Hi, I'm Katharina. I lead digital projects, people & organisations.
After stations at tech companies like XING and Google I have worked with various clients ranging from startup to corporate throughout their digital transformation.
Hand in hand with my clients I work to build great digital products that are useful for their customers. I believe in open communication and great team work.

Leading complex digital projects
To build great digital products that customers love often entails complex processes, involves several stakeholders and spans over various different systems.
Smooth
Delivery
From client idea to the shipped project. I work along every step of this development and shape processes to optimise it.
Technical Foundation
API, git, deployment, javascript or CDN all sound like Greek to you? I know who to talk to and what to ask for in order to get the right answers.
User
Centricity
Finding out what the user really needs usually requires thorough user research. I make sure to stay focused on the user throughout the project.
Stakeholder Management
Internal politics, intransparency and alike can make projects challenging. I keep everyone in the loop, get all hands to the table and ensure that deliverables are provided on time.
Bridging
the Gap
I talk to developers as well as to people with a business background. This means aligning requirements, matching expectations and sometimes moderating needs.
QA &
Testing
The project is live but somehow the result doesn’t work as expected? Code review, load test, cross device and user testing – no delivery without the necessary QA.
Project Management Coaching
What about your projects?
Most agencies I speak to, whether they have 5 or 500+ staff, report the above named challenges and more. Project management has a fundamental impact on both the financial success of a project as well as on teamwork and employee satisfaction. This is how I can help you:
Often there is no room for a large consulting budget, so I aim to provide pragmatic and hands-on help in day-to-day operations. In weekly check-ins of about one hour, I advise and support your project managers in their projects.
-
Health check of the projects
-
Review of reporting and controlling
-
Review and identification of suitable tools and platforms
-
Preparation of critical meetings or retros with clients or team
-
Support with sprint, milestone or project planning
-
Development of standard templates and a knowledge base
Sounds like I can support you in a meaningful way?
Then I look forward to hearing from you!
