As director of an academic exchange program with the US for many years, event manager at an international research institute, manager of a training program for senior scientists and an EMBA for executives, I have extensive experience in the scientific and economic sector.
In my more than 17 years of professional experience in international institutions I developed an awareness for intercultural factors.
I am particularly interested in personal development, facilitating decision-making processes, crisis support, dealing with interpersonal conflicts, career orientation and expat coaching.
