At Swisscom Directories I learned how to grow massive audiences. And build a platform and product portfolio from scratch in line with the corporate strategy - but in a agile setup. Happy for the experience owning commercial and operational Due Dilligence together with a great team of experts from Swisscom AG.

At Roche I enjoy working with various functions and the divisions to protect the company within the Digital Environment. And as a foundation to enable innovation in this exciting space. This company is one of the best companies I have ever worked for. The core values: courage, passion and integrity lay a foundation for a great place to work.

Working for retail I managed 25 people and substantial budget. Amongst the ten 'Genossenschaften' my mandate was to ensure consistency. With the support subject matter experts from all regions (Erfahrungsaustausch) we managed to implement their digital presence into one digital ecosystem.
I remember piloting social commerce in 640 brick and mortar Migros shops collaborating with Wildfire Inc. - being aquired by Google shortly after.

Head Digital for a media start-up in the heart of Zürich I faced many challenges and learned my lessons related to agility and result-driven communications. Ensuring consistent branding, connecting the dots between print and online was a condition to sell ads. I remember launching a football community game in 2008. Our team was rewarded with the Best of Swiss Web Award - Special category that year. And I dictated the story to an editor via my Nokia Phone at 10 o'clock that night in real-time for next morning print issue.
Wikipedia: With a claimed initial print run of 435,000, it was one of the largest daily newspapers in Switzerland, according to 2006 statistics. The newspaper was distributed directly to homes in Berne, Basel, St.Gallen, Lucerne and Zürich.

Swiss Radio DRS which I joined in 1999 was an eye opener regarding customer centricity. In 2004 we established and engaged with a community of radio listeners. Producing the first Podcast for Swiss Radio DRS or awarding the most entertaining blog content (King of Blogs) on a weekly basis was just amongst a few of our activities to engage audiences. Alway focussing on digital communications did not stop me from having on-air experiences (Globus Siesta on the Isle of Man, where my Grandparents lived).
