About Matthias
My work starts with understanding yours.
I'm Matthias Orgler. I work with leaders and teams on the things they want to change, build or make possible.
I've founded businesses, built software, and in Silicon Valley worked with Stanford and Berkeley researchers and startups to find technologies and markets clients could build on.
Keep what is worth keeping.
Change does not mean starting from zero. Your people already have experience, relationships and good instincts. I look for those strengths as carefully as I look for the obstacles.
At Isar Aerospace, that meant helping a capable leader build on the trust he already had with his team, alongside practical support with team organization.
I want the people I work with to leave more able to make their own decisions, not more dependent on me.
The leadership coaching storyLook for the strengths, not just the problems.
High-performing teams, on a different stage.
I'm a musician as well as an engineer. A touring band on stage is a remarkable microcosm of a high-performing team. I occasionally bring learnings from that world into my work on corporate innovation, leadership and agility, including using music in teaching.
I've also built a SaaS product for managing concerts. It has been in production with paying customers for more than a decade, and I continue to maintain and update it.
A background across technology, business and people.
Building businesses.
I've co-founded and built several companies, taking responsibility for both the products and the businesses behind them.
Innovation grounded in business reality.
In Silicon Valley, I worked with Stanford and Berkeley researchers and startups to discover technologies and future markets for our clients.
Engineering experience.
I hold a Master's degree in Computer Science and Business from TU Darmstadt, and I still work hands-on with software.
I work with executives on business priorities and with developers on the technical decisions behind them, down to architecture, automated testing and deployment pipelines.
