­tence” as an expe­ri­enced execu­tive and as a consul­tant. What helps me is my nurtu­ring view of orga­niza­tions – and their people. To perfect my skills here, I have also started trai­ning as a psychotherapist.

      It is important to me to feel a sense of diver­sity and diffe­rence and bring them together: 

      • the further deve­lo­p­ment of orga­niza­tions – and the further deve­lo­p­ment of their people; 
      • the chal­lenges in manage­ment consul­ting – and my services as an volun­tary pallia­tive carer; 
      • the incre­asing comple­xity of my tasks – and the amount of time I spend travel­ling to visit my clients;
      • projects that chall­enge my grandchildren
      • and spen­ding the evening ball­room dancing; 

      all of these things make me what I am, bring me down to earth and sharpen my focus on the things that really matter.

      About me

      I am one of those fort­u­nate indi­vi­duals who have found true fulfill­ment in their profes­sion. With a twinkle in my eye, I some­times say: “I can’t do anything else.” Of course, this is an exag­ge­ra­tion – my diverse inte­rests, educa­tion, and (in all modesty) talents tell a diffe­rent story.

      My passion and purpose lie in guiding change and trans­for­ma­tion processes as a systemic orga­niza­tional consul­tant. I create clarity where comple­xity prevails. This clarity rarely emerges through harmony, but often through chal­len­ging processes that ulti­m­ately lead to more sustainable colla­bo­ra­tion and genuine change. The journey can be deman­ding and some­times contra­dicts my natural dispo­si­tion – which is charac­te­rized by joy and lightness.

      What parti­cu­larly fasci­nates me in my work is the balance of oppo­sites: change and consis­tency, serious­ness and joy, tension and rela­xa­tion, humi­lity and confi­dence. This ambi­va­lence allows me to create a posi­tive atmo­sphere even during diffi­cult process phases. My clients appre­ciate that I take chal­lenges seriously while approa­ching my work with humor and joy.

      Thanks to nume­rous trai­ning courses and my curio­sity for every lear­ning oppor­tu­nity, metho­do­lo­gical diver­sity and flexi­bi­lity are my strengths. I work with indi­vi­duals as well as large teams or in complex group processes – always follo­wing the prin­ci­ples of systemic orga­niza­tional consul­ting based on Luhmann’s theory and the Vien­nese systemic school. My reper­toire includes indi­vi­dual coaching, large group faci­li­ta­tion, trans­for­ma­tion processes, and leader­ship deve­lo­p­ment, drawing from approa­ches like Otto Schar­mer’s Theory U, Purpose Driven Orga­niza­tions concepts by Fink and Moeller, and the “Moving Orga­niza­tions” model by Boos and Buzanich-Pöltl.

      Sustaina­bi­lity frames ever­y­thing I do – both profes­sio­nally and perso­nally. To me, sustainable work means effec­ti­ve­ness: changes are imple­mented effec­tively and for the long term, whether at a personal level, within a team, or across an entire orga­niza­tion. It’s not always easy, but it’s worth it.

      As a happy Vien­nese by choice and a globe­trotter at heart, I enjoy the advan­tages of city life – culture, hustle and bustle, and ever­y­thing that comes with it. At the same time, I appre­ciate being able to quickly escape to green spaces where I can clear my mind while jogging or performing impro­vi­sa­tional theater. And although I love my work, there is also life beyond it: espe­ci­ally with wonderful people, sports, and plenty of humor.

      About me

      All stories start some­where. Mine began in Austria. But also in eight other count­ries. Each time, in diffe­rent work contexts: in academia, the public sector, the cultural sector and in non-profit organizations.

      What have I learned from this?
      An ability to adapt to new situa­tions. To curiously explore what rules and expec­ta­tions apply in each situa­tion. To chall­enge my own point of view again and again. Flexi­bi­lity not as an impo­si­tion, but as normality.

