Too many topics. Not enough clarity.

New challenges arise every day, decisions are left unresolved, and everything seems equally important. Where do we go from here?

I help restore clarity and set priorities.

Do you handle everything?

When decisions, knowledge, and responsibility rest with just a few people, growth and succession become difficult.

I help build structures that foster independence.

The company is growing. The stress is growing along with it.

As revenue grows, complexity, coordination, and friction increase faster than the company itself.

I help organize growth instead of letting chaos grow alongside it.

AI, digitalization, change—but what does that actually mean?

New topics often raise more questions than they provide answers. Technology alone rarely solves the actual problem.

I help bring people, processes, and implementation together.

Why I Understand What Consultants Often Don't

I've always been more drawn to practice than theory. As a business lawyer, I advised and represented almost exclusively small and medium-sized businesses in court, and worked on restructurings, insolvency administration, and on supervisory boards.


Eventually, it became increasingly clear: the most interesting questions arise in discussions with management and teams, and through collaborative work on forward-looking projects—both strategic and operational. The legal profession isn't the right fit for that.


I've always been where people, processes, business, technology, and law intersect. And that's exactly where I work today.


For over 15 years, I have been advising companies, CEOs, and academic institutions on organization, digitalization, marketing & sales, and human resources.


Up to 80% of my services are eligible for government funding; upon request, you'll receive a free funding assessment. The effort required to apply for funding is minimal and will be supported by me and the Alchimedus back office.

Management Consulting – In good times, in tough times, and in everything in between.

At some point, many SME business owners and managers realize the same thing: what’s missing is someone who asks the right questions and then sticks with it.

I’m a fully qualified lawyer; I’ve worked as a business lawyer for small and medium-sized enterprises, started my own company, managed international sales, and served on a supervisory board. These experiences don’t make me a one-size-fits-all consultant. They make me someone who knows what a difficult decision feels like when you’re in the thick of it yourself.
Today, I advise SME management teams on growth and organization: sales, marketing, leadership, and team development. And on AI—not as a technological issue, but as a matter of culture, leadership, and responsibility.

be nice. The name is no coincidence.

The issues of our time are: sales that no longer work the way they used to. A team that has changed. And AI all around.

What’s missing in these moments isn’t a new tool or another workshop. It’s someone who helps sort out what’s really important—and who’s willing to say uncomfortable things in the process.
My work focuses on actionable solutions that work in everyday business and deliver results. Up to 80% of my work is government-funded; I’ll provide you with the details and, together with my team, assist you with the application process.

As part of the Alchimedus consultant network, I collaborate as needed with a broad network of experts who can be brought in when necessary—for example, when implementing software solutions, as is often the case with projects aimed at sustainable digital transformation in SMEs.

Please ask me during our initial conversation where the name be nice comes from – there’s a story behind it.
