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.
