Leadership Strategist & Counselor. Since 2005. [beginner's mind, in start-up mode] Distinctive Leadership Manifesto
[Outgrow Yourself, Inspire the World!] I would like us to stop making sense. I would like us to make a difference finally: I. I would like us to grow courageously independent and perfect our individual talents and vision. I would like us to take ourselves seriously - but not all-too important. I would like us to become a spark - and leave a mark. II. I would like us to value brilliance over instant gratification. I would like us to curiously question everything - instead of knowing all the answers. I would like us to long for knowledge in abundance. I would like us to make ourselves truly redundant. III. I would like us to grow relevant. I would like us to stop surfing every fad we stumble upon. I would like us to stop looking for distractions, but to create wise solutions. I would like us to intuitively live Distinctive Leadership: outgrow ourselves and inspire the world - for the good, benefit, and wealth of our surroundings and ourselves; as individual, brand, and business.

Since October 2011 Thomas, my partner at Craft&Vision, and I have the privilege to write a weekly online column for German Wirtschaftswoche, a weekly business & management magazine.
