Global Leadership and Team Coach@Nspir

I live and work to bring together diverse individuals into these lean, mean racing machines.
Whether it is across companies (suppliers and OEM's), within companies and across silos (hardware, software, engineering, purchasing), or within a group of individuals trying to work together, we waste a lot of time and energy on misunderstandings and conflicts.
From the earliest points in my career, I have been a bridge. I bridged cultures and companies to align on a common understanding, agreed goals and targets so that we could execute them successfully.
I am also a light. I help people see the potential within them and bring it out for the best of the company.
Finally, I am a spark, who gets things going and makes things happen. I might not be a deep expert myself, but I love to learn and am not afraid to engage with different expertises and competences to make decisions and move things forward.
I love to work with teams and companies, for short and long term assignments. I bring experience and tools, but most importantly, an ability to listen and address root cause to bring your teams to world-class performance and execution.More...
