PERSONALITY
NEVER STOP. NEVER HESITATE. AND ON.
History was made in the year 1985. Sir Richard Branson adds yet another venture to his brand introducing Virgin Holidays, NASA launches the orbiter Atlantis for the first time into space with the purpose of a top secret mission, and Phil Collins takes over the lead of the album charts with No Jacket Required. Eon Productions releases Bond 14 - A View To A Kill - featuring Sir Roger Moore to the theatres, Bob Geldof's music project peaks in the Live Aid concerts supported through countless other famous artists, fighting famine in Ethopia, and Alexey Pajitnov
writes thecode for the cult video game Tetris. Garri Kasparov becomes the youngest World Chess Champion in history, the band a-ha releases Take On Me, becoming almost instantly a number one hit in thirty-six countries, and Jean-Louis Michel with Robert Ballard discover the wreck of the Titanic. The Bobbysocks win the thirtieth edition of the Grand Prix d'Eurovision De La Chanson for Norway with the song La Dette Swinge, Commodore introduces the Amiga and yeah, Ben is born. What a year. Not only in the world of Entertainment.
OFFICE
HEADQUARTERS, WORKSTATION & FIELD
My HEADQUARTERS are based in the city of Freiburg im Breisgau, in the South-West of Germany. Not my professional life guided me home to the place I once left to kick-off my career though. Much more private reasons auto-piloted me back to my HOMELAND.
The HQs contain my WORKSTATION. This is where I take care of the daily business and communication. Activities such as researching and writing, as well as further eduction programs take place here too. Serving as BASE from where I coordinate and plan missions and assignments in field-ops, I prepare all my related traveling there. Today, work-related communication as pivotal element within globalization still directs a lot of
international business from domestic labor to more remote and cross-border challenges, requiring an increased level of readiness from professionals to travel around the globe.
Understanding this imperative, I developed a range of strategies and tactics in TRAVEL OPS in order to run Com and Tasks from all over the world to face the next challenge no matter where on earth. Ensuring both, some permanent global communication and a constant operational dynamic availability around the world through the MOBILE OFFICE I put myself into a competitive edge position within the contested hospitality, tourism and entertainment market.

TESTIMONIAL
“BEN HAS A GREAT FOUNDATION OF KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE. HE IS HIGHLY MOTIVATED AND HAS A KEEN DESIRE TO CONTINUE LEARNING THROUGH FURTHER EXPERIENCE"
THANKS
It's just good business.
Still, a few times my career would later benefit from valuable support.
I want to thank all those individuals who were
of massive and sometimes even unsolicited help.
Without a doubt they made a significant difference
towards my professional life without owing me.
Those are my stars worth remembering.
