TRANSFORMAZING
The art of creating the future
Transformation rarely fails for lack of strategy. It fails when people freeze overwhelmed by constant change, uncertainty of the own role and old narratives. We work on exactly this point. Transformation+ helps leadership teams and organizations regain their Gestaltungskraft: the human power to imagine, decide, and bring into reality what doesn't yet exist. Whether the trigger is AI, a shifting market, or the need to reinvent what you do, the capabilities that carry you through are the same: judgment, imagination, and the courage to act before everything is certain.
And yes in the AI era, these capabilities stop being nice-to-have. They become the last real differentiator.
What we do.
Five formats, one goal: activating Gestaltungskraft — from a one-hour impulse to a multi-year transformation.
STRATEGY workshops & offsites
When your leadership team has the data but not the shared picture: we design and facilitate strategy workshops and offsites that align the room on where the organization is heading and on how to bring your people along. Not another market analysis. A direction everyone in the room will actually carry.
KEYNOTES & Impulses
When your summit, conference, or offsite needs more than a trend report: inspiring and talks on what what matters now in the AI era: the significance of being human, leading hybrid teams beyond Cognitive Debt, and why creative fitness is the new strategic KPI.
TRANSFORMATION consulting
We support you as advisors and co-creators with smart, hands-on transformation architectures, intervention designs, and communication that sticks and mobilises. Grounded in 30 years and more than 200 international transformation projects.
CREATIVITYGym
The next big thing in capability development is building human creativity in order to secure the value of ai. CREATIVITYGym is our new signature concept using the methods that really deliver. Start with a four-hour session, or grow it into a full bespoke creative fitness program.
LEADERSHIP development
When ambitious goals demand a leadership team that moves as one: we synchronise perspectives and future narratives. And we build the capabilities that matter now: empathy, presence, communication, resilience, judgement, and creativity so the organization stays connected, engaged, and performing through profound change and uncertainty.
Be a Mensch. Why the AI era needs more Originals.
​As AI takes over analysis, text, and code, the world fills with fast, polished sameness and the un-copyable becomes the new premium. The AI era is not the end of human relevance, but the beginning of a human renaissance.
​
The Intellectual Liquidation Sale. Why leadership just became more demanding — and more human​.
​Leaders will find themselves at the head of mixed teams: humans and AI agents, side by side. This keynote names the risks nobody budgets for: Cognitive Debt, the quiet atrophy of judgment and the creeping isolation of people who spend their days talking to algorithms. What leadership must now hold is asking the right questions, owning the decisions, keeping teams connected and creative. Based on a navigation system tested in 30 years of transformation practice.
​
High Tech Needs High Creativity. Creative fitness is the new strategic KPI.
AI executes standard optimization instantly — so the edge shifts to what no algorithm can do: breaking patterns and inventing new categories. That capability is like a muscle, and it atrophies when teams delegate their thinking to machines. This keynote demonstrates how to secure this emerging superpower.

What our clients say.
Julia Kroeber-Riel, TRATON
"The transformation+ team managed not only short-term projects, but also helped to shape our long-term transformation process in a very creative, self-organized and super reliable way. It is always fun to meet and get inspired, to work and execute together."
Roman Brauneis, Schufa
"transformation+ hat einen unendlichen Fundus an kreativen Ansätzen, Methoden und Lösungswegen. Geht nicht, gibt es nicht. Das Team um Imke Keicher hat es bei uns in der SCHUFA geschafft, ein erfolgreiches Traditions-unternehmen fit für die Zukunft zu machen. Transformation plus ist dem schnellen Veränderungsprozess immer noch einen Schritt voraus. Das ist ein echtes Plus!"
Martin Finkmann, AUDI
"Eines ist mir besonders wichtig - liebes Transformation Plus-Team: von Euch haben wir echt viel gelernt. Eure dynamische, agile und unkonventionelle Arbeitsweise hat uns mitgerissen und dafür gesorgt, dass wir zusammen mit Euch Ergebnisse erzielt haben, wie wir es vorher nicht für möglich gehalten hätten. Ein ganz dickes Kompliment an Euch – Ihr seid klasse!”
My entire career has been driven by a single question: How do humans create what does not yet exist? How do we imagine futures and possibilities, turn them into reality, and reinvent ourselves along the way. Today, this question feels more relevant than ever.
Obsessed with digital optimization, we are reinventing work — while losing sight of what it means to be a Mensch: profoundly empathetic, fiercely creative beings. The world needs more Originals, thriving in community with others — not standardized components built to fit rigid boxes.
My work is to break this trap.
I am a sparring partner for leadership and culture, helping C-suite executives step out of their comfort zones, challenge mental boundaries, and access new dimensions of possibility. In short: regain their Gestaltungskraft.
A cross-pollinator at home in transformation consulting, future studies, and art, I have guided profound transformations for more than 30 years — as an entrepreneur, as Vice President at Capgemini Consulting, as Director at Motorola, and as a keynote speaker for the Zukunftsinstitut.
Yet roles and titles are only a faint reflection of what actually drives me: an immense curiosity about people, cultures, motives, and belief systems — and what it takes to turn ideas into reality. My biography has never been a straight line. It is an ongoing exploration of possibility.
More than 200 international projects across the Americas, Europe, and Asia have taught me one fundamental truth: true transformation is what humans are exceptionally good at — if they fully embrace their Gestaltungskraft.
