Thorsten sees "collaboration" as the central element when it comes to the development of leaders, teams or organizations. What purpose does collaboration serve? What patterns does the organization of collaboration follow? How should it be organized in the future?
In the systemically oriented consulting process (coaching sessions, sparring, workshops, conferences), it is important to him to create spaces in which those involved can use their creative power.
