My experience
I possess wide experience in business and project advice in the intercultural context as well as experience in the formation and management of business enterprises.
Following my study of business administration (Betriebswirtschaft) and an additional course in agricultural development at the Technical University, Berlin, I worked in various areas of development cooperation between 1983 and 1999, largely for the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Technische Zusammenarbeit (GTZ) GmbH – (the German Agency for Technical Cooperation). During this time, I gained varied experience in advisory, moderation and training services, both in German and Spanish. I spent a total of eight years on three consulting assignments in Honduras, with intermittent stays in Germany. In addition, I set up two businesses with partners: a ballet school in Frankfurt/Main (‘Dance Project’ with Malaika Kusumi) in 1986 and a tour operator in Honduras (‘La Moskitia Ecoaventuras’ with Jorge Salaverri) in 1992.
My areas of work range from the promotion of co-operatives, to rural development, institutional development, food and nutritional security and gender.
My philosophy
The more I take all those persons seriously, with whom I am involved - whether they are clients, partners, assistants, suppliers or others - with their various interests and needs, integrating those interests and needs into my problem-solving strategies, the better and more sustainable my results.
The greater the benefit to be expected from a strategy and the greater the number of persons who benefit from, and therefore make an enthusiastic contribution to a strategy, the easier it is to achieve one’s aims.
My work should contribute to a stable balance between professional and social responsibility and the private enjoyment of life.
Therefore, I place particular value on good preparation and consider together with my clients what aims should be achieved through our cooperation. My offer is always tailor-made and result-oriented.
You will find in me your partner for the efficient achievement of your objectives, combined with optimum communication.
