Dr Marius Leibold

My purpose is to assist individuals and organizations to achieve new levels of growth, confidence and well-being in our intelligence-connected world. The rise of real-time human and artificial intelligence, combined with an explosion of data and information, make wise new leadership practices essential, while transcending old ones.

The particular focus of my services is Digital Rebirth of business enterprises, executives and their associates. This goes beyond the limited digital efficiency, agility and ‘transformation’ services provided by many consultants. Digital Rebirth enables executives to wisely deal with the impact of the Internet-of-Things (IoT), Big Data and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in real-time.

Traditional business model and industry mindsets are failing to cope with ‘digital transformation’, and my customized services enable ‘smart’ mindsets and successful initiatives of new value creation, value capture and value distribution. Becoming ‘smart‘ benefits repurposing and reframing of organizations, aligning talent and technology networks inside and outside traditional boundaries, and shaping Leadership Bardo – enabling executives to orchestrate the rebirth process of people and organizations.

My background includes:

   - Extensive Experience and Deep Expertise
One-on-one advisory relationships with over 50 chief executives of Major Companies - and working with many business leaders, executive teams, and corporate boards - across a wide range of industries and companies. Deep Expertise is in especially three areas: Digital Rebirth, Growth Strategies, and Renewed Mindsets.

   - Real Independence and World-Class Network
I work with real independence, not beholden to any institution, group or individual. My approach is to work directly and closely with leaders, guiding and pointing them to the right questions, mindsets, options and choices. My work is network-collaborative in my Leading-Edge Network, with Strict Confidentiality.

The Philips Corporation is rebirthing itself from a ‘Consumer Products Supplier’ (lighting, electronics, appliances) into a digital platform company, as a ‘Consumer Lifestyle, Healthcare and Brighter Lives Provider’. Company revenues arise not from selling ‘products’ as such, but from recurring consumer ‘smart networked services’, based on e.g. subscription and maintenance contracts.

The Haier Group Corporation’s rebirth means that, in effect, it does not compete primarily through products and brands any longer, but through digital-services platforms of which ‘smart’ products are just one key part.

Under Armour, Inc., has rebirthed itself from a products-oriented sports apparel company into an experience-oriented platform company of consumer health, fitness and wellness solutions.
