We make change stick.
We are initio — a boutique organisational consultancy for strategy, culture, change and large-group formats.




initio is an independent organisational consultancy with more than 30 senior consultants at 9 locations in Germany and Switzerland. Since 2004 we have been supporting mid-sized business, the public sector and non-profits through strategy, culture and change processes — repeatedly recognised as "Top Consultant" and "Beste Berater Deutschlands" (Best Consultants in Germany), with more than 90 reference projects.
You work with the team — not with a name.
30 consultants, 9 locations, 5 partners, 2 managing directors. Whoever starts your project stays with it to the end, even across several years.

Highly professional and motivating delivery — feedback from participants was positive throughout.
"We took away plenty of food for thought and look forward to reaping the fruits."
What we stand for.
We think in impact, not in hours. Every recommendation has to hold up in everyday work.
Organisations are relationships. We work on patterns — and stay until they change.
Methods without a relationship come to nothing. We build trust as the foundation for everything else.
Nine reasons to work with us.
- Senior consulting — you work with experienced people, not with junior teams.
- Impact before activity — measurable change rather than death by PowerPoint.
- Regionally rooted — 9 locations, short distances, genuine proximity.
We publish what we know.
Books and specialist articles by our consultants — substance rather than marketing.
Vision, mission & history.
Since 2004 we have guided organisations through change, in the conviction that strategy only works once culture and people come with it. A small Berlin consultancy has grown into more than 30 senior consultants across 9 locations.
