Strategic Management

“

…Katharina proved to be far more than a consultant during the pre-opening phase...she was a strategic partner with an instinctive understanding of the luxury guest mindset. She guided us through critical steps of positioning and commercial strategy. Her talent for forging the right partnerships impressed us the most… she laid a foundation of trust with selected key account and Fam Trip collaborations. As a coach, Katharina's luxury hospitality coaching brought fresh inspiration and sharpened collective awareness of emotional guest engagement, brand identity and true luxury service.

Passion and Inspiration

Katharina worked for me as DOSM at one of the finest luxury hotels… in Berlin for two years. She has proven as very dynamic and business focused professional with a great talent to easily connect with new clients and agents in the luxury segment. Her existing portfolio of contacts and genuine talent to engage with new clients nationally as well as internationally and manage the relations throughout various industries is fantastic.
