As an organisational consultant, I help companies and departments optimise their structures and processes. There are two basic approaches to this: the design approach and the management approach. In this blog post, I will explain what these terms mean, what role they play in organisational development and how to successfully combine design and management.

Lightbulb moments are not something you can explain, they are something that you need to experience. Just like success factors for agility. As an agile coach, I often deal with teams who want to become better. If we engage in this process and accept the uncertainty, we can learn and gain new insights. Mindfulness facilitates this process and can help you work more successfully.

In my view, traditional user stories do not offer the team enough opportunity to stretch their creative legs. I think there are good reasons for writing real stories in backlog items – user experience (UX), customer centricity and, last but not least, motivation. Everyone on the team can identify with a real story – no matter what their role is or what their background is (technical or otherwise). I will explain why in this blog post.

The narrative that sustainability is time-consuming, expensive and contradicts business goals still persists. Critics of regulation in particular stubbornly uphold this dogmatic belief. Therefore, in this blog post, we will take a look at how much truth there is to this and why digital technologies are a decisive factor when it comes to environmental and economic sustainability.

The process-oriented organisation is an approach to business management that focuses on business processes. The goal is to make processes more efficient and thereby increase the company’s productivity and profitability. In this blog post, you will learn all about the power of process orientation and why it is so successful.

The increasing complexity of software systems calls for approaches that are new, modern and different. Domain-driven design is thus gaining more and more attention, as this approach is much more than just an aid for developing microservices. In this blog post, I will describe how domain-driven design can also be used in requirements engineering.

Companies can no longer avoid the migration to SAP S/4HANA. We want to standardise the transformation process with our active transformation – from strategic planning and organisational enablement to detailed planning and implementation. To this end, we have defined six stages with which we approach the S/4HANA migration process step by step. I want to use this blog post to present these six stages to you so you have a better understanding of our process model.

Moving documents from a drive to SharePoint seems simple enough. Just copy and paste the documents and folders, and they are all available to you again a short time later. That means users can continue to work as they normally would, right? Not exactly, since metadata would have been the better option here. And I will explain why in my blog post.

How can companies truly become more sustainable? Sustainability goals and voluntary commitments are proper and important, but many companies fail to put these plans into practice. In this blog post, you will be able to read about the challenges companies face when it comes to achieving sustainability goals and how digital technologies can help.
