Achieving goals together
Our mission is to promote success that emerges from cooperation. We are convinced that through meaningful communication, we can achieve more together than one ever could do alone.
We are supporting our clients in developing their (business) relationships to include everyone's perspective, and individual strength for the collective success of the organisation.
We believe that people and organisations can master necessary transformations in challenging times. In addition this ability will contribute significantly to solve the issues of society.
We'll support...
...you personally
with coaching, sparring, and mentoring.
Would you like to develop your professional and personal skills?
Often this requires a safe environment, a recurring setting, and an outside person.
...you, having conflicts
with mediation and other offers of conflict solving.
What does it need to transform a terrible conflict to a fruitful challenge?
Conflicts are useful because they can play not only a destructive but also a constructive part for cooperation.
...your team
with team (development) workshops and trainings.
Would you like to have a team that unleashes its full potential—far beyond the sum of its individual members?
Teams are developing their own dynamics. The best way to shape these dynamics is to consciously take time for reflection, orientation, and joint progress. Such breaks create spaces in which teams gain clarity, grow, and take their collaboration to a next level.
...your organisation
with leadership, and organisational development.
Are you wondering how to economically adapt your organisation in response to rapidly changing environments? Would you like to tap into more creative potential and to innovatively master challenges?
With consulting expertise and cutting-edge science, we will work together to open the right doors into your desired future.
How do we support change?
Sensitive perception of existing dynamics without attributions and generic templates. We will listen precisely and ensure that you have been understood before we proceed with an agreed rollout.
Precise analysis without simple answers, but intelligent questions. We will assist you towards recognising patterns and changing them if economically needed.
Respectfully confronting you with unseen perspectives. According to agreement we will integrate useful ones and won't necessarily dismantle what already exists.
Unlocking effectiveness by focusing on factual circumstances and achievable goals.
Joint searching and finding to identify individual solutions. Our work approach is based on scientific models highlighting observation and acceptance of being different. Scientific models which are linked to, e.g., neuroscience, systems theory, and cybernetics.
Testimonials
"Ms. Susanne Weisheit from Rethinking Organisations coached and supported me on three different operational issues between 2017 and 2019. These were a) mediation between myself and a newly appointed manager b) two measures to optimize operational processes at all levels and with all employees. In all cases, Ms. Weisheit took a very structured approach, identified the problems and needs, developed strategies and solution concepts, and organised and moderated the discussion rounds. She prepared the results of the discussions and documented them in large-format to-do lists, which we posted in the company as reminders and suggestions. With her appreciative manner, Ms. Weisheit was extremely adept at winning over closed-minded and skeptical employees, encouraging them to open up and actively participate. She also succeeded in gaining the employees' understanding of the operational necessity of company requirements and expectations in the performance of their tasks. I am very grateful to Ms. Weisheit for her competent and dedicated work. I can and will recommend her for similar tasks with complete confidence."
"My experience with rethinking organisations has been thoroughly positive. Not only were the seminars on needs-oriented and appreciative customer service very well received by our colleagues, but the seminar leaders themselves were also very popular thanks to their needs-oriented, flexible approach. What was once a dreaded compulsory event turned into a lively gathering where even skeptics were won over. I am very grateful for the uncomplicated and always pleasant cooperation. I would do it again anytime if the opportunity arose!"
"On behalf of the Temafa team, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your support in the areas of cultural change and conflict management. We started this project three years ago, not without some concerns and worries about whether it could be implemented in the company and whether a cultural change could be achieved. With a great deal of tact, excellent advice, and a professional approach during the workshops and meetings at Temafa, even some skeptics recognized the value of working on themselves and implementing what they had learned. The entire team at Temafa would like to thank you very much for sensitizing us all to good cooperation and for deepening this over the years. If you have customers who are planning a similar project and would like a practical report, please feel free to contact us."
"Our experience with Ms. Weisheit as a process consultant in our group of companies can best be summed up with the word THANK YOU. Ms. Weisheit helped us with her outstanding expertise in communicating solutions, structuring, and transforming or adapting work processes within our company. Confident, clear, and goal-oriented, Ms. Weisheit uses professional questioning to reveal paths that may already exist but were previously unrecognized. This ensures a high level of understanding and willingness among employees for the implementation of new approaches within the company. In addition, Ms. Weisheit is characterized by her situational adaptability, which always allows for new questions and/or changes within the transformation process."
„Susanne Weisheit's coaching showed us a completely new way of working together as a team. The introduction to different communication approaches and techniques was particularly valuable. We learned to listen in different ways, not just passively, but actively and empathetically, in order to avoid misunderstandings and develop a genuine understanding of each other. The approaches we were shown have had a positive effect. We now work together not only more effectively, but also more harmoniously. The new approaches and perspectives have significantly improved the dynamics within the team. We are now able to overcome challenges more quickly and together. I am very grateful for the collaboration and inspiring support. I can recommend the coaching to anyone who wants to strengthen and promote teamwork!“
„I had the opportunity to experience Susanne as faculty during an internal corporate train-the-trainer training course on nonviolent communication (NVC Marshall Rosenberg). Her appreciative, attentive, and at the same time clear manner impressed me from the very beginning. She manages to convey content in a way that is understandable and practical—with a calmness and presence that enables genuine learning and reflection. I particularly appreciate the fact that the topics are closely related to everyday work and can be applied immediately. I always felt well taken care of during the training sessions and took away many ideas that still have an impact today. I am very grateful for the ongoing open exchange and inspiring sparring with Susanne – it constantly opens up new perspectives and strengthens my own development.“
Overcoming challenges together – why do we focus on cooperation?
Different complexities of the modern world emerge when human reality is emulated together with machines, technology, and AI and hit globalisation. Polycrises and metacrises cause additional new problems.
Cooperation is the key to deal with the described challenges and take advantage of emerging opportunities. Through coordinated action, everyone's skills and strengths will be guided to achieve common goals – at the same time, non-cooperative behavior will be confronted.
As social beings, humans are capable of cooperation. Our connections between each other, allow us to remain part of the tissue of life – even when everything else disappears. By balancing individuality and collective interaction, we will succeed living and surviving within groups.
The evolution of living systems, understood as development through change, enables us to master the challenges of the modern world. This will require constant learning, intelligent adaptation, and finding answers to the environments and their demands.
