PROJECT MANAGEMENT
We've never tried this before,
so it's definitely be fine.
Pippi Langstrumpf

Are you planning a project and looking for strategic support? Would you like to establish process support for the successful implementation of your project? Would you like a space to reflect on roles, competencies and responsibilities in your project team? Do you want to make impacts visible and need a monitoring system or evaluation for this purpose? I have been advising projects in the fields of social work and international cooperation for over 25 years – with specialist knowledge, methodological expertise and my own experience as a project manager.
Projects are primarily used where organisations want to test innovative approaches or pursue concrete results. Projects are considered a "thorn in the side of bureaucracy", meaning that they are intended to stimulate change in established routines and regulatory systems within organisations. Today, projects are often under intense pressure to deliver results: project goals and expectations are very demanding, while resources are scarce and time is limited. A convincing project strategy – developed jointly by the most important stakeholders – provides orientation, but must also be regularly adapted to dynamic contexts. With many years of experience, I can support you in managing these areas of tension.
Multicultural, diverse project teams pose particular challenges for project management – it is important to deal sensitively and professionally with the coexistence of similarities and differences, as well as power relations and identity issues. I am happy to advise you in this area and contribute intersectional perspectives.
