I coach and consult leaders in research – from early career to directors.
Decades of experience in science leadership and strategic communication, combined with a profound understanding of modern research institution challenges.
I led international science communication teams for many years. The decisions came out better and the work was more creative.
Together with the European community, I co-created a common purpose. This focal point changed everything. It formed a team from individuals.
I learned the most from the twists and turns along my career.
I keep learning ever more about communication. It is much more than exchanging facts. One listens and builds relationships.
I encourage scientific leaders to contribute to societal discourse with drive, competence and clear messages.
What bothers you? What do you want to change?
Be clear on your why

Science and society think together at eye level. Together, they shape a future worth living in.
Why science leaders choose to work with me.

You tackle your personal challenges before you burn out
You become an authentic, visionary leader
