Insights into my work
About me
My name is Katharina, and I have over ten years’ experience as facilitator of workshops and moderator of events. Having worked with international organizations, such as the UN and NGOs, as well as in the consulting industry, I bring in diverse experience in designing and facilitating events, panel discussion, conferences, trainings, strategic retreats and ending workshop fatigue. My authentic and humorous way of facilitation makes it easy for me to connect with the audience, read the room and respond quickly to unplanned situations and to let your event shine.
Staying calm in heated discussions
In today’s world it’s more important than ever to create spaces, where different actors can discuss and meaningful exchange, by asking the right questions and handling controversies safely to make different voices heard.Â
Passion for interactive trainings and workshops
I am convinced that we learn and exchange best when we get to try things out and mix theory with practice. Combining approaches of experience-based learning and non-formal education with a clear goal is one of my biggest passions.
Strategic thinking beyond the events
My portfolio goes beyond designing and hosting single events, training sessions, and activities. As a certified professional in change management and project management (PRINCE2), as well as a SCRUM Master, I create experiences that focus on outcomes and building sustainable relationships to advance your organization or initiative.
Recommendations
Katharina impressed with her outstanding moderation that evening. Despite the difficult discussion climate, she led the event with remarkable calm and professionalism – and created space for a variety of perspectives on the highly controversial topic. Her ability to steer the discussion fostered a constructive and enriching exchange.
