Summary

  • creative analytical conscientious
  • dependable self-initiative
  • reliable self-initiative

With a passion for analytical and creative thinking and a constant drive for innovative solutions. With my many years of international experience and broad industry knowledge, I have successfully supported numerous projects and driven personal development.

I have built and led e-commerce companies, tourism organizations, and social institutions. In doing so, I gained solid experience working with front- and backend systems, their integration, and using new and proprietary technologies to optimize business processes, reduce costs, and maximize revenue. I also have extensive experience in customer support, conducting discussions, and moderating meetings and processes.

I am especially skilled in using social media like Instagram and Twitter and always strive to understand and apply new trends and technologies. Even after several decades of professional experience as a 'veteran,' I remain curious and flexible in adapting to new challenges.

Intercultural competence is particularly important to me. I aim to achieve strong resonance in agile change processes with both heart and mind. I see leadership not in isolation but as connected and systemic, focusing on the individual perceptions of organizations and their tasks. My experience in handling conflicts allows me to develop creative solutions together with teams.

My social commitment is also a key part of my professional and personal identity. Under the motto 'Giving back,' I firmly believe that awareness of a positive impact on others enriches life deeply.

I am convinced that with my broad experience and interdisciplinary thinking, I can make a valuable contribution to your company.
