Stefan is the founder and mastermind of the institute. He has worked for a couple of decades as a designer and consultant for companies of all shapes and sizes. He founded the institute in 2014, just in time for the birth of his first daughter. In him, the German penchant for perfection, quality and structure meets the Italian dolce vita. Stefan can only do a few things at once, otherwise he is not happy and healthy. He loves developing ideas, making plans and getting new things off the ground. For many years he has unsuccessfully practised contemplative techniques to become calmer and more relaxed. He lives and works wherever there is electricity and internet.

Maria made it across early in her life - she moved from Dresden as a young adult to conquer Leipzig. She is not only good with people, but also with numbers, words and works. With a solid business background and a good shot at sales, she is dedicated to people and the human condition itself. She ensures that our team continues to grow - in every respect - and that we can strengthen ourselves with great, accomplished and motivated people. She is constantly on the air. When she is not on the air, she spends whole evenings with her son exploring Catan and the world.
