About Me
In the 1990s, I embarked on my journey in the advertising industry, founding and leading two successful limited liability companies that specialized in outdoor transit advertising. Employing over 40 people, these companies quickly became industry leaders. By 2001, they attracted the attention of a U.S. listed company and Europe’s investment fund, leading to a strategic sale of shares in 2003.
From 2005 to 2015, I founded and presided over a company that mastered the complex commercialization of development market leaders, successfully selling more than 1,000 apartments and 350 condo hotel apartments. Between 2009 and 2018, I served as a strategic shareholder and chairman of the supervisory board at Expom SA, a global provider of marine equipment, where I facilitated significant growth before selling my shares in 2018.
My expertise lies in building company value and creating effective strategies, honed through collaborations with prestigious institutions like Ernst & Young, Gallup Institute, PwC, and Harvard Business Review. I approach my work like an instrument tuner, refining processes—especially those involving interpersonal relationships—to achieve harmony and peak performance. I believe in the power of what I call the mental gyroscope and mental night vision, which guide individuals through complex challenges and unknown territories by fostering concentration, imagination, and self-esteem.
Throughout my career, I have focused on improving processes that enhance our ability to interpret events accurately, learn from successes and failures, ask the right questions, and use imagination to predict and plan for the future. These skills help us understand the influences around us and avoid manipulation.
As a consultant and author, I have written extensively on the development of social competence and effective business strategies. Over the past 30 years, I have spoken at more than 700 seminars, conferences, and congresses, often at charitable and social events, where I aim to inspire and mobilize my audience with engaging examples and thought-provoking questions.
