Collaboration that is light and lively
OrgIQ makes visible what is holding you back – and shows you how to get back into the flow as a team, organization or community.
And it stays there – for years and decades.
Zusammenarbeit, die leicht und lebendig ist
OrgIQ macht sichtbar, was euch bremst – und zeigt, wie ihr als Team, Organisation oder Gemeinschaft wieder in den Flow kommt.
Und da bleibt – für Jahre und Jahrzehnte.
Do you know meetings that drain your energy? Conflicts that remain unspoken? Structures that block more than they support? People who feel tired – even though they are actually full of ideas?
Many teams and organizations lose strength because invisible patterns are at work: Misunderstandings, power games, rigid processes. Instead of being able to flourish, people invest their energy in working against each other.
Imagine …
… your team gets along flawlessly.
… conflicts are resolved before they escalate.
… support structures instead of burdening them.
… you have fun creating together again.
This is what people want – whether in a company, a family, a school, a party, an association or a church.
When blockages become visible, everything changes:
- Energy starts flowing back into creation.
- Collaboration feels effortless.
- People contribute their strengths instead of holding back.
- Organizations become more successful – and at the same time more human.
Studies and practical experience show: Teams that actively work on their collaboration are significantly more productive, more creative and healthier.
OrgIQ is your navigation system for living organizations. It makes invisible patterns visible – and opens up new paths:
- Relationships: Where trust grows – and where misunderstandings arise.
- Structures: Where processes support – and where they block.
- Clarity: What you really need to work together effectively.
This allows you as a team, company or community to direct the energy where it belongs: into design.

The development of OrgIQ was sponsored. Thank you for that. The idea behind OrgIQ was to summarize, record and make accessible things (basic principles) that work. In other words, “open source by design”. The collection and development took 20 years, the writing down took 2 years.
Die Entwicklung von OrgIQ wurde gesponsort. Danke dafür. Die Idee hinter OrgIQ war es, dass wir Dinge (Grundprinzipien) die funktionieren, zusammenfassen, festhalten und zugänglich machen. Also “Open Source by Design”. Die Sammlung und Entwicklung dauerte 20 Jahre, das Aufschreiben 2 Jahre.

We are humans, but in school and at work, we are expected to function like machines. This costs us what makes us special: psychological safety, enthusiasm, collaboration, motivation, loyalty, creativity, and connection.
Wir sind Menschen, doch in Schule und Beruf sollen wir wie Maschinen funktionieren. Dabei verlieren wir das, was uns besonders macht: psychologische Sicherheit, Begeisterung, Zusammenarbeit, Motivation, Loyalität, Kreativität und Zusammenhalt.
We have all the knowledge to build great, human-centered systems and organizations: cybernetics, sociology, neurology, psychology, and the management theories of pioneers like Deming, Drucker, and those who followed.
Wir haben das gesamte Wissen, um großartige, menschenzentrierte Systeme und Organisationen zu gestalten: Kybernetik, Soziologie, Neurologie, Psychologie und die Managementtheorien von Pionieren wie Deming, Drucker und all ihren Nachfolgern.

Not all at once, but over a few years of consistently working on collaboration. These are the results from the “potato field” once collaborative thinking has been internalized.
Nicht alles auf einmal, sondern über einige Jahre hinweg, in denen wir konsequent an der Zusammenarbeit arbeiten. Das sind die Ergebnisse vom „Kartoffelacker“, wenn das kollaborative Denken verinnerlicht ist.
We promise nothing that we haven’t experienced ourselves – from both sides: the leadership perspective and the expert perspective.
Wir versprechen nichts, was wir nicht selbst erlebt haben – von beiden Seiten: der Führungs- und der Fachkraftperspektive.

Try the Leadership ReDefined GPT (you need to be paying ChatGPT user, to access GPTs); opens in new tab. It’s not as good as an OrgIQ expert, but in many cases already helpful. Gives context and enhances perspective.
Disclaimer: OrgIQ itself is fully free. But the application will create costs, because it means change. And most of the time a changed perspective, which means an enhanced worldview.
While everyone can learn this over time, it might be useful to speed up the process, this is why we offer related services. They are related, but provided via independent supporters, including me, as the author.
Some thoughts and articles …
Wan’t to Take Action? Let’s Go.
How does it work? Whether alone or with support, first comes the medical history and diagnosis. Just as we would expect from our doctor. After all, how much trust would we have in someone who suggests a therapy without having heard and examined us?
Everything else is derived from the diagnosis. OrgIQ is not about methods. The basic building blocks are 20+ Beliefs. And each belief is trivial and plausible. They are the key to building healthy and fit systems (leadership), and the guide to develop the Deep Soft Skills (DSS).
Our collaboration model has 8 dimensions, which then apply the basic building blocks in a targeted manner. So you build humanity (social intelligence) into the system. But always in your uniqueness. If you do this as a founder or CEO, you are building your DNA into the organization. The reason why people follow you becomes part of the system without it being slowed down by your finiteness. And you remain the heart of the system, even if you are no longer there.
