Uli seeks to release potential – in organisations as well as in people. He finds motivation in cultural differences and commonalities, and draws strength from mountains and interpersonal relationships. His response to the time-honoured question What’s the point? is to build trust, discover new perspectives and deliver  a healthy dose of humour. He focuses on four sources of potential: innovation, conflict, leadership and change. Among those he has helped tap into these resources are large corporations, family-owned businesses and research institutes. Wherever he’s at work in Germany or abroad, his children’s laughter always brings him back home.
