  • In dieser Episode spreche ich mit Henrik Niedieck darüber, was es wirklich bedeutet, Prozesse rund um die Uhr zu leben – beruflich, privat und sogar im Urlaub. Wir erkunden, wie aus prozessorientiertem Denken eine Haltung wird, die nicht nur die Arbeit, sondern auch den Blick auf die Welt prägt – selbst vom Strandkorb aus.

    Heute zu Gast:

    Henrik Niedieck

    Henrik ist Principal bei Lumics Consulting – einem Joint Venture von McKinsey & Company und Lufthansa Technik. Seit über zehn Jahren begleitet er Organisationen bei der Transformation ihrer Strukturen und Prozesse – mit Lean-Methoden und einem menschenzentrierten Ansatz.

    Henriks Leidenschaft für Prozessverbesserung geht weit über seine Beratungsprojekte hinaus. Ob bei der Optimierung von Flugzeugwartung, dem Coaching von Führungsteams oder der Analyse von Gästeabläufen im Urlaubsresort – Henrik betrachtet die Welt immer durch die Prozess-Brille.

    Außerdem ist er zertifizierter Triathlon-Coach und Ironman-Athlet – und bringt dieselbe Disziplin und den Gedanken der kontinuierlichen Verbesserung auch im Sport zum Einsatz.

    Die Episode haben wir bei einem spontanen Urlaubstreffen am Fleesensee aufgenommen – auf Deutsch, per Video, direkt aus dem Strandkorb. Das Video findest du hier.

    Du erfährst:

    Warum prozessorientiertes Denken mehr als ein Job ist – nämlich eine HaltungWie Lean und klassisches BPM gemeinsam nachhaltige Wirkung entfaltenWas es braucht, um Veränderung in internationalen Organisationen voranzutreibenWarum Prozessmanagement und Ironman-Training mehr gemeinsam haben, als man denktUnd was passiert, wenn zwei Prozess-Nerds im Strandkorb über Struktur, Flow und Prozesslücken philosophieren – sogar im Urlaub
