Frank Lichtenberg
Director

“The best possible employee empowerment has always been a personal concern of mine. In this sense, I have also fundamentally anchored this topic at INVENSITY. The INVENSITY ACADEMY now carries out this mission excellently for our employees and external partners from industry and science. To this end, I am thrilled to contribute my experience from the venture capital and start-up business, from technology consulting, and the training and continuing education of INVENSITY’s management team, among others. Here, my focus is on the areas of leadership and entrepreneurship.”

Daniel Pfeifer

Daniel Pfeifer
Head of INVENSITY Academy

“My motivation for knowledge sharing and empowering others has long been part of my personal vision and mission and an integral part of my personal life and sport. Therefore, I have already held, adapted and redeveloped numerous trainings for internal employees, students and clients since I started at INVENSITY. For me, training is a means of enabling participants to achieve their goals in the best possible way. For this purpose, practical relevance is essential to ensure actual applicability and transfer to real-life situations and challenges. This is especially true for the planned contents in the area of personal development, because these have the potential to influence all areas of life positively and sustainably. In addition to the high degree of practical relevance through exercises and case studies, I use my personal wealth of experience, as do most INVENSITY trainers. My experience as a consultant, head of the INVENSITY ACADEMY, mentor, business developer and disciplinary manager.”

Carsten Landgraf

Carsten Landgraf
Consultant & Member of Mentoring Committee

“For me as a trainer, the exchange and open discussion with the participants is critical. The exchange enables the stimulation of the thought process, creates spaces for discussion, and leads to insights. I benefit from my experience in the technical field (safety management) and my knowledge of leadership, mentoring, and personal skills. Thus, theory and practice flow into my trainings. In this context, I need to be flexible and not to follow a rigid template, but moreover to use freedom and to respond individually to the participants to provide them with the best possible insight process.”

Nadine Bey

Nadine Bey
Project Management Expert & Senior Consultant

“I am driven by the desire to create continuous improvement. Be it a process, a product, or an individual’s situation. I believe that there is always a better way. The scientist and visionary in me will always want to find this out, whereas the project manager and rational part in me will first weigh up the corresponding benefits and effort in this respect. To improve something, one must first develop one’s abilities. Focus on your strengths and tackle the things you have the most leverage on. I want to help others do just that – recognize their strengths and potential, become aware of their skills and abilities, and develop themselves. My goal is to empower these people to achieve their own goals and contribute to improvement. In addition to professional expertise, soft-skill competencies are, in my opinion, essential to be successful in this endeavor – because if an idea, no matter how good, is not communicated appropriately, it remains just an idea.”

Roberto Guevara

Roberto Guevara
Organizational Change Expert & Senior Consultant

“It has always been a passion of mine not only to expand my knowledge but also to pass on knowledge to others. This is precisely what I set out to do as a trainer because when you share your successes and setbacks, others have the opportunity to use these experiences to their advantage.

In training, I prefer the interactive way of presenting to identify with the content conveyed. Methods and content I address in my trainings vary from a mix of self-optimization basics to applied theories and a forecast for their future.

Change starts within ourselves. Our trainings help you identify why, how, and what needs change, and we support you in making a change in yourself and then in others.”

Christian Friedrich

Christian Friedrich
Head of Quality Management Department & Managing Consultant

“In my trainings, passion is the key to success to anchor knowledge in a sustainable and livable way. In addition to the pure imparting of knowledge, I want to awaken this passion and enthusiasm in the participants, which I also feel. To bring the participant along, my trainings have a very high interactive and practical part, to involve each participant in my training topic. Incorporating the participants’ prior knowledge and experience into the knowledge transfer is helpful. The shared exchange in discussing the results helps to level the knowledge and share different perspectives across all groups.”

Christian Schubert

Christian Schubert
Testing Expert & Senior Consultant

“I consider the practical relevance of a training course to be significant for ensuring learning success. An experienced trainer who uses the subject matter daily can pass it on authentic and targeted manner. On the other hand, I see interactivity in training as a second important component to increase learning success. Therefore, in my training courses, I place great emphasis on exercises and simulations in which the participants can directly apply the theory taught. Extensive feedback rounds help correctly classify and consolidate the implemented learning content.”

Volker Lipitz

Volker Lippitz
Executive Board Member & Managing Consultant

“All the trainings I develop offer a balanced mix of theory and practice. As a professor’s son, I feel connected to scientific practice, and my content must be sound. Since we as a company are not only consulting but also directly involved in the implementation, the knowledge we acquire is pure theory and practice-proven. Thus, the applicability of this knowledge is also at the same time the focus of the training. I use a varied portfolio of delivery techniques to achieve the learning objective at hand and give each training session something special that stays in the memory.”

Fabian Ziegler

Fabian Ziegler
Principal Business Consultant

“Holding training sessions in front of an audience of strangers is a challenge for me that challenges me anew each time and is a joy differently each time: No auditorium is the same; it’s always a matter of adapting to the audience, their goals, and their interests. I like to let the participants be creative sometimes; I use absurd and crazy case studies to force them to think “out-of-the-box” (physicists…) I am happy about stimulating discussions and “uncomfortable” participants. That’s exactly what makes it never boring, and in the end, I learn something new myself every time.”

Sascha Hackmann

Sascha Hackmann
Head of Automated Driving Safety & Principal Consultant

“I have always been fascinated by physics and the ability to recognize, understand and explain physical phenomena. For me, it has always been amazing that it takes much more time to grasp a complex context than to be able to reproduce it later and explain it understandably. In technology consulting, I want to pass on the expert knowledge that I have acquired over a long time as efficiently as possible, whether to customers or our employees. In the trainings, it is therefore important to me to convey the knowledge about contexts, models, and methods in the best possible way. I design the trainings interactively, whether through spontaneous lectures or the joint development of models. In this way, I want to show the training participants that the newly learned knowledge can be applied and the meaning behind why they should learn something specific.”

Academy Trainer

Benefit from our experienced trainers! Over many years, our trainers have proven themselves to be experts in their field. Their expertise and experience constantly grow with each project and cross-industry activity. Through our Centers of Competence and the INVENSITY Innovation Center, the structure and expertise of our trainers are formed. They jointly develop professional training and constantly expand them in cooperation with the Academy. New approaches are discussed, evaluated, integrated, and incorporated into – perhaps already existing – trainings.

We permanently deal with studies, papers, and articles and always use this input to be well informed about new technological trends, innovations, and inventions.

All our trainings are tailored to the specific needs of the technology and IT industry. They are implemented through various formats depending on the number of participants, interaction level, and learning objective. In particular, our trainers focus on the forms: Training, Workshop, and Coaching, but the core elements are always variable and individually tailored to the participants.
