Food for thoughts
Blog.
Drawing on over 30 years of professional experience navigating complexity at the intersection of leadership, integrity, and resilience, I offer strategic insights, sharp reflections, and actionable impulses. This blog does not concern itself with trends. It is about identifying what truly matters when the sea gets tougher, decisions become challenging and the stakes are high, and when silence is not an option. For leaders who value integrity, clarity and transparency over noise and impact over vague intention.
Track down the lies with the Fraud Triangle
In theory, we know them all – the visualized methods to strategy, governance, governance, processes, risks, compliance, etc..
Success: Do we have to choose?
Do we have the choices? Yes. Do we have to choose? No. But that’s what they wanted to make me believe for more than three decades. Sport or career or family or free time. What upset me about that? The word „or“.
The Hypothesis Work: Strategists’ Move
It is indispensable – the hypothesis work – in the perception of responsibility. Regardless of whether it is a matter of developing strategies in the professional, sporting or private environment.
Sociograms – the probably most important (?) puzzle stone of an investigation
Facts investigation are carried out in parallel or sequentially in various phases. The sociogram is an important element that facilitates the everyday life of an investigator, examiner, auditor, expert or consultant.
Social Engineering: The (deceitful?) Art of Seduction
We’re still too young for the grandparent scam. We don’t fall for e-mails with strange senders. CEO fraud cannot happen with us. We are only active in the country. The justifications and excuses can be supplemented at will.
Artificial Intelligence: (Digital) Bias – automatically convicted?
We allow ourselves to be influenced in our private and business lives. From stereotypes, prejudices, and discrimination. Consciously and unconsciously. Analog and digital. Does artificial intelligence help us?
Pitfalls In Ethics and Integrity
There are plenty of reasons that even organisations with great intention struggle with integrity issues but there are a few pitfalls which could be eliminated to start with.
Foster Corporate Integrity
There are many creative and successful elements which can be used to implement a powerful code of conduct.
Why integrity is about dreams
A practical way to anchor integrity as the roots of integrity goes back to the individual value system of each single person involved in the system we take into consideration.
Risk – Identification – a question of diversity, communication, and guts.
The risk identification process could be described as the art of understanding your business. Do you?
Unplanned Novel Risks
How you can train your capabilities of identifying novel risk – no matter whether you have to do it as an individual for your family and friends or as a professional for your own business or for the one you take care of?
How to manage the decreasing willingness to comply
Have you ever thought about what “crisis fatigue” could mean in the corporate world? Not only on individual level? What I still see is, the risk of having to many rules to comply with which are not effectively implemented.
Is compliance possible in crisis?
As a result of the current crisis, priorities have been redefined – into the so-called crisis mode of those responsible. Consciously or unconsciously. There is a strong suspicion that this happened unconsciously in many organisations, which increases the risk of misallocation.
The role of psychology in the territory of cyberspace
No matter what kind of excuses are found – the human factor remains the biggest security gap in the cyberspace – therefore it is our biggest success factor
The myth of «Code of Conduct» in the cyber territory
How do you behave when they enter the internet? Aka Cyber Space? Do you change your identity and above all your behaviour within seconds?
