1: KEYNOTE

"THE GREENER MEAL MOVEMENT": Where Leadership Meets the Living Systems We're Part Of

45-60 minutes + Q&A | 50-500 participants

THE MESSAGE

The most overlooked leadership tool? The meal.

Three times a day, you and your teams make decisions that reveal your organizational operating system:

β†’ Where resources come from  

β†’ How nourishment (or extraction) happens  

β†’ What gets wasted  

β†’ Who's included

This keynote reframes leadership, sustainability, and performance through the leverage point everyone hasβ€”but few use strategically.

WHAT YOUR AUDIENCE LEARNS

β†’ Why traditional performance models extract more than they create  

β†’ How the meal becomes a mirror for organizational culture  

β†’ The pattern Basel working parents navigate (and what it reveals about your systems)  

β†’ Three relationship upgrades every leader needs  

β†’ How to model regenerative performance (at work and home)


IDEAL FOR

β†’ Leadership conferences and all-hands meetings  

β†’ ESG and sustainability summits  

β†’ People & Culture and DEI events  

β†’ Working parent ERGs and networks  

β†’ Industry conferences (pharma, finance, life sciences)


WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT

This is not:

❌ A sustainability lecture (no guilt, no alarm)  

❌ A wellness talk (not about self-care)  

❌ A parenting session (it's leadership infrastructure)

This is:

βœ“ Systems thinking made tangible  

βœ“ Emotional resonance without sentimentality  

βœ“ Immediately applicable frameworks  

βœ“ Story-driven, research-backed  

βœ“ Designed for high-performing, time-scarce leaders


2: WORKSHOP

"NOURISHED LEADERSHIP": Designing Regenerative Development in Your Team

90-120 minutes | 12-30+ participants | Interactive & Co-Creative

THE EXPERIENCE

Your team doesn't just hear about regenerative leadershipβ€”they design their first shift together.

In 90-120 minutes, participants:

β†’ Map their current operating system (energy flows, resource relationships, decision patterns)  

β†’ Identify where extraction is costing capacity  

β†’ Use the Regenerative Shift Canvas to design one concrete intervention  

β†’ Leave with a 30-day experiment and clear ownership

This is not theory. This is co-created infrastructure. because leadership is collective. 

IDEAL FOR

β†’ Leadership teams (8-30+ people)  

β†’ Senior management offsites  

β†’ High-potential cohorts and succession tracks  

β†’ Department strategy sessions  

β†’ Working parent ERGs wanting actionable frameworks


OUTCOMES

βœ“ Shared language for regenerative performance  

βœ“ One designed shift each team can test in 30 days  

βœ“ Experiential understanding of nourishment as systems design  

βœ“ Team cohesion and alignment  

βœ“ Clarity on whether deeper work (offsite) is the right next step


3:THE MENTORING CONTAINER

FOR SUCCESSION-TRACK LEADERS 1:1 Executive Mentoring

You're being groomed for VP, Director, or C-suite.  

You're a working parent in Basel.

The pace is unsustainableβ€”but opting out isn't the answer.

You need integration strategy, not balance platitudes.

THE PATTERN I SEE

Mainly senior women in your organization:

β†’ Leave for "lifestyle" reasons  

β†’ Reduce to 80% and plateau  

β†’ Stay but burn out silently  

β†’ Opt out of stretch assignments (because they know the cost)

Senior men with children:

β†’ Rarely take paternity leave beyond the legal minimum  

β†’ Delegate family logistics to partners  

β†’ Advance faster but model extraction for their own children

You want to advanceβ€”but not like that.


