Profile
Everything I do in my career revolves around one word: TRANSFORMATION. This is what I believe in:
- Business/Marketing can be a positive influence on the planet and still be profitable.
- Education should be an invitation for transformation.
Before my career at the FHNW, I worked for 15 years in the pharma- and chemical industries as a financial analyst at Schering Plough, as a market analyst and marketing manager at Monsanto, as a logistics and inventory analyst at Sigma Chemical und finally, as a market analyst for my own business, Global Solutions. Today, I am the owner of Black Sheep Marketing GmbH focusing on sustainable marketing & product innovation.
