He has read “The Goal” at least 4 times, “Lean Thinking” at least 3 times, and has seen Star Wars more times than he can count (Han shot first!).

He is an avid collector of music and, using “The Rolling Stone Top 500 Album List” as a guide, has managed to buy 490 of the 500 best albums of all time (as CDs - the rest are out of print).

As a strategic designer, I inspire people to create more meaning.
In the companies where I create, I build knowledge and teams.
I commit them to human-centricity.
Which means that they solve real persons' problems through scientific methods.

For 15 years, I have been focussing on accessibility and inclusion.
Two subcategories of sustainability.

❌ The following two quotes describe my generation's problem to solve.

❌ "Form-follows function is the excuse for shitty design!" quote of my mentor Hartmut Esslinger

❌ "Lipstick on a pig - Underneath it's still a pig!"

My recipe:

✅ "It must not be pretty. It has to neurologically and emotionally work!"

What I do next to building up human centred design knowledge and teams:

👉 Currently I am writing my book on accessibility as a revenue accellerator. The title is "How many F-UX do I give"

👉 I have been building open source a11y games to solve life's serious issues with ease...

👉 With my own company I focus on a11y. We make product and service companies fit for the European Accessibility Act.