      I bring these quali­ties into my work with my clients. I offer obser­va­tions from the outside. I ask ques­tions that lead beyond the expected. I design (reflec­tion, discus­sion, and physical) spaces for crea­ti­vity and encounter. To stimu­late change. Change, which can be trans­lated into the reality of my clients.

      Ever­yone tells stories. Constantly.
      Ever­yone lives stories. Priva­tely, as well as profes­sio­nally. Who doesn’t know the “typical” anec­dotes that are often told at Christmas parties, retreats, company outings, etc.? Why do we do this? Stories bring meaning. They create orien­ta­tion and provide inspi­ra­tion to move on.

      Every story is unique.
      Just as every orga­niza­tion is unique. But if you zoom out, simi­la­ri­ties appear. Every story has a begin­ning and an end. There are always peaks or low points. People assume roles.

      As in orga­niza­tions.
      Here, too, there is a begin­ning (when the company was founded!). But subse­quent decis­ions mayalso, parti­ally, lead to new begin­nings: the decision to intro­duce a new IT infra­struc­ture, or launch a new product, or estab­lish new guide­lines or employ new people. In compa­nies as in stories, indi­vi­duals assume one or more roles. And they need a vision, a bench­mark. As orien­ta­tion. As a mile­stone. As a tempo­rary ending.

      Tempo­r­a­rily. Because we can always continue telling stories. We could always write them differ­ently. In accordance with Hermann Hesse’s saying “There is magic in every begin­ning”, I would like to invite you:
      Let’s rewrite your story together!

        About me

        Being open to new things and expan­ding your personal hori­zons and abili­ties are important factors in both my profes­sional career and my ever­yday life. This is also clear from my varied trai­ning in the hotel and tourism sector through to my move to the adver­ti­sing and commu­ni­ca­tions sector and the nine years I have now spent working at the Neuwaldegg consul­ting group.

        During the conti­nuous discus­sions with our clients, networks and consul­tants, I get the oppor­tu­nity to make my personal remit varied, exci­ting and chal­len­ging. The Holo­cratic approach we take to our work and the high degree of personal respon­si­bi­lity and co-deter­mi­na­tion asso­ciated with it corre­spond to my personal desire for self-realisation.

        It is also inte­res­ting to view these expe­ri­ences in the area of agility and inde­pen­dent work in ever­yday life in terms of the deve­lo­p­ment of my daughter, who is now almost grown up.

          About me

          When I read reports from the “Medi­ter­ra­nean Death Zone” which merchant ships and warships circum­na­vi­gate so as to “over­look” drow­nings, or when I follow German climate policy, which half-hear­tedly decides the things that are already making it impos­sible to stop global warming, then I ask myself whether it isn’t high time to join an aid orga­ni­sa­tion myself rather than stand on the side­lines. What am I still doing here?!

          As my Swabian grand­mo­ther would say, “a cobbler should stick to his last!” Rather than navi­ga­ting a rescue cruiser or pursuing Euro­pean policy, I am a “busi­ness pilot”, however. Consul­ting flows through my veins and it’s what drives me, day and night: whether it’s honing the stra­tegy, the most func­tional orga­ni­sa­tional struc­ture, the most adequate manage­ment model or the further deve­lo­p­ment of the leader­ship: what’s the right answer so that my clients’ compa­nies can stay fit for the future?

          That the profes­sion also has paral­lels with flying and that it’s tradi­tio­nally about profit and growth rather than the greater good and sustainability?

          That’s right! So I stretch myself accor­ding to our Purpose and have made meaning into my field of rese­arch. In our book, we show why meaning is the answer to incre­asing comple­xity, and that a “side effect” of this clear contri­bu­tion by an orga­ni­sa­tion means growth, profit and satis­fied employees for others. Money follows meaning! And if that isn’t a marke­ting fig leaf, but a central guiding star, orga­ni­sa­tions can unfurl the power to shape our future.

