Themes we can work on together

Each mandate is unique in my work.

Before we start, we discuss your needs, then co-create interventions and journeys that fit you and your organization.

What we do together is a craft, not the application of an off-the-shelf solution.

Conversation starters that often go hand in hand and examples to make it more tangible

An illustration of a figure holding different forms as representation for the elements of the work Im Obersteg Connect is providing: Strategyzing Journey, Organizational Transformation and Facilitation and Moderation.

Strategyzing Journeys

Strategy is a practice. Together, we explore new avenues for your organization’s strategic direction. We sharpen the existing strategy for sub-departments. We review the process made. And most importantly, we make sure your strategy is your anchor in every day decisions in your organization.

Examples:

  • Bi-yearly strategy offsite series for the CTO in an family-owned global technology company

  • Guiding a strategyzing process for a theater combining all-team workshops and leadership sessions with the co-lead duo

Organizational Transformation

Organizations are living systems. Together with all your relevant stakeholders we understand what fundamental shift is on its way. With a systemic organizational development lens, we consciously and continuously design interventions with a direct impact on your day-to-day reality. To learn and evolve.

Examples:

  • Sharpening decision making logics in a family-owned manufacturing company as basis for a leadership reorganization

  • Reflecting on decision making and communication patterns through improv theater in a national logistic company

Facilitation and Moderation

Facilitation is an art. Together we create a trusted space for you and your (leadership) teams to step out of your daily activities. A conference, an offsite or a big stage to deepen relationships, focus on your strategic priorities and most importantly, connect to joy.

  • Design, facilitating and moderating a co-creative top 100 leadership conference for an industrial company

  • Providing art of facilitation trainings and sparring sessions for leaders willing to facilitate important spaces themselves

“Lea strikes a rare balance between strategic clarity, years of hands-on experience, and profound human depth. Between her proactive preparation and her empathetic presence, her versatile expertise truly sets her apart.”

- Elmar Hufschmid, Vice President Technology, Endress+Hauser Flow

The Clients

Ultimately, the heart piece of my work is the people and organizations I collaborate with. Each journey is unique, because each person and organization is.

As a client, we work on eye level. You bring the system knowledge, the stakeholder insights and a deep understanding of the fabrics of the organization.

Together, we combine our respective fields of expertise. When the inside and outside perspectives merge, we are able to create new pathways for your evolving organization.

Do I have an industry focus?

No, I (luckily) don’t. Clients come from all walks of organizational life, ranging from producing SME’s, to industrial and technology companies, from banking to art institutions.