You don't need:

❌ Another productivity framework  

❌ Work-life "balance" advice from someone without children  

❌ Executive coaching that ignores family systems  

❌ Guilt about "having it all"

You need:

βœ“ Strategic thinking on sustainable advancement  

βœ“ Integration architecture (household + career as one system)  

βœ“ Language to legitimize nourishment as leadership capital  

βœ“ Basel-specific navigation (childcare, culture, organizational norms)  

βœ“ Peer-level thinking partnership from someone who's lived this

You need a community who understands:

β†’ Behavioral systems (not just business strategy)  

β†’ Basel's reality (not generic "expat life")  

β†’ Regenerative performance (not optimization)  

β†’ What it's like to be in your exact seat


WHAT YOU GET in 6-MONTH EXECUTIVE MENTORING for succession :

β†’ Bi-weekly 60-min sessions (12 sessions total over 6 months)  

β†’ Unlimited email/voice memo support between sessions  

β†’ Regenerative development frameworks tailored to your context  

β†’ Strategic career navigation within Basel organizational culture  

β†’ Household systems design (so family supports your advancement)  

β†’ Optional: Access to The Lab peer circle!

All sessions confidential. Virtual or in-person (Basel).


THE FOCUS AREAS

MONTHS 1-2: DIAGNOSTIC & FOUNDATION

β†’ Energy audit: Where is capacity being extracted vs. built?  

β†’ Career trajectory mapping within your org's culture  

β†’ Current household system analysis (what's working, what's not)  

β†’ Basel-specific constraints and opportunities  

β†’ What's actually sustainable for YOU (not generic best practices)  

β†’ Your leadership identity: Who are you becoming?

MONTHS 3-4: STRATEGIC DESIGN

β†’ Regenerative performance architecture for your specific role  

β†’ Household systems redesign (reduce cognitive load, increase support)  

β†’ Succession readiness positioning (language, visibility, stretch assignments)  

β†’ Navigating organizational politics as integrative leader  

β†’ Basel childcare optimization insights (Tagesstruktur, networks, backup systems)  

β†’ Circular economy translated to your household to support your living system

MONTHS 5-6: INTEGRATION & MOMENTUM

β†’ Organizational dynamics navigation (as regenerative leader)  

β†’ Modeling for your children AND your team (what they're learning from watching you)  

β†’ Building your next-stage leadership narrative (for promotion conversations)  

β†’ Peer/sponsor relationship strategy  

β†’ Sustaining practice post-mentoring  

β†’ Defining your next 3-5 year arc


WHO THIS IS FOR

You should apply if:

βœ“ You're in a succession pipeline (VP, Director, or C-suite track)  

βœ“ You're a working parent in Basel or Basel region  

βœ“ You work in life sciences, pharma, finance, or international organizations  

βœ“ You refuse to choose between advancement and presence  

βœ“ You want evidence-based strategy, not inspirational platitudes  

βœ“ You're ready to redesign your operating system, not just manage it better

This is NOT for:

βœ— People seeking quick fixes  

βœ— Leaders not actually in succession pipelines (this is targeted support)  

βœ— Anyone looking for traditional career coaching (without life integration)  

βœ— People who want to be told what to do (this is co-creative design)


By application only! Corporate sponsorships are welcome!

I limit my mentoring practice to 10 concurrent clients to ensure depth and responsiveness per year.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Can my organization sponsor this?

Yes. Many Basel companies cover this through professional development budgets, especially for succession-track leaders. Andrea can provide proposal language and invoicing directly to your organization.

What if I'm not sure I'm "succession track"?

If your organization has identified you for promotion within 2-5 years, if you're in a high-potential program, or if you're being groomed for senior leadershipβ€”you qualify. When in doubt, ask during the exploratory call.

Do sessions have to be in Basel?

No. Sessions can be virtual (Teams) or in-person in Basel. Most clients do a mix based on schedules.

What if my partner also needs support?

Andrea occasionally works with leadership couples (both in succession tracks). This requires a different structure. Inquire during exploratory call.

What happens after 6 months?

Some clients extend for another 6 months (at a continuation rate). Others transition to quarterly check-ins. Many join The Lab for ongoing peer support.

Is this confidential?

Yes. All sessions are confidential unless you specifically request Andrea provide feedback to your organization (some clients do this for promotion readiness assessments).
