Developing regenerative organizations that are economically successful and truly alive

I support business owners and leadership teams in developing their organizations so they can remain economically successful while also becoming regenerative — as places where people can work in healthy ways and where a sustainable future can emerge.

Over time, many organizations experience increasing complexity. Decisions become more demanding, structures that once worked well no longer fit their current reality, and responsibility concentrates on just a few shoulders. Alignment efforts increase, and what once felt easy becomes increasingly effortful.

Especially in such phases, organizations benefit from conscious development — creating ways of working that are sustainably viable and that generate energy rather than deplete it.

I support you in evolving leadership, collaboration, and organizational structures in ways that create clarity, distribute responsibility meaningfully, and enable your organization to grow in a healthy and sustainable way.

My work combines more than 25 years of experience in systemic organizational development with a regenerative perspective: exploring how organizations can be designed not merely to function, but to remain alive, effective, and future-ready — while contributing to a more sustainable world.

Currently, my services can be funded up to 80% through the German INQA Coaching program for small and medium-sized enterprises.

Schirin is a great facilitator and I can definitely recommend working with her. At Testbirds, we strongly believe in self-leadership and self-managing organizations. Shirin embodies these principles and has plenty of knowledge to share around topics of organizational development, company strategy and interpersonal communication. We've invited Schirin to facilitate two workshops with our leadership team already and would be happy to continue working together in the future.

Stefan Zbinden, Head of Power Electronics/Controllers, TDK Elektronics

Schirin hat eine besonders ruhige und zurücknehmende Art. Mit gezielten Fragen und ihrer starken Präsenz begleitet Sie dich durch deinen eigenen Prozess. Die Gespräche sind ungezwungen, als ob du mit deinem besten Kumpel sprichst. Für mich waren die Sitzungen mit Schirin sehr hilfreich.

Raymond Mulry, Sales Ireland, Acting on behalf of TDK UK Limited

My coaching sessions with Schirin were always something I looked forward too. Her calming nature meant I came away feeling relaxed with a new sense of direction whether it be work or personal related. The attention given to your story allows her to pose some interesting and searching questions which lead you to new paths in life. Schirin is a great coach and a nice person to boot.

Anita Budenszki, Manager Logistics Operation, TDK Europe GmbH

Schirin gave me insight into areas of my skills which I`ve never explored before. I felt my confidence rise throughout the day.
