The approach for altitude
and growth

Co-pilot and catalyst in times of change
Leadership in times of change requires more than short-term strategies and task lists.
It needs a narrative that carries and provides orientation – inward and outward.
What does long-term growth look like?
Where do we stand today, and what stance is moving us forward?
Curious Altitudes stands for a new kind of leadership whether it's about you, your organization, or the wider societal context.
Narrative Leadership begins with a clear story and the question: How is change being told? By you. In your team. In your organization.
What is it really about? Where is there a lack of clarity? What dynamics and unspoken stories shape decisions? What is the primary goal we are working towards?
I accompany people as a co-pilot through phases of change.
With systemic depth, psychodynamic sensitivity, and two decades of experience in brand and leadership work.
Together, we look at what is at work beneath the surface and bring language, structure, and direction to what is only just beginning to take shape.
This is not a standard method. It is a stance and a practical framework to make change tangible, with a narrative that connects.

It's okay to be lost when everything is chaotic
We are often caught off guard by change especially in the places where we feel most secure.
In our roles. In our plans. In everyday life.
In the story we tell ourselves about who we are.
Suddenly, there’s this feeling:
Nothing feels right. Nothing fits anymore.
Who am I when all of this falls away?
What does growth even look like then?
It’s OK. That sentence became an anchor when everything around me started to slip.
It allowed me to stop, look honestly – and right there, in the middle of the mess, find a new direction.
First, there was a medical diagnosis that turned everything upside down.
Then came the farewell to a leadership role that had shaped my sense of self for years.
None of it planned. None of it chosen.
What remained was not my full calendar or my title but one question:
What carries me when everything begins to shake and change?
"It’s OK" became a mindset.
It’s OK not to have the answer. To feel uncertain.
A moment of honest pause – and an invitation to look closer. At what’s really off. In me. In my system. In what I lead, support, or shape.
Because change begins with an honest check-in.
With the courage to say: I do not know what comes next. I am tired. I feel uncertain.
I am not okay and that is okay.
Today, I support people, teams, and organizations right where they are in the zigzag, not along a perfect line.
I am not here to optimize. I am here to create meaning.
This is where real transformation begins.
Today I accompany people, teams and organizations exactly there: in the zigzag, not in the perfect line. I am not an optimizer, but a creator of meaning. This is the starting point for real transformation.
It’s okay.
This mindset is more than just a phrase – it’s often the first step. Toward greater clarity. Toward a narrative that truly holds, especially when nothing feels certain.

Systems-psychodynamic coaching
I'm a certified INSEAD executive coach and use a profound approach. Systemic thinking and psychodynamic training mean we don't just look at what you do, but at what's happening underneath and why.
Change is rarely just a process.
Often, it’s a web of expectations, role dynamics, tensions, and old patterns. Sometimes, something gets in the way that has no name. That’s exactly where I come in.
My work creates space for clarity.
A space where patterns become visible, where language emerges for what’s been left unsaid. Where inner unrest turns into direction – and the compass becomes a narrative. A meaningful story that feels true to you.

The Curious Methodology
My core values and guiding principles are curiosity and altitude.
I combine them with experience and apply them through a holistic methodology shaped by years in executive leadership, in coaching processes, and in working with teams, systems, strategies, brands, and identity.
It helps you find a new sense of orientation. First on the inside. Then on the outside.
Three levels provide direction:
Narrative depth: What works in me? What sustains me? What role expectations do I have?
Narrative resonance: How do I come across to the outside world? What is received? What role expectations am I expected to fulfill?
Narrative height: Where is the journey going? What is my compass for the future? What roles do I want to take on in the future?
Because change never follows a straight line, we work with six core movements within your narrative.
Locate. Own. Translate. Contain. Reframe. Navigate.
All keywords that are anchor points in the process and create order without simplifying.
This is not a toolbox.
It is a reflective framework and a new language for direction.
Its strength lies in what it reveals.
