Personal note:

I'm fascinated by the way people work together. The good, the bad, and the ugly. The way we work together can enable our best to emerge, and it can keep people from bringing in their ideas and potential. My way of working is to truly engage everyone and make that an everyday reality, not just for fancy offsites and workshops.

Wo sind sie, die Geilen Uschis auf den Bühnen? Diese Frage stellte Henriette Frädrich Anfang 2019 und kurz darauf war der Geile Uschi-Kongress geboren. Ich durfte mitwirken und habe mein Projekt Lieblingsorte vorgestellt: Fernwandern, Interviews, Ost nach West, und die Frage: was braucht es, damit aus Orten Lieblingsorte werden?

Podcast Lieblingsorte

Ein Podcast von Ost nach West. Von "die" zu wir, von unbekannt zu bekannt, von Orten zu Lieblingsorten. Ich bin im Sommer 2019 von Dresden nach Köln gewandert und habe unterwegs Menschen interviewt, die mir ihre Lieblingsorte verraten haben: auf der Suche nach Verbindungen zwischen Orten, Menschen und Geschichten.
