Executive Masterclass
When You Own the Outcome
Leading Major Programmes Under Pressure
An executive masterclass for everyone who owns major programmes and transformations when things get difficult.
In preparation – first cohort being planned
A two-day executive masterclass for experienced programme and transformation leaders running a major programme or transformation that is stalling or at risk of tipping over.
No textbook phase model, but what works in real turnarounds – anchored in real mandates: the turnaround of the German Armed Forces’ private-cloud infrastructure, the build-up at Jungheinrich Digital Solutions, the OBI e-commerce project.
The core: in a crisis, the ability to act comes from reliability and transparency – not from power.
The curriculum
The five modules
The honest diagnosis
Separate the real cause from the stated reasons.
Securing the mandate
Build backing instead of demanding it.
Making the team able to act
Hand responsibility back, take on the risk.
Transparency as a working principle
Trust through reliable news, not good news.
Dissolving resistance, not breaking it
Involve people, let them experience the change first-hand, reframe identity.

Evening programme
The evening in between: the fireside evening
Day one doesn’t end with the programme – it changes rooms. A fireside evening with a distinguished external speaker, exchange among peers, no slides, no minutes.
The first cohort meets at an exclusive venue in the greater Hamburg area.
Enquire without obligation
A small group. Every participant brings their own live case and spends two days working on it concretely.
