Stefan has led large-scale programmes across Europe and beyond — building high-performing teams, chasing excellence and delivering results in environments where most initiatives stall. That experience is what drives him. He doesn't just deploy AI tools. He builds the foundation that makes deployment succeed. As founder of Wassching, a process engineering firm specialised in AI-readiness, he identifies what's actually blocking transformation — the hidden process variants, the fragmented data, the workflows nobody mapped — and redesigns them before a single agent goes live. The result: organisations that don't just adopt AI, but work measurably differently because of it. Over 25 years across Europe: built Pegasystems' consulting practice from €2M to €25M with 250+ senior consultants. Led post-merger integration of Merkle EMEA across London and Barcelona. Guided three consulting organisations through delivery excellence and growth — two successfully sold to PE. His 30-60-90 approach is concrete by design: → 30 days: diagnosis complete, data governance gaps mapped, first quick wins in motion → 60 days: first AI workflow live in production, board-ready business case delivered → 90 days: 20–40% efficiency gains measurable, organisation working demonstrably differently Clients don't get a handoff. They get a new way of working. Available for interim CDO mandates. Entry via 3-week Process Landscape Assessment — concrete deliverables, no long-term commitment required upfront.
Founder of Wassching. The foundation layer for AI-ready organisations. We solve the problem that silently kills 95% of AI investment: broken processes and ungoverned data. We don't consult. We engineer. Using advanced process mining, we extract the data-backed truth of how organisations actually work, then systematically rebuild that landscape into something clean, coherent, and ready for what comes next. Our methodology, Reveal, Reframe, Redesign, Run and Radiate, typically reduces process landscapes from 50 to 100+ variants to 5 to 10 optimised workflows, delivering 40%+ efficiency gains within 6 months. Three pillars: Deep Process Intelligence & Rationalisation, Data Capability & Governance, and Human-Centred Organisational Transformation. We work with a select set of partners, including Cost Savings & Evidant. Wassching is also the foundation within LABS1100, the alliance that takes it all the way to a way of working that is measurably different. Foundation first. Always.
I redesign how the work actually gets done before a single agent runs: from role to capability, from silo to mixed team of people and agents. Because AI isn't won with the best models, but with the best foundation. My part, through Wassching, is that foundation and redesign. LABS1100 delivers impact, not recommendations. Work. Reimagined.
Led the post-merger integration of Merkle's European MarTech operation across London and Barcelona. Elevated client delivery standards across the portfolio — ensuring enterprise clients received consistent, high-quality outcomes regardless of the organizational transition happening behind the scenes. That client-first focus became the engine for new business development across EMEA. Simultaneously unified two teams into one high-performing organization. Built the internal structure, sharpened execution, and created an environment where people wanted to perform — because they could see it reflected in client results. The combination of client excellence and operational cohesion is where I deliver the most value.
Drove enterprise software implementations across Europe's most demanding industries — insurance in London and Paris, manufacturing in Switzerland, telecom in Rome and Amsterdam, government and banking across the region. Every engagement: complex stakeholder landscapes, high expectations, tight timelines. Built and led high-performing delivery teams that consistently turned challenging implementations into successful client partnerships. Developed an expert services capability that became Pegasystems' go-to resource for accelerating enterprise adoption across the region. What I learned here: the difference between a stalled implementation and a successful one is almost never technical. It's organizational. Reading the environment, aligning the right people, and creating momentum — that's what makes enterprise delivery work.
