Who am I? In one sentence: I am a 39 year old, married, German, sportaholic, business manager.
I moved from Germany to Birmingham together with my wife Andrea in October 2008, because of occupational reasons. As part of the Executive Management I am responsible for the organizational development and strategic realignment of the UK subsidiary of LISEGA Group of companies. LISEGA is the worldwide market leader for industrial pipe support systems (e.g. power plants).
At the moment we are living in the Birmingham City Centre and are direct neighbours of Jean-Luc in the Mailbox. During the eight years in Munich (from 1998 to 2006) I worked as a Management Consultant for an international Management Consulting Company. During that time I have done a lot of successful turnarounds at medium-sized technology-orientated companies with headquarter in Germany.
My private life is currently dominated by travelling through the beautiful English countryside and sightseeing. Besides several kinds of sport my activities and interests involve motor bike driving, Stephen King books, travelling abroad, Asian philosophy of life, as well as music and movies (I have a large collection of tunes and DVDs).
My motivation for the trip to the Kilimanjaro might be a little bit different because it is not only the look for the challenge:
Andrea and I had a very tough 2009 with several unsuccessful in vitro fertilisation's. Against this background I am currently in search of the sense of life, hoping that the experience at the Kilimanjaro can give me some additional input on my path of enlightenment.
Anyway, it will be a great adventure to climb on top of one of the highest mountains in the world with such a nice group of people. And if we can support the charity project with a decent amount of money it will be fantastic at all.
