For leadership, HR, people and organisational development
When change needs to be learned, not just implemented – over months, not in a single workshop.
- Change processes with learning loops
- Retreats
- Conflict work

When things stall,
tilt & crack.
Something is already moving.
Let's find out where.
I work with organisations, educational institutions and people with a project in mind – when something needs to move and the right form is still missing. Because change needs experience: the new has to be lived, not just thought through.
Where there's helplessness, anger and frustration – or curiosity – that's where my work begins.
Why people call me
Typical situations. In three words.
It stalls.
- LearningThe curriculum is covered. The curiosity isn't.
- ConferencesTwelve talks. One shared thought: when's the break?
It tilts.
- Team conflictPolite in the meeting. Sharp in the corridor.
- RestructuringThe structure is new. The people aren't yet.
It cracks.
- Handing overThe old still holds. The next generation needs something new.
- FarewellsThose who left are missed. So, a little, are those who stayed.
Any AI can write a strategy paper. What's stuck between people, it can't.

The garden
It's all here. It just needs picking or planting.
I don't only pick the fruit. I tend the whole garden.
Ripe nowWith a date. Just join.
Ready to pickBookable any time.
Ready to plantNeeds a place and hosts.
RipeningNot there yet.
Gone wild & wiltedOver, overlooked or never bloomed.
Some things are over, or will never bloom. I acknowledge that. And some things have to be composted before something new can grow.
A place, a group, an occasion? Then something can be planted here.
Tell me what's there → How I work
First a detective. Then a gatherer.
Where things stall, there are traces. And usually what's needed is already lying there too. I gather it up and put it together anew.
I also go into the overgrown corners, to what has wilted and been overlooked. There is something precious in decay, too.
A gatherer needs an abundant garden. Into the basket goes what is ripe right now.
I work with strong feelings: grief, anger, fear, shame, exhaustion. Not despite them, but with them. Where they find a place, they turn into insight and strength.
Often the most difficult person in the team carries the most important information.
The truly unfinished
Not sure what exactly yet? Good. Then the format grows out of the need, not the other way round.
1
Share a hunch
20 minutes, free of charge. Tell me what needs to move. I listen until the unspoken becomes audible.
2
Thinking workshop
Three to four hours of exploring together, from the other side as well. Result: two or three format sketches with outline, setting and costs.
3
Design & walk the path
An experience space that fits exactly this situation, carried out together or with your own team. Experimental, playful, with head, heart and body.
Exploring and developing isn't groundwork. It's the work.
Tell me about the unfinished → From the case files
Real cases. Strangely familiar patterns.
Case 01 · Foundationhanded over
When the founder steps back
Finding: The founder is withdrawing. A new team is to take on responsibility.
Trace: The organisation is strongly shaped by its founder. Structures, roles and decision paths have yet to emerge.
Turn: Several months of facilitation. Roles become visible, negotiated and tested. One person's imprint becomes shared responsibility.
Case 02 · Start-upwell ended
A good ending is a result too
Finding: A founding team at a crossroads. Each has a different picture of the future.
Trace: Unspoken tensions. The shared direction gets lost.
Turn: Difficult things are said openly, without blame. Collaboration and separation are shaped constructively.
Case 03 · Training programmeopened
Understanding conflict rather than solving it
Finding: Trainee counsellors should not just know about conflict, but experience it.
Trace: Behind every position lie needs. And voices that contradict each other.
Turn: Process Work and Deep Democracy in practice. Conflict becomes graspable as a layered process.
Three more cases
Case 04 · Conferenceexperienced
A conference you experience
Finding: 300 people, an international annual conference, a full programme.
Trace: Wanted: space for shared experience, reflection and collaboration.
Turn: Two workshops and an embodied closing for everyone. Teams leave with tools for tension they can use straight away.
Case 05 · Housing projectsin motion
Living together, arguing together
Finding: People want to live and build together – with very different ideas of how.
Trace: Tension over decisions, resources, responsibility and everyday life together.
Turn: Facilitation across several project phases. Conflicts are addressed early instead of hardening. More cohesion.
Case 06 · Common goodsorted
When the informal becomes visible
Finding: A volunteer team that has grown over many years. Now it wants clear structures.
Trace: Clear roles bring hidden tensions and structural gaps to the surface.
Turn: Roles and decisions are renegotiated. The team learns to tell what needs understanding from what needs a different structure.
All cases are real and anonymised. Any resemblance to your own team is, nonetheless, no coincidence.

Every brief was different. The deeper question never was.
Who I work with
Some spaces need more than one person.
Larger changes I accompany in tandem or in a small team, for example with Michael Nußbaumer (supervision), Tomislav Gjerkes (Resilience Lab), Luise Ogrisek (Dragon Dreaming), Kateřina Černá Grofová (Hosting Tears) and Dialog Akademie. If it's not something I can do, I'll gladly recommend someone from this network.
Ulrike Reimann · Process facilitator & impact designer
I'm not the last hope. More like the first to ask what hopelessness knows.
Not sure what you need yet? A good place to start.
A problem, an idea, or just a feeling that something could be different – telling me about it is enough. Here when it wobbles. Human all the way through.
Write to me
Two or three sentences are enough. I usually reply the same or the next day.
