About Kathrin

Strategic Advisor for Founders | Operational Clarity & Accountability


I spent 20 years in high-stakes industrial operations where the gap between theory and execution can lead to immediate financial loss.
Today, I serve as an external set of expert eyes for founders who find themselves trapped in spinning too many plates instead of driving their company’s vision.

What I do:

I conduct 1-hour Friction Audits to identify exactly where your system logic is leaking and why your execution has slowed down.
I'm not a consultant; I provide clear action plan focusing on removing the bottlenecks a founder is facing and struggling to identify on its own.

Core Expertise:

- Scaling primary production & industrial logistics.

- System logic & process auditing.

- Founder-to-System transitions.

- Strategic Planning

- Organizational Development

- Leadership

- Management Consulting

Based in Weggis, CH. Available for high-impact diagnostic sessions and strategic oversight.
