Forms of cooperation
I work with leaders and organizations in various ways, depending on the situation, needs, and pace. Below are some of the ways in which collaboration typically takes shape.
Learning program for managers
When managers face a daily routine characterized by change and uncertainty, it can be valuable to step out of operations and into a shared learning space.
I design and facilitate learning programs where managers:
examines their leadership in practice
works with specific dilemmas from everyday life
learning together through reflection, dialogue, and shared exploration
The courses are based on the reality of the managers and are always adapted to the context, group, and challenges.
They can range from a few days to longer periods of time.
Development process for teams
When teams need to strengthen collaboration, accountability, and shared direction in a complex everyday environment, I work with development processes based on the team's practices.
Here, the focus is on:
how the team works together on a daily basis
how expectations, roles, and responsibilities become clearer
how collaboration and learning can be developed over time
Team development is always viewed in the context of the managerial and organizational context of which the team is a part.
Joint development program for managers and teams
In many organizations, it makes sense to work with leadership and collaboration simultaneously—in shared spaces where both leaders and employees are involved.
I work with development processes where managers and teams together:
working with direction, collaboration, and practice
creates a common language and understanding of what is at stake
examines how leadership and collaboration are linked in everyday life
The courses can take the form of comprehensive development processes, shared learning spaces, or combinations of leadership and team courses—always based on the specific reality of the organization.
What others say
The group developed to encompass creative courage, optimism, and a clear desire to break with a long period characterized by a lack of direction and inspiration.
Along the way, it was remarkable how Thomas managed to adapt his communication and tone to the specific group. His attention to the balance between challenging the group and at the same time creating space for conversations about spontaneous topics created great respect for his way of facilitating – with a clear focus on getting the best out of the process.

"We collaborated with Thomas to design and facilitate HIT Accelerator boot camps because he has strong knowledge of innovation and lean startup processes, excellent communication and facilitation skills, and a clear ability to 'read the room'. We have always felt in safe hands with Thomas as the host of the courses and have greatly appreciated his professionalism and ease of collaboration."

"The process we initiated together with Thomas Reibke has been extremely valuable in strengthening our leaders and making them clear role models and cultural ambassadors. The leaders have been given concrete tools and a better understanding of how they can maintain our culture and values—which is crucial for us as we grow and develop as quickly as we do."
