Founder of the BetaCodex Network,
Expert on Reinventing Organizations for High Performance, and Best-Selling Author of Organize for Complexity

Niels is something of a rare animal. He combines two roles in his client work: On one hand, he offers inspirational, thought-provoking, highly conceptual and entertaining impulses as a world-class speaker. On the other hand, he helps organizations internationally with triggering, mapping and leading profound & robust change initiatives as a highly effective advisor. Few people are capable of doing both, on the same high level of professionality.
 
Niels combines all of that with a literally boundary-less, world-wide scope and with speaking four of the world´s most important languages fluently (English, German, Spanish and Portuguese). He has an international network of trusted partners and colleagues that he relies upon in all of his advisory work.
