I'm a bilingual German-English organizational psychologist, executive coach, facilitator, and leadership advisor with more than 15 years of experience supporting founders, leadership teams, and organizations navigating growth, complexity, change, and transformation. Alongside organizational and consulting work, I bring extensive experience supporting founders, CEOs, and senior leaders operating in high-growth and high-complexity environments.

My background spans consulting, facilitation, executive support, and leadership development across both corporate and entrepreneurial environments. Prior to and alongside my independent work, I spent six years in consulting and organizational development roles, supporting change initiatives, leadership teams, and cross-functional collaboration. Over the years, I have worked with organizations and stakeholders connected to companies such as Roche, Amazon, Continental, ING, Olympus, and Osram, supporting projects related to leadership, communication, organizational development, workshop facilitation, onboarding and people-related processes, and collaboration across teams and functions. My work often involves: • Executive & Founder Coaching • Stakeholder Interviews & Facilitation • Leadership & Executive Communication • Organizational Development • Change & Transformation • Workshop Design & Facilitation • German-English Consulting I'm known for combining calm communication, strategic thinking, and strong interpersonal skills with the ability to quickly understand complex situations and build trust with senior stakeholders across international environments. Feel free to send me a message or book a consultation. A short conversation is often the fastest way to see whether there's a good fit and how I might be able to help.

Running your own business means carrying things most people never see. Too many decisions. Not enough clarity. A partnership that's harder than it used to be. The sense that you're working hard but not actually moving. I work with founders, solopreneurs, and entrepreneurs at exactly those moments — when something has stalled and the old approaches aren't getting it unstuck. Over 30 years I've been a founder, a team leader, and a builder. I became a coach because I kept finding myself in these conversations anyway — the hard decisions, the partnership tensions, the moments where someone capable is stuck and needs a clear-eyed person to think with. I'm ICF PCC-certified with over 500 coaching sessions behind me. What I help with: Clarity and focus — when you have too much on your plate and nothing is moving, the problem usually isn't effort, it's knowing what actually matters right now. We cut through the noise and commit to what's next. Difficult decisions — the calls you've been avoiding. Hiring, firing, pivoting, walking away. We work through them properly instead of letting them sit. Partnerships and working relationships — some of the hardest work in business happens between people. A co-founder whose vision has diverged, a partner you need to exit cleanly, a collaboration that's drifted. I work with you alone or with both parties present, to find a way forward — repairing it or ending it with dignity. Momentum and follow-through — when you keep starting and stopping, or know what to do but aren't doing it, we build the structure and honest accountability that makes follow-through natural rather than forced. You might be a good fit if: You're building something real and feeling stuck, alone in the decision-making, or stretched too thin You keep avoiding a decision or a conversation that you know needs to happen A key working relationship has shifted and you can't see the way through it alone You're capable and experienced — but something has stalled, and you know it isn't a skills problem You want honest challenge as well as support — a coach who asks the hard questions, not just an encouraging voice How I work: Sessions are typically online, weekly or bi-weekly. I bring challenge as well as support — the goal is real movement, not just a good conversation. I ask questions that move the spotlight from symptoms to causes. "Peter's coaching style is a nice balance of support and challenge. He is empathetic but at the same time doesn't shirk the opportunity to ask the hard questions." — Des Golden First step: a no-obligation 30 or 60-minute consultation to find out if this is the right fit.

"If you need someone to help you scale your operations, you must speak with Benjamin." "The work he performed is unbelievable." "He's obsessed with providing value, delivered way beyond our expectations." "Ben is a superstar." "Benjamin is an absolute game changer!" (LinkedIn) "Exceptional is an understatement." **************** You built the business. Now it's running you. You've grown past 20, 30, maybe 50 people — but you're still the one holding operations together. Every decision flows through you. You're working in the business instead of on it. Margins should be better for the revenue you're doing, but you can't figure out where the leakage is while you're firefighting daily. I'm a fractional COO for founder-led service businesses. I've done this from both sides — I scaled my own company to €5M+ in revenue, and I've worked with 70+ clients across the US, Europe, and the Middle East on exactly this problem. Here's what I typically help with: - Building the management operating system so you're not the bottleneck for every decision - Restructuring operations to fix margin leakage - Hiring, team structure, and getting the right people into the right roles - Designing processes and SOPs that actually get followed - Helping you delegate effectively so you can focus on strategy and growth I'm not a slide deck consultant. I embed in your business and operate alongside your team. If you're a founder running a service business and you know operations is the thing holding you back let's talk.

