ADAPTABILITY CONSULTANCY AND TRAINING SERVICES
ROOTED IN THE SOCIAL SCIENCES
Transform to perform in dynamic environments
Change isn't a question of if but a matter of when. Organizational systems are subject to constant negotiation between processes, goals and resources. Rusty processes (barriers) and limited resources (human and social capital) inhibit how organizations adapt to change and evolving market demands.
I like to think of adaptive capacity as predicated by proactivity and strategic resource allocation; in simple terms how well you adapt to changes is based on how often you've practiced adapting.
The Learning Laboratory is the training grounds for adaptability and combines the insights of a case study to uncover your organisational needs with theoretically informed applied games to empower teams to (1) collectively regulate their resources, (2) manage contextual barriers, and (3) stimulate diverse knowledge networks to maintain performance and agility in a dynamic environments.
I believe adaptability is a muscle, and like any muscle, it can be built.
That belief comes from years of studying people at their most unsettled moments. As a researcher and lecturer at the University of Bern, where I earned my PhD, I focused on transitions and identity: what happens to our sense of who we are (personal, professional and organizational) when the ground shifts beneath us. My strength is listening closely to subjective experience. I hear the stories people tell about change and turn them into insight others can act on.
Elite sport is where this began, both in my own career as an athlete and as the focus of my research. Few environments test identity and adaptability so intensely, and the lessons travel far beyond sport.
Today I translate them into organizational contexts. I help teams navigate transitions through adaptability training, using interactive workshops and applied games that make change something you practise, not just endure.
I'm also deeply immersed in Switzerland's entrepreneurial ecosystem. Since 2021 I've volunteered with Swisspreneur, writing blogs, books and content, and I've recently stepped in as Chapter Chair for the EO Accelerator programme at Entrepreneurs' Organization.
And on two wheels: I founded RIDE RAWR, a women's cycling community in Central Switzerland built on three pillars: education, connection and empowerment. We host yearly events and create educational and inspirational content, and I'm proud to be a brand ambassador for Canyon and MET Helmets. It's the same work in a different arena: helping people grow into new identities and feel capable in unfamiliar terrain.
If your team is facing a transition, or you want to build adaptability before you need it, let's talk.
We do not discover ourselves, we constantly make and remake ourselves.
The ship wherein Theseus and the youth of Athens returned had thirty oars, and was preserved by the Athenians down even to the time of Demetrius Phalereus, for they took away the old planks as they decayed, putting in new and stronger timber in their place, insomuch that this ship became a standing example among the philosophers, for the logical question of things that grow; one side holding that the ship remained the same, and the other contending that it was not the same.
