Leveling the
Playing Field

Emotions are a vital part of human interaction and decision making. Acknowledging our conditions and reactions during any stage of the process – your own and theirs – is essential to understanding the motives and interests of all parties involved.

The art of decision making and brokering a sustainable deal is to incorporate the emotional part of the issues at hand without letting them control the path of communication.

Perspectives of various players can disrupt deal-making and impact sustainable relationships. Be it in partnerships with similar goals or in competition with opposing or conflicting interests. As a result, parties often reach for existing and premeditated solutions which do not address the deeper, underlying issues, and the real interests.

Instead, we need to establish reliable strategies allowing us to respond to challenges in leadership, negotiation, and partnerships. Such strategies consist of tested methods and the ability to adapt to new circumstances.

Nexus Nomin creates spaces for good leadership decisions. It focuses on ethical, dignified, and sustainable results.

Nexus Nomin is your partner in strategy management, challenging negotiation cases, and processes of change. It provides a platform to rethink the approach to ethical negotiations and modern leadership challenges.

I help assessing the context (perspectives, motives, and interests), preparing for and guiding through negotiation rounds. I help avoiding a situation of (potential) conflict, assessing interests and underlying issues.

There is a lot we can learn from the best, modern leaders – in theory and practice.

With more than 15 years of serving as co-founder and CEO of a globally active (privately funded) foundation with many high-level partnerships, I am sharing valuable insights into what makes an organisation become impactful.

I help you re-think your approach to put your purpose and mandate into practice: How does international cooperation in development and post-crisis work? How can your organisation be most impactful?

I help taking your philanthropic ambitions from your family office to the beneficiaries: How to set up a framework and measure outcomes with valid indicators? How to bring your investments from a legal structure to actually and sustainably serve the purpose?

You can expect in-depth analysis regarding purpose, mandate, beneficiaries, return of investment, and partnership potentials.

In order to successfully establish social change aligned to your porpuse we need to assess the various motives, interests, as well as the (socio-)political pressure points of stakeholders. Maintaining positive collaboration and engaging in innovative group thinking may result in reliable coalitions for change. It is therefore essential to understand the positions of various stakeholders, be it as partners or antagonists of the your theory of change, and clever communication.
