About

With over 25 years of executive-level experience in the Industry and Building Technology sectors, I have successfully navigated diverse areas such as IT-Infrastructure, Data Centers, Building Monitoring Systems (BMS), Elevators & Escalators, AEC Systems, and Serial Timber Construction. As a seasoned AI professional with a Ph.D. thesis focused on AI-Systems for production process planning, I have consistently integrated IT and Digitalization into my work, driving innovation and efficiency. My unwavering passion lies in driving impactful outcomes by harmonizing customer-centric approaches, cutting-edge technology, and social responsibility. Service business has always been a strong focus. Throughout my career, I have seamlessly transitioned between strategic roles (e.g., "Head of...") and operational leadership positions (e.g., "CEO") every 5-8 years, showcasing a proven track record in both strategy development and execution. This dual perspective has equipped me with a holistic understanding of organizational capabilities to implement strategic initiatives.
