Principal Consultant

Hanno Ebsen

The bridge builder

“Reliable, considerate, goal-oriented, interpersonally sensitive – a safe bet in times of doubt.”Erwin Küng, Ex-CEO & Business Line Leader on Hanno

As a psychologist with over 25 years of experience in management consulting, I see myself as a translator between business topics and technological possibilities. Whether life sciences, IT or public organisations – my passion is solving complex problems, successfully implementing projects and building viable relationships between all stakeholders.

Background

My background.

I have worked as division head, team lead, project manager and consultant – leading transformation projects, building project management organisations and supporting companies in repositioning themselves. My focus is on effectiveness, clarity and collaboration – with an analytical eye, methodical strength and a great deal of empathy. As a certified project manager, ITIL Expert and long-time executive, I combine methodological depth with a pragmatic, communicative leadership style. I am a committed team player, clear in communication and solution-oriented in thinking and acting. And because I am curious, I volunteer with TEDxFreiburg to bring innovative ideas to the stage.
