The OKR Essentials video by Michael Kubiena was quite helpful for our workshop participants to understand the difference between OKRs and KPIs. Those who don’t work with OKRs said they are excited to try it out.

The workshop “Briefing: more than a short conversation” was perfect. Petra Wolkenstein presented exactly the right mix of well-founded infotainment and training in applicable expertise. Even months later, I still remember the content and it makes it easier for me and my clients to work together on a daily basis.

The workshop “Marketing and Acquisition for Creative Professionals” was a great success. Petra’s competent, goal-oriented way of giving feedback, analysing problems in start-ups precisely and quickly and providing practical examples as comparative values, combined with an interactive, “creative” workshop leadership made the event very exciting and definitely recommendable.

Petra used her wealth of B2B negotiating experience to help our lab companies find ways to grow and share the pie with Arsenal. Based on the relationships they’d developed with the business owners, and the quality of their offers, half the companies reached agreements to enter commercial pilots. That speaks volumes for Petra’s value.
