Dr Gesa Gordon supports organisations where structure and self-organisation meet. Her work ranges from traditional organisational development and process support through change management and evaluation to agile working in hierarchical structures, self-organisation and Holacracy. As a Gestalt organisational consultant, Holacracy practitioner, Professional Scrum Master and trained mediator, she combines an eye for the whole with formats such as Open Space, Art of Hosting and "time to think", in which large groups too get thinking and working. A recurring motif in her consulting is "leading from below".
