I'm a German-English organizational psychologist, consultant, executive coach, and facilitator with 15 years of experience supporting founders, leadership teams, and organizations navigating growth, change, and complexity. My work sits at the intersection of psychology, business, and communication. I help founders, executives, and organizations bring clarity to complex ideas, strengthen leadership, improve communication, and navigate change. Depending on the project, clients hire me for executive coaching, organizational consulting, strategic writing, workshop facilitation, leadership communication, or founder support. What connects all of my work is a combination of analytical thinking, practical business experience, and a deep understanding of people. Before starting my own business, I spent six years in consulting and organizational development, supporting leadership teams, change initiatives, onboarding, communication, and cross-functional collaboration. Since becoming independent, I've worked with founders, consultants, coaches, and organizations ranging from early-stage businesses to global companies. Throughout my career, I've contributed to projects connected to organizations including Roche, Amazon, Continental, ING, Olympus, and Osram, supporting leadership development, organizational change, workshop facilitation, communication, and people-related initiatives. Writing has become an important part of my work alongside consulting. I've ghostwritten eight books and written or edited websites, articles, thought leadership content, learning materials, and executive communications. Whether I'm writing from scratch or refining existing content, my focus is on translating complex ideas into clear, authentic language while preserving my client's voice. Beyond strategy, I enjoy helping founders turn ideas into action. Over the years, I've supported projects involving research, stakeholder interviews, executive communications, project coordination, and quality assurance. I like bringing structure to complex projects, asking the right questions, and helping teams move work forward. Some of the ways I support clients include: • Executive & Founder Coaching • Organizational Consulting • Strategic Writing & Ghostwriting • Workshop Design & Facilitation • Leadership Communication • Research & Stakeholder Interviews • Organizational Development & Change • German-English Consulting, Editing & Communication Clients often describe me as calm, thoughtful, reliable, and easy to work with. I combine strategic thinking with a hands-on approach and enjoy becoming a trusted partner who helps people move projects forward, whether through coaching, consulting, communication, or thoughtful execution. If you're looking for someone who combines psychological expertise with business experience, clear communication, and a practical, collaborative approach, I'd be happy to hear more about your project. Cheers, Katrin

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.

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.