          What keeps me at my last are my clients. That’s because they’re intel­li­gent, funny and just as deman­ding as I am. And because they know that consul­ting can’t be a “deli­verable” product.

          Why I ask myself the ques­tion of the “last” at all? Because our second child has just been born and my children have shown me that I don’t have to be a user of the planet, but an enabler for life.

          About me

          More than 20 years ago, I landed in the consul­ting industry almost over­night. And I put my heart and soul into it from day one. I worked in almost all areas in-house: from customer care to orga­ni­sing events, from super­vi­sing multi-module courses to the upkeep of the office, from arran­ging travel to updating contact details. At the same time, I was given the oppor­tu­nity to train as a systemic coach. All this has allowed me to constantly learn. After 15 years though, it was time for a change and a new chall­enge. I got to know comple­tely new struc­tures and processes, but very quickly realised that I missed working directly with people. And after what felt like a “stay abroad”, I’m back again.

          Enga­ging with oneself, with a team or with an entire orga­ni­sa­tion is always an extre­mely exci­ting and educa­tional process. Supporting consul­tants in their task of brin­ging about posi­tive change is my motivation.

          All these steps in my life, the constant lear­ning about myself has made me more reflec­tive and mindful and I try to incor­po­rate this into brin­ging up my two wonderful daugh­ters every day.

            About me

            “I can also be nice, but it won’t achieve anything”, that’s what it says on a poster in my office. You could say that it’s charac­te­ristic of me. My humour might be described as being “black”. Some find it funny, while for others, it’s cynical. But I don’t really want to be ever­y­bo­dy’s darling.

            I’ve been respon­sible for finance and accoun­ting as well as control­ling at Neuwaldegg since 2010. Anyone with a ques­tion about the book­kee­ping, who needs tax infor­ma­tion, or is invoi­cing a project comes to me. As long as you don’t hear from me or see me that much, it gene­rally means I’m doing a good job and I’m running things smoothly for the consul­tants. Well that’s how I see my role. To better under­stand what our consul­tants do, I’ve also trained as a systemic consul­tant and a coach.

            When I’m not crun­ching numbers, I’m a genuine news junkie, and read 3–4 news­pa­pers per day. I like music, cooking and going to the theatre. But I prefer to spend time with my one-year-old daughter, who has already wrapped me around her finger and brings comple­tely new emotions from the rational thinker in no time. It’s certainly going to get interesting!

              About me

              In case you were wonde­ring: at the end of October, my surname “Fürlinger” became “Brunner”.

              I like things to be colourful. And that’s the way lots of people find me to be. I gene­rally try to see things in posi­tively. Brea­king new ground and taking things forward – these are the things that I find fun, and even took me to Africa for a while. At the most recent confe­rence, I realised that I’m a “Giver”. I think that’s about right. People, social cohe­sion, main­tai­ning an envi­ron­ment which is worth living in, and taking respon­si­bi­lity for it are all important to me. Those are the values that I’m trying to pass onto my two children.

              At Neuwaldegg, I find myself excited about our systemic approach, our common purpose, working with Hola­cracy (where things are happe­ning right now!), the conti­nuous further deve­lo­p­ment (curr­ently: my trai­ning as a coach), the combi­na­tion of such a great deal of know-how, energy and diffe­rent strengths. And those are exactly what I want to condense, make tangible and convey authen­ti­cally in my Brand & Commu­ni­ca­tion role, curr­ently with the deve­lo­p­ment of a new brand and this new website. I find inspi­ra­tion & rela­xa­tion in the great outdoors and enjoy jogging and walking along the Danube. I like the curr­ents, the river meadow, stand up paddling and river bathing – all things river.

