Picture this: You’re standing at a literal intersection, looking at paths leading in different directions. Each path holds promise but also uncertainty. Which one do you take?
Now imagine that this intersection is more than a metaphor—it’s a space where diverse ideas, disciplines, and experiences converge to create something bold, new, and transformative.
Welcome to At Intersections LAB, a place where:
Purpose fuels strategy
Creativity sparks innovation
Transformation builds resilience
This isn’t just another strategy session or corporate retreat. It’s a deep dive into reshaping how you think, plan, and execute, set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Austrian Alps.

1. Why At Intersections?
Most organizations operate in silos - strategy in one corner, creativity in another, and well-being as an afterthought. But the most powerful breakthroughs happen at the intersections - where seemingly separate disciplines collide and evolve into something greater.
At Intersections is about breaking down these barriers to create a space where:
Purpose drives action – ensuring that your vision is clear and strategy is aligned.
Creativity fuels innovation – generating new ideas and turning them into reality.
Transformation builds resilience – embedding long-term adaptability into your organization.
I built this concept based on years of experience across continents, industries, and disciplines. I’ve been a strategic consultant, policy analyst, communications expert, coach, and even a ballet dancer and massage therapist (yes, really!).
What I’ve learned?
🚀 The best solutions don’t come from following a single path—they emerge when we stand at intersections, embrace diverse perspectives, and challenge the status quo.

2. What Makes At Intersections LAB Unique?
Imagine this: You and your team step away from the daily grind and into the welcoming atmosphere of Apart House Elsa, nestled near the Hintertux Glacier. Mornings start with fresh mountain air—a brisk walk or even a few hours of skiing. Then it’s down to work, diving into structured sessions that challenge your assumptions and stretch your thinking. Afternoons might involve a hike, a relaxing dip in the pool, or sweating out stress in the sauna. Evenings? Time for meaningful team conversations about well-being or quiet reflection.
Throughout your stay, we blend strategy with creativity, using tools like:
Scenario Planning – to prepare for uncertainty and shape the future.
Design Thinking – to spark breakthrough ideas and user-centered solutions.
Business Diplomacy & Influence Strategies – to navigate complex relationships.
The result? A holistic experience where you don’t just talk about change - you create it.

3. Who Is It For?
The At Intersections LAB is designed for:
Start-up founders & entrepreneurs who juggle strategy, execution, and team dynamics—seeking clarity, direction, and balance.
Small business owners & leadership teams looking to step away from daily operations to focus on strategy, innovation, and resilience.
Purpose-driven organizations & impact leaders ready to challenge the status quo, rethink their approach, and build for long-term impact.
🌍 An Inclusive Space for Diverse Voices
As someone who has lived across multiple countries and is part of the LGBTQ+ community, I know that diverse perspectives make solutions stronger. This is a safe, welcoming space where all ideas are valued, and all voices are heard.
4. Why It Works
Let’s be honest—most strategy sessions are uninspiring.
🚫 Endless PowerPoints.
🚫 Fluorescent-lit conference rooms.
🚫 Generic takeaways that never lead to action.
At Intersections LAB flips this script.
Here, you don’t just talk about what could be—you actively:
✅ Clarify your purpose.
✅ Develop a strategy.
✅ Create innovative solutions.
✅ Design an actionable transformation plan.
✅ Build resilience to sustain change.
By combining structured strategic thinking with the revitalizing power of nature and well-being, this experience allows clarity and energy to emerge naturally.
When you leave, it won’t be with a pile of unread notes—it will be with a clear plan, fresh energy, and a renewed sense of purpose.
5. A Personal Invitation
If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or simply curious about what’s possible, consider this your invitation to step away, think bigger, and recharge.
Whether you’re:
🚀 A start-up founder navigating uncertainty
🎯 A business leader refining your strategy
💡 A team searching for fresh ideas and clarity
At Intersections LAB is where your next breakthrough begins.
Are you ready? Let’s create something extraordinary, together.
