We love to share our knowledge and expertise. At management conferences, congresses, association meetings or on your own premises. We provide inspiration for the future-proof design of leadership and corporate culture as well as in other pivotal areas such as brand strategy and employer attractiveness.

Getting to the heart of corporate identities and developing brand mission statements that really hit the mark is what she does best. She designs corporate brands with a systemic view of organisations and an awareness of the relationship between internal culture and external image. Helping businesses create new connections and discover new-found confidence in individual performance gives her great satisfaction.

Daniel Bischoff's primary objective is to understand where a company stands, pinpoint its exact needs and chart a focussed path forward. He has a talent for revealing relevant and previously hidden issues and integrating them into the process. Opening people's eyes to the direction, based on values, a company’s journey might take using its specific strengths and positioning is his forte. He loves being the protagonist who sets brand and corporate development in motion.

We love sharing our insights.

Our books and games are a great way to get involved. They show how our strategic approaches can be put into practice.
