Better relationships.
Better business.
Around 70% of initiatives fail – not because strategy was wrong, but because human dynamics were underestimated. We work where transformation becomes real: in relationships, leadership and human connection – in times of AI, constant change and growing complexity.
Laurien is an international boutique management consultancy specialising in Relational Intelligence, Strategic Well-Being and Modern Leadership.
We work with organisations and executives in high-stakes, high-complexity environments – where pressure is real, ambiguity is constant, and leadership quality quietly determines everything that follows.
Great, you're here.
In a world shaped by AI, permanent change and rising complexity, traditional leadership models are reaching their limits.
Not because leaders lack intelligence or ambition – but because relationships have become the real performance driver.
At the heart of our work lies a simple, often overlooked truth: Leadership is relational work. Culture, too, is a relational construct.
New Leadership
Relational quality
And yet, surprisingly few organisations systematically examine what it actually takes to build resilient relationships.
The quality of these relationships is a decisive factor in decision-making, trust, execution quality and sustainable performance – and ultimately, in the quality of working life.

THE HUMAN PERFORMANCE GAP
Let's be direct
Around 70% of transformation initiatives fail – not because the strategy was wrong, but because human dynamics were underestimated.
AI accelerates execution. What determines impact is how decisions are made, carried and owned under pressure. Most organisations invest heavily in tools, systems and new operating models. What remains unclear is how leadership and collaboration actually need to change.

It gets interesting
This is where organisations and leadership are heading - certainly more towards training and expanding human skills as a key business factor.
Human dynamics, relational clarity and decision quality are shaping performance, resilience and future readiness - right now.
The question is not if this will matter. It’s where you choose to sit. In the backseat - reacting when pressure forces change? Or in the driver’s seat - shaping how work, leadership and culture evolve?
