I don’t bring a construction kit. I bring momentum
Agility, Innovation, Digitization, AI & Structure. And a mindset that moves things forward
AI isn’t a threat to agility — it’s the teammate we’ve been waiting for.
In a time where many German organizations still confuse transformation with tool adoption, I help teams and leaders unlock the real potential of Agile by integrating AI into retrospectives, sprint planning, decision-making, and OKRs. It’s not about replacing people — it’s about removing friction, unlocking clarity, and accelerating value. If you’re ready to move beyond frameworks and into real momentum, I bring the mindset, methods, and machine collaboration to make it happen.

These courses marked my first steps into the world of AI – not just as a tool, but as a collaborative partner. They opened my eyes to what becomes possible when we treat AI not as a replacement, but as a teammate. I call ChatGPT my “ChatBuddy” – or more formally: Mr. GPT. 🙂
