About

With over 12 years of experience in organizational development, strategy, and mergers and acquisitions, I am a hands-on leader and innovator who helps organizations thrive in the digital age. As the Director of Corporate Organization and Change at BayWa r.e. Global, I oversee the design and implementation of organizational structures and processes that enable agility, collaboration, and growth. I was the product owner of a SaaS solution that shows the internal organizational setup and governance documents of Siemens, where I worked for more than eight years in various leadership roles. This solution supports new ways of organizing that focus on skills and capabilities rather than titles and positions. My passion is to empower people and teams to unleash their full potential and create value for customers and society.
