Corporate Vision working with clients, Andrea acts as a sparring partner. She asks the tough questions, sparks new thinking, challenges perspectives, and supports clients in finding their own answers. This way, change is not imposed from the outside but grows from within the organisation, which is exactly why it lasts. When undertaking projects, Andrea likes to surprise clients with unconventional approaches that open up new perspectives and break through stuck patterns. Every project becomes a co-creation process, in which Andrea and her client work together to figure out what is truly needed on a professional, strategic, and cultural level. Where many training providers merely define what should change, Andrea goes the extra mile: exploring why things have been the way they are, and what it takes to make new approaches stick in the long-term. “My three core values are trust, joy, and freedom – and they’re deeply woven into my work,” Andrea explained. “These values have always been a part of me. Maybe unconsciously in the past, but today I know they are keeping a consistent thread throughout everything I do.” For Andrea, trust starts with honesty. She believes that when people speak openly with each other – even about difficult topics – they can create space for truly effective solutions. This ethos is especially important in coaching and transformation processes, because only when participants are willing to surface the real issues can they start to work through them. Whilst joy may appear to be a “soft” value, Andrea upholds it as a crucial driver of success. “I firmly believe that we can only reach our full potential when we enjoy what we do,” she stated. “This belief shapes all of my programmes: learning should feel light, spark curiosity, and generate energy – even when we are dealing with complex topics like AI or transformation.” And finally, freedom allows room for possibility, for Andrea as much as for her clients. It allows individuals to make their own decisions, try out new paths, and break away from routines that no longer benefit their life. This is reflected entirely in Andrea’s approach: creating spaces where participants can approach topics with honesty, learn with joy, and act with autonomy. Furthermore, the joy in learning has been scientifically researched as a crucial neurological driver for effective learning which truly helps individuals to retain information. This values driven approach is especially relevant in today’s climate. From Andrea’s perspective, the training and coaching landscape is at a turning point.

She hails from the world of marketing, tech, and digital business, and after many years of working handson in projects, knows exactly what transformation feels like in reality, “with all its contradictions, friction, uncertainties, and everything else that comes with it.” Andrea combines this experience with systemic coaching and a steadfast belief that transformation is not a toolset that can simply be implemented; it is a process that moves people. To support this kind of transformation, Andrea made a conscious choice not to build a traditional in-house team. Her reasoning is simple: every project is unique, and so are the skills it takes to deliver real impact. Instead, she collaborates with a network of experts that she brings in based on the topic and goals being worked toward. This allows her to assemble exactly the right amount of people for each project, whether that is AI strategy, communication, organisational development, or change management. This flexible approach gives Andrea a high degree of freedom and gives her clients solutions that truly fit their needs. No one receives a one-size-fits-all package. Instead, a dedicated project team is built around the specific challenge, coming together for the task and dissolving once the work is done. In
