As the “state of the art” in organizational diagnosis, the VSM focuses on the nervous system of the organization, the decision-making and communication processes, and thus goes beyond the “normal” views of organizational charts and processes.
This third dimension of organizing offers groundbreaking new insights for a diagnosis and design of the enterprise. Properly designed, it turns dealing with complexity into a company’s strength.

From agility to viability: improving the company’s management capability is the top management issue for the coming years. The agile frameworks represent a major step in this direction. At the same time, it is sobering to realize that the company as a whole has not become more agile. The VSM closes this gap and expands the concept of agility to include viability.

I have been a digital native from the very beginning, since I learned to program with my first Apple computer at the age of 12. In 1995, I founded one of the first digital agencies in Germany and left voluntarily after 20 years. Today, I advise and coach managers, teams and companies on their way to a sustainable organization.
One of my areas of expertise is the Viable System Model, on which I have published three books and which helps me to harmonize the operational and strategic development of organizations – beyond current fashions. My motto is: “Freedom and responsibility for intelligent organizations”.