                About me

                40 years ago, six of us “invented” and founded the Neuwaldegg consul­ting group – we wanted to develop new things with committed people from compa­nies and to make the world a better and more inte­res­ting place through inter­ac­tions between people, orga­ni­sa­tions and tech­no­logy. Looking back, a lot has been achieved, but looking to the future, the chal­lenges haven’t dimi­nished: how do we combine public welfare and indi­vi­dual benefit perspec­tives, how do we balance self-orga­niza­tion with the manage­ment expec­ta­tions of others, and how can social and orga­ni­sa­tional dyna­mics get along with each other? I still enjoy finding new answers, sharing and connec­ting know­ledge with the next gene­ra­tion (and some­times the gene­ra­tion after that), supporting people and expan­ding the poten­tial of orga­ni­sa­tions. Not wanting to stand still, perso­nally and profes­sio­nally, is probably the under­lying credo – but it’s always a good idea to take a brea­ther, to enjoy what’s going on and let your gaze wander, to where and what the next things to discover are.

                About me

                Before I act, I want to understand.

                I dig deep, illu­mi­nate connec­tions, and ask ques­tions — even the uncom­for­table ones. As a friend of the clear word, I speak openly about things that others often only suspect. I have a keen sense of what is going on between the lines — of tensions, unspoken issues, and systemic dynamics.

                What sets me apart is my ability to combine hard and soft factors: Numbers & emotions, struc­ture & rela­ti­onships, stra­tegy & culture. I inte­grate diffe­rent perspec­tives and open spaces where new solu­tions can emerge — even beyond the obvious. I believe that real trans­for­ma­tion happens where clarity, courage and a conscious design of the social space come toge­ther. That’s why I like to try new approa­ches. Often the most effec­tive solu­tion lies not in the tried and tested, but in crea­tive experimentation.

                A current focus of my work is the inte­gra­tion of arti­fi­cial intel­li­gence in orga­niza­tions. AI doesn’t just change processes — it changes colla­bo­ra­tion, leader­ship and decision-making logic. I help orga­niza­tions to consciously manage this change.

                I work for people and orga­niza­tions that want to get the best out of them­selves — whether they are SMEs or corpo­ra­tions, regional or global. Inter­na­tional projects with distri­buted teams are as much a part of my daily work as spar­ring with top executives.

                My aim is to be noti­ce­ably effec­tive.
                Where there is a real desire for change, I am fully committed.

                  About me

                  In my studies and the volun­teer work I do as a youth group leader, it has always been important to me (as a bit of an orga­niza­tion freak) to keep track of things and at the same time spend as much time as possible with other people.
                  Lear­ning new things about these people and what they do makes the work most exci­ting for me.

                  Not only in my jour­na­lism and commu­ni­ca­tion studies at the Univer­sity of Vienna, but also in my coope­ra­tion with the Neuwaldegger:innen I appre­ciate such moments. 
                  Besides admi­nis­tra­tive tasks, data­base main­ten­ance, marke­ting support and other office tasks, I have been able to learn a lot of new things here at Neuwaldegg and I am still curious to learn more.

                    About me

                    I enjoy working with people who want to change orga­ni­sa­tions and bring new things into the world. And I like people who like their inner clown, people who can laugh at themselves.

                    I am thrilled when we succeed in lear­ning toge­ther, when groups come into the flow, and when some­thing comes into being that nobody could have imagined before. In my profes­sion, stan­ding still isn’t an option. That’s why I like to read and write about our topics.

                    Deve­lo­p­ment processes always take place around boun­da­ries. Being able to over­come them requires (mini­mally inva­sive) irri­ta­tions and a careful process so as to create sustaina­bi­lity. Like a clown, as a consul­tant, I don’t want to be perfect, but to make use of mistakes for deve­lo­p­ment. The orga­ni­sa­tions of tomorrow (agile orga­ni­sa­tions) require relia­bi­lity, trust, and in some cases, perfec­tion. Above all, they need the ability to relate at the internal and external levels.

                    I have been an orga­ni­sa­tional consul­tant for more than 35 years. I consider it to be a gift that this occu­pa­tion has found me.

