Governance Consulting
“Good governance is the one-third of ESG that is easy to implement – and strategically essential for sustainable corporate success.”
Governance is far more than a bureaucratic obligation. When implemented correctly, it becomes a strategic advantage, creating clear structures, enhancing transparency, and delivering measurable results.
As an experienced General Counsel and certified board member (NED), I am able to develop pragmatic, tailored governance solutions that strengthen your company and drive results. Whether integrating ESG goals, reducing risks, or optimizing decision-making processes – together we build structures that make your business more agile, resilient, and future-ready.
Advisory Board Work
“Strong advisory boards are true game changers – they drive growth, secure succession, and guide companies through crises.”
My passion for advisory board work, coupled with my experience with ineffective boards and my in-depth knowledge of governance, has shown me how critical strong, competent boards are to business success.
Whether as a board member, consultant, or moderator, I support companies in shaping advisory board work strategically, solution-oriented, and with a future focus. With deep expertise and hands-on experience, I am able to create clear structures and deliver real value. Let’s turn advisory board work into a powerful tool for your company’s sustainable success.
