Prevention
For prevention topics, I am available for most event and workshop formats...
Awareness of risks and consequences is always a first step in the right direction when potential dangers are spotted early. My focus here is on practical examples that show there is almost always a choice – sometimes as simple as changing the environment or the way structures interact.
Prevention at organisational level
At the company level, I work with decision‑makers to clarify:
- how certain dependency‑driven behaviors can affect different substructures,
- how seemingly small harmful dynamics can trigger chain reactions,
- and how to design interventions that stop these chains before they escalate.
Even when terms like human capital management, security, and structural integrityappear, one principle remains non‑negotiable:
The most important resource in a company is still the human being.
With qualified human resources becoming scarcer, they must be handled with significantly more care than is often the case today.
From “problem persons” to recovered capital
Effective prevention is not about fixing a problematic aspect in isolation or flagging individuals as risks.
Instead, it is about:
- understanding how structures and incentives contribute to problematic patterns,
- turning impaired capital – people whose functioning is temporarily reduced – back into part of the solution,
- and designing environments in which autonomy and responsibility can actually grow.
In this sense, I categorically reject prevention concepts that are essentially systems for early detection and identification of “problem persons” for the sake of process optimization. That would amount to sanctioned stigmatization and simply export the problem beyond company borders.
Working together
I am happy to discuss with responsible parties:
- what options exist to preserve and regenerate human capital,
- how to invest wisely in prevention instead of merely absorbing damage,
- and how to shift from reactive crisis management to proactive structural care.
Prevention, done well, is one of the most rational long‑term investments an organisation can make – both economically and humanly.