Complex businesses are systematically undervalued when they raise capital or pursue an exit, because standard frameworks cannot see what actually drives their value. I close that gap by doing two things most advisors cannot. I use first principles thinking to uncover that unseen value, and narrative engineering to illustrate it so that investors and acquirers not only understand but also find compelling enough to close deals at a premium. I am a C-Level Consultant and Executive Coach with 25 years of experience across product development at Ford Motor Company and Robert Bosch GmbH, consulting strategy at Roland Berger and as an independent advisor for 15+ global companies in every major continent. Since 2020, I advised startups in raising $12M in seed funding and closing $400M+ in acquisition deals. I have a 100% record in exceeding short term business goals as a fractional CFO, COO or CMO for companies. I design clarity from ambiguity. My current roles: General Partner, Evolvia: A venture capital syndicate firm. Creator, Bulletproof Pitch: Coaching for pitch decks, PPMs, and fund theses. Board Member, Shala Cooperative: A platform for freelance collaboration. Strategy Advisor, Ulysses Holdings: Advisory for deal‑origination systems. Visionary Lead, Profound Human: In‑person projects to unlock human potential. Experience and track record 5 ventures founded/invested: 1 successful exit 10 years in strategy consulting 15 years in systems engineering and organizational design 20+ companies and 50+ founders advised 100+ pitch decks built or reviewed: over $400M in deals closed 200+ articles on business, technology, and the human psyche Beyond boardrooms and term sheets, I’ve channeled creativity into human‑centered projects; from festivals in Berlin and a retreat in Latin America to a cooperative in Colorado, a restaurant pop‑up in Detroit, and an after‑school program in South Africa.

As a Social Scientist with a Magister Degree in Altamerikanistik (e.g., Anthropology), my professional journey has been a blend of academic exploration and creative endeavors. In addition to engaging in various artistic projects, I have delved into intriguing research on plant perception, conducted in the scenic landscapes of Switzerland. My career reflects a versatile skill set that spans research, design, and customer service. I have consistently demonstrated my capacity to adapt, take on responsibility, and foster positive relationships with colleagues across all levels. In my previous role, my employer commended my work ethic, a testament to my dedication and performance. I am eager to bring the same level of commitment and excellence to the roles I will be undertaking. Throughout my career, I have gathered diverse experiences that have honed my skills and expanded my capabilities. For instance, I have served as a content creator for Fanatee on Upwork Lanes, where I crafted engaging content in German to captivate audiences. I have also engaged in collaborative text editing for UK University UGC Platform Research, as well as research at UZH in Switzerland, showcasing my ability to work effectively in interdisciplinary teams. Furthermore, my proficiency in narrative construction led me to create plots for games and quests, adding layers of depth and intrigue to interactive experiences. Additionally, my role as a German Editor for AI Written Texts in the health-care sector allowed me to ensure accuracy and clarity in technical content, highlighting my attention to detail and subject matter expertise. As a creative content writer for word games targeting German-speaking audiences, I combined linguistic finesse with creative flair to deliver captivating content, as well as trained AI writing prompts and suitable answers for a ChatBot. Applying SEO I created headlines and snippets for a famous German Newspaper. Moreover, I leveraged my analytical skills in tasks such as Gedichtinterpretation (Poem Interpretation), where I delved into the nuances of literary works to extract meaning and convey interpretation effectively. Additionally, my experience in crafting well-researched responses on health and fitness topics as a Quora writer underscored my ability to communicate complex information clearly and concisely. Furthermore, my expertise extended to providing scientific plant descriptions for platforms like Picture This, where I combined my research background with a knack for clear and concise communication to enhance user experiences and knowledge.
