About CoCoBiz.Digital & What To Expect.

About CoCoBiz.Digital

With a unique blend of engineering expertise, top-tier McKinsey-consulting experience, and extensive CEO and C-suite leadership, I am dedicated to helping leaders and organizations unlock their full potential. My journey began with a solid foundation in engineering (M.Sc. MIT, Ph.D. ETH Zurich), where I specialized in AI, robotics, and high-performance & learning systems. This expertise laid the groundwork for my transition into leadership and strategic roles shaping the future of teams and businesses.

As CEO, Chief Strategist, and Chief Customer & Digital Officer at DAX companies, I have led large-scale business units and sales organizations through performance turnarounds and sustainable growth. I have also built and scaled digital-first start-ups, positioning them for long-term success. Through my work as a long-time lecturer at the St. Gallen Business School, I am mentoring next-generation leaders, providing practical insights that drive business transformation.

In organizational development, I bring both academic and practical experience of collective intelligence and learning organizations to the table, enabling each individual within the team to contribute to their fullest potential. By fostering a culture of collective accountability, I help building and leading empowered and inspired teams and organizations capable of tackling complex challenges and driving innovation with high adaptability.

How I Can Help

While I have enjoyed leading organizations firsthand, my passion now lies in partnering with a broader range of businesses and leaders to help them unlock their potential for future readiness in uncertain and disruptive times. As an "executive partner to executives and teams," I combine expert consulting with personal coaching to create sustainable, impactful results.

I strongly believe in working side-by-side with my clients, identifying opportunities for strategic growth, operational excellence, and digital and AI transformation - Together, we craft the tailored approaches and leverage of technologies, and build empowered organizations that are aligned to execute on strategic priorities and making your company fit for the future in demanding times.

By investing the right amount of time and focus, I provide tailored support exactly when it is and how much is needed — whether identifying opportunities, addressing challenges, or accompanying successful implementation. This collaborative approach turns challenges into competitive advantages, delivering practical, long-term solutions that lead to sustainable and measurable success.

I am available to help in various roles as trusted executive partner for owners and leaders of mid-sized companies, business units, and private equity firms — as a consultant, coach, or non-executive board member.
