Very early in life, I started asking myself: Why are we actually here? And: What am I doing here? After starting my career at a bank and completing my first degree, every day felt heavy – getting up, going to work, trying to find meaning in it all. I was surrounded by smart and kind people, yet still disappointed by life.

Switching to a small family business that sold lubricants was a break – but also my ticket to the world. At 20, I moved to the US and quickly learned what it means to survive in a highly competitive environment. It was tough, but it had purpose. I could shape things, build something, take on responsibility.

Seven years later, I was CEO of the US subsidiary and also led the UK, Sweden, and Asia-Pacific operations. I believed in what I was doing. Creating value with teams I had built myself, working with people I truly respected – that felt right. Nothing like before.

The following years took me into international leadership roles as VP and CEO – challenging, but incredibly formative. All the cultures, encounters, and experiences paid off. I became convinced: success is built through people – through direction, clarity, trust, and space to grow. Our company outgrew itself and was eventually acquired by the market leader.

And then I found myself at a crossroads. Reflecting during my sabbatical, I suddenly knew very clearly what I wanted: to move companies forward, lead teams, solve complex problems – ideally with people you enjoy working with. Not thinking about work-life balance, but about life itself.

That’s exactly what I want to do with LB10 AG. I’m grateful to be able to draw on my network, my experience, and the trust I’ve built over many years across various industries. Together with a great team, we actively seek out companies that need what I often lacked as a CEO: resources, time, and people who truly take ownership.

Our mission is to quickly understand your business – and develop concrete, impactful solutions together. Big or small: we give our best. Always.
