I’m an interim CIO/CTO and Managing Partner at Thrive8, specializing in stabilizing, realigning, and scaling large-scale transformation programs across business and IT.
Over two decades, I’ve led 60+ transformations across retail, manufacturing, tech, and PE-driven environments — securing delivery, restoring profitability, and embedding sustainable operating models.

My work bridges strategy and execution: I enter at the point where organizations stall, remove blockers, and re-establish governance, pace, and measurable impact. The focus is always on delivery precision and value creation — clear KPIs, strong teams, and accountable execution.

Recent impact examples:

• KME Group (Global S&OP): Stock –40%, € riple-digit M+ cash released, OTIF stabilized
• Kandelium (Solvay carve-out): IT cost –40%, digitalized 60-country supply chain, EBIT gain
• Swisslog (KUKA Group): Rescued € triple-digit M+ program, built SCM 4.0 CoE with 120+ FTE
• Deutsche Telekom: CEE Supply Chain Transformation; € double-digitM savings and agile culture embedded

My portfolio includes complex M&A and carve-out programs, S&OP and ERP/AI transformations, and turnaround missions with full P&L accountability.
Certified in Agility in Leadership™, I integrate adaptive leadership and lean governance to accelerate decision-making, improve resilience, and sustain impact long after go-live.

As a speaker and thought contributor to the World Agility Forum, Peter Drucker Forum, and DDIM Fachgruppe Agile, I advocate for pragmatic, data-driven transformation: where technology enables strategy, and leadership sustains it.
