Strategy, technology and execution, one point of accountability.
Strategic leadership and a sound understanding of technology come together in one role. I have led a FINMA-regulated asset manager as CEO, carried COO and board responsibility in an international family office holding, and worked across various family offices. As co-founder of an IT company, I know technology from building it, not just from overseeing it. This combination is exactly what I offer family offices, regulated financial institutions and technology-driven SMEs.
About
Led, owned, built.
I founded INITCON (Schweiz) in 2007. Across more than 25 years of operational leadership, I have carried responsibility at executive level in regulated financial institutions, international holdings and technology companies.
As CEO, I led a FINMA-regulated asset manager. In an international family office holding I held responsibility as COO and board member across five locations. As co-founder, I built an IT services company and delivered more than a hundred transformation projects in competition with global technology providers.
Today I work with boards and executive teams on digital transformation, cybersecurity, AI, governance and regulatory change. I combine strategic leadership with technical depth and the responsibility of having carried both myself.

We Need to Talk: About IT Providers
IT providers recommend from their own portfolio, not from your actual requirement. Governance can manage that information asymmetry, but it cannot remove it.
The Long Letter: Why Rising Complexity Is One of the Biggest Unsolved Leadership Tasks
Complexity grows quietly and charges three bills at once: security, controllability and cost. Cutting the self-inflicted share moves all three together.
Cyber Reporting to the Board on Its Own Is Not Yet Governance
A good quarterly report tells the board what was noticed, not what happened. Boards need pre-committed decisions, not just reporting.
The Narrowed Corridor: How Harmony, Homogeneity and the Need for Consensus Can Threaten a Company's Future Readiness
Decades of selecting leaders for fit rather than friction narrowed the corridor of accepted profiles. Three more forces are narrowing it further.
