Alexandra Haenig

"Projects change the lives of others!"

is my motto in project management. As a project manager, I leave - when the product is taken over in the company - the users are left behind.

We have different needs every person, every day and everywhere. I love change and diversity, organization and team spirit. I can find that in project management and as a coach for project managers and companies. I like to give security and a vision during change. If it doesn't go according to plan A – then there is always a plan B. Taking the team and, above all, the users who appreciate their security and their processes on board is one of the biggest, most beautiful challenges of my job.

How do I work?

I am a self-employed program manager, assessor, lead ecological trainings and sometimes I can also be found as a medium mountain guide, tap dancer and entertainer. With over 20 years of experience, I have the experience in business to pass on my heart's affairs as an assessor and coach.

Where do I come from?

Europe is my home. After graduating from high school in Freiberg, I went to Ireland for 3 years – without a return flight. There I did an apprenticeship in media production and then decided to study mathematics – universal, analytical, associative, fantastic and a lot of fun. This was followed by years abroad - Norway, India, Spain, Switzerland, France and projects in more than 15 different countries. I was able to learn a lot in the process.
Today I live in Europe, part-time in Germany, part-time in countries with mountains – and finally speak 4 languages fluently – a childhood dream.

What am I telling?

In my sessions, I like to take the audience on a mountain tour. My passion for nature and the mountains gives me a balance to everyday computer life and many interesting parallels. Together we look into the heart of project management - risk, stakeholders, goals, environment, change - tools do not exist for themselves, but to benefit the project and the people.
