With a background spanning marketing, business, and organizational psychology, I have spent more than ten years helping multinational organizations navigate digital transformation, operational complexity, and organizational change.

My work focuses on the architecture of human systems and the conditions that determine whether technology translates into business value.

As Founder, CEO, and Strategic Advisor at Belltrix, I help leaders uncover the organizational dynamics that shape decisions, incentives, collaboration, and ultimately the success or failure of transformation initiatives.

I believe that when numbers fail to explain what is happening, the problem is rarely the data itself. More often, it is the system that produces it.

Kristin Ottlinger holds a degree in Cultural Studies and Political Science. She is the co-founder and CEO of Fuchs Devils Wild and a winner of the 2021 New Work Award.

For around 15 years, she has advised renowned national and international clients across a wide range of industries, from start-ups to DAX-listed corporations, on New Work, digitalisation and transformation.

Her foundation: Clarity. Resolve. Execution.
Her focus: the future of work in the age of AI.

Kristin Ottlinger takes a holistic approach to supporting organisations through transformation. Her work spans team development, the design of new structures and processes, and focused strategic counsel for executives and leadership teams.

A particular focus of her work is how leadership, organisations and AI need to work together in the future. She supports companies in the strategic adoption of AI, ensuring that technology and people do not simply coexist but, at their best, become a “perfect match”. Because new technology alone does not transform an organisation. And even the best concept has little value if it fails to deliver impact in day-to-day business.

Her work is therefore defined by a clear view of what lies ahead. Her conviction: change is not always comfortable. But it can be shaped. Provided organisations are prepared not only to talk about the future, but to turn it into action with consistency.

Alongside her consulting work, Kristin Ottlinger shares her extensive experience as a lecturer in New Work, leadership, communication and digital transformation at universities and educational institutions.

She is also a regular interview guest and speaker at events across Germany.

Nina Rodriguez is the founder, executive producer, and host of GRIEF AND LIGHT, a respected platform amplifying griever voices, expanding grief literacy, and offering meaningful pathways forward. Rooted in the belief that grief is not something to "fix", but something to tend, honor, and integrate, her work invites more honest conversations about loss and life after it.

Today, she serves as a grief-informed guide and space-holder, committed to helping individuals and communities live more fully in the “and”, where grief and joy coexist.

She leads the Get Griefy Podcasters Network, supporting independent creators in building sustainable, grief-informed platforms, and has hosted Reimagine’s Room for Grief gathering on multiple occasions.
