Navigating Life's Complexity: At Home and Beyond

Meet Eric

I am a seasoned C-level change strategist and manager with 15+ years of experience across diverse industries. Having lived in multiple countries, I bring a deep understanding of multicultural dynamics. My background in computer programming, information systems management, Buddhist studies, and a master's degree in change allows me to shift perspectives seamlessly. Informed by complexity thinking, innovation, mass ethnography, and complex facilitation techniques, my approach integrates structured change processes with adaptive decision-making. I excel in early engagement, fair process, and clear communication. As a responsible leader, I have successfully managed organizational change management activities across multiple countries, ensuring project success and employee engagement.

Meet My Family

In 2013, I met my wife, Maria, during a Buddhist retreat in Spain. Sharing a passion for understanding the human experience, we soon traveled to Nepal and India to pursue our Bachelor's degrees in Buddhist Studies. Maria, from Russia, and I, from Canada, immersed ourselves in diverse cultures and philosophies.

After completing our studies in 2016, we moved to Canada with plans to begin a Master's degrees in Buddhism. However, our desire to start a family led us back to Düsseldorf, where I had previously lived from 2007 to 2013. In 2019, we welcomed our twins.

This year, we embraced a new chapter by moving to a small town surrounded by fields, forests, and lakes. We chose this tranquil environment to connect more deeply with nature and provide our children with a nurturing space to grow up, immersed in the outdoors. The peace and slower pace of the countryside resonate with our values and how we wish to live.

I can help you lead complex change.

Turn Complexity Into Opportunity

Whether you're managing large-scale organizational transformations or addressing pressing societal challenges, I provide the guidance needed to develop strategies that confront and embrace complexity head-on.

Lead with Maturity and Wisdom

Complex issues—whether in leadership, organizational culture, or climate action—demand adaptive thinking and informed action. I work with leaders to develop the insights and strategies needed to navigate uncertainty and make effective decisions.

Shape a Sustainable Future

Together, we will build strategies that focus on the root causes of challenges, not superficial fixes. By applying thoughtful, adaptive approaches, we create the conditions necessary for lasting and meaningful impact.
