Hello,
my name is
Holger Heinze

Introduction

I founded my first internet company in 1999 and have kept working on disruptive start-ups, digital projects and consulting engagements ever since.

Today, I am Partner at O’Donovan Consulting AG, a boutique consulting firm focusing on customer centricity, cultural change and transition of medium sized organisations.

I design and deliver trainings for leaders and teams showing how to escape the drama triangle at work, creating resilience and an empowered mindset, aiding change projects and transformations. 

I have written a (German) book about how to take the drama out of the workplace. You can order it here: http://www.dramafreiearbeitswelt.de

I am also a sparrings partner for C-Level Executives and leaders/HR faced with cultural change, digital transformation and the goal to create culturally stable and resilient organizations.
