When I moved from my cozy hometown of Münster to the big city of Munich, I naturally had some concerns at first. Will I feel at home here? Will I find connection? But those worries were unfounded. The colleagues I met daily in the office gave me a sense of stability from the start, and I could talk openly with almost anyone — even about personal challenges. The colleagues in my projects were also a key support, and I still look back fondly on my early days at blu BEYOND.

That’s not easy to describe. My role has evolved constantly over the past three years, so I’d say I don’t really have a “typical” day.

On one hand, I work as a project manager for a pharmaceutical company, supporting the rollout of global IT systems.

On the other hand, I’ve recently found a new home in the Sales team. I’ve had the chance to take over the clients of my valued colleague Kevin while he’s on parental leave. I also support our other Sales colleagues with presales tasks — and I’m learning a ton in the process. I’m really grateful for this opportunity.

And soon I’ll also be attending events across Germany — from conferences and workshops to research and funding projects, and even giving some talks myself.

Internally, I also work on our AI use cases and am part of the blu BEYOND BRAIN Lab.

In short: my workday is extremely varied, and every day I have the chance to spark, develop, and drive new ideas.

Definitely our Tuesday breakfast together! It’s a small team-building ritual that really makes a difference. And of course, my quick coffee breaks with Jürgen or other colleagues — those little chats in between can be surprisingly productive.

The coffee machine! I try to keep my caffeine intake low, so I don’t have one at home — but I do miss that little kick when working remotely. And of course, I miss the colleagues and the camaraderie.

They’re great in the office. Someone always has a story to share, and if not, we still find great topics to talk about. There’s never a dull moment around here!

I’d say: it depends. As a project manager, I’m often very hands-on, because more is expected of us than just “managing and delegating.” We’ve built a reputation for being deeply involved in the content and understanding the subject matter. That takes extra brainpower, but clients really appreciate it. In my sales role and in more strategic topics, I’m more consultative.

Even the biggest challenges can be overcome as a team!

With tools like ChatGPT and others, a lot will change. The better these LLMs get, the more tasks companies can handle themselves. Still, every company needs to engage in strategic workforce planning and ask: What skills do we have today? What will we need in 1, 3, or 5 years? And how can we enable our workforce accordingly?

That applies to blu BEYOND too — we need to keep evolving. Digital strategy consulting will continue to play an important role, but it will shift away from pure analysis toward helping organizations learn continuously, transform, and build future-ready capabilities.

Over the past three years, I’ve built a broad skillset — from project management and AI applications to classic soft skills like handling stress with confidence. Looking ahead, I’d love to further develop my sales skills so I can contribute even more to the company’s success in that area.

A constant drive to learn is essential. The world moves fast, research delivers new insights all the time, and technology keeps leaping forward. At the same time, always try to see the bigger picture and consider the influence of different directions.
