In everyday life, I am perceived as motivated, ambitious, and conscientious. My situational and collaborative leadership style is based on clear and open communication that builds trust and allows for creativity. I see myself as an active part of the team, working together to tackle challenges and focusing on solutions. For me, modern leadership means actively promoting and challenging others, as well as establishing clear responsibilities and processes that enable employees to act independently and entrepreneurially. I have a proven track record of building and scaling companies by establishing efficient structures and agile working methods that support growth and adaptability. My experience in large global organizations and start-ups allows me to combine different approaches and best practices. As a mentor, sparring partner, and coach, I enjoy supporting employees in realizing their full potential. My ability to make a vision tangible has significantly contributed to organizations acting purposefully and efficiently in previous positions. Through motivating communication and continuous monitoring of KPIs, I enable quick successes that allow the organization to respond positively to change and foster a strong sense of community. I celebrate successes together with the team and recognize the contributions of each individual to maintain high motivation. I think strategically yet realistically, am not afraid to make decisions, and can zoom in on details while keeping an overview to assess feasibility. In doing so, I consider different perspectives and integrate them into the decision-making process to achieve a comprehensive understanding. My values are based on HONESTY, RESPECT, OPENNESS, and DIVERSITY. I strive to create an environment where diversity is seen as a strength.