                    About me

                    A look into the work­shop room. You can see confi­dence on peop­le’s faces, where a few hours ago there was still doubt. Many already have an excited sparkle in their eyes. You can feel the opti­mism and pride spre­a­ding through the room. Who would have thought it just a few short weeks ago?

                    Expe­ri­en­cing how orga­ni­sa­tions map a (new) path to a sustainable future and supporting them on that journey is a source of both strength and joy to me. Where did this passion come from?

                    You could say I grew up with systems thin­king. A family discus­sion and debate was part and parcel of long car jour­neys back from our holi­days. This is what nurtured my inte­rest in taking a closer look, in persis­ting with diffi­cult topics and in chan­ging perspec­tives to find crea­tive solutions.

                    And when asked where we should go on holiday next, I have been known to produce a spreadsheet for choo­sing the desti­na­tion. In short, you could say that struc­ture is very important in my life.

                    I draw on all these elements plus expe­ri­ence from a large stra­tegy consul­tancy, from manage­ment work in the family company and as a consul­tant and from the world of sport (in parti­cular ice hockey) in my work with my clients.

                    And why do I do it? A father of two, I am inte­rested in more than just short-term opti­mi­sa­tion. I want to help create a society in which my children can live happily and well.

                      About me

                      Social systems and their patterns emerge in the inter­de­pen­dency between forces of change and inertia. Change cannot exist without conti­nuity, agility cannot exist without stabi­lity. From this posi­tion, an appre­cia­tion emerges for all of the roles in the dyna­mics of an orga­ni­sa­tion and its struc­tures. Ther­e­fore, resis­tance becomes a confi­gurable energy in the occur­rence of change.

                      Profound trans­for­ma­tion only becomes possible by respec­ting that which exists. This has been my personal approach for more than 25 years. Initi­ally, for 10 years with Coopers & Lybrand, Price Water­house Coopers and IBM, and now as a Senior Partner at Neuwaldegg for more than 20 years. Clients say that I combine the best of two worlds. On the one hand, the “clas­sical, analy­tical, tough” side to consul­ting and the expe­ri­ence gained from large-scale and sophisti­cated systems, busi­ness models and structures.

                      And on the other hand, the “psycho­lo­gical, socio­lo­gical, mindful” side of trans­for­ma­tion and leader­ship. I’m grateful for the oppor­tu­nity to continue to live out my passion and to tailor corpo­rate deve­lo­p­ment processes to the clients. I suppose you can tell.

                      About me

                      Assis­ting people and orga­ni­sa­tions in chal­len­ging processes of change and deve­lo­p­ment both asks a lot of me and encou­rages me in my daily work. Every reflected answer to an important ques­tion and every stra­tegy for a solu­tion which is deve­loped as a result leads to personal growth – for my clients as well as for me. The approa­ches and the thin­king never stand still, and certainly not in indi­vi­dual or orga­ni­sa­tional deve­lo­p­ment, but I love my job.

                      As an occu­pa­tional and orga­ni­sa­tional psycho­lo­gist, I work in consul­ting, trai­ning, coaching and rese­arch on the work-related expe­ri­ence and beha­viour of indi­vi­duals and groups in orga­ni­sa­tions. In this respect, the focus is on meaningful control processes, new forms of work, the selec­tion and deve­lo­p­ment of people, and the cultural confi­gu­ra­tion of the company, with the ambi­tious goal of making the best possible use of the exis­ting poten­tial for both indi­vi­duals and the organisation.

                      What inspires me is looking consis­t­ently at the exis­ting resources, as well as the exci­ting ques­tion of how and for what purpose they are put to use. “Streng­thening strengths streng­thens”, this play on words from the field of posi­tive psycho­logy doesn’t just apply to my working life. Since I have had children, I have also realised how helpful this approach is and all the things that are and can be possible if we reflect on the things that we can do well and bring us joy.
