About
Sonja Karbon
Founder and Managing Director KARBON Consulting GmbH

Having "grown up" professionally in the social and educational sector, I was able to learn to use resources efficiently and still stay in touch with people. However, I was strongly influenced by the insight that systems affect people and vice versa. This phenomenon is still a focus of my work today, i.e. to understand structures and the culture of companies as well as to make the needs and potentials of individuals visible in order to achieve a positive effect on the interdependence of this connection - potential transformation.
With my numerous stays abroad, mainly in Southeast Asia, I was able to pursue my interest in different cultures. This school of life, which cannot be found in instruction manuals or academic degrees, forms the basis for my focus on interculturality, communication and diversity, in order to support constructive cooperation in projects, teams or organisations - change of perspectives.
In addition, the study of International Health and Social Management has sharpened my awareness of global challenges and societal contexts. Fast-growing markets, scarce resources, monetary economic systems and increasing pressure on the players need new and, above all, courageous approaches. Agenda 2030 and the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals are part of my view of sustainability. I see these goals as pointing the way forward, so that I can use them to develop options for action -Change in values. Holistic Nature. Sustainability.
Above all, the strategies of nature fascinate me and can be used for different phases of development within a process. The principle of mixed cropping, which increases the resilience of each individual plant, the positive selection in seed production to obtain the best possible variety, or the network of trees and their well thought-out communication system are only excerpts of phenomena that never cease to amaze me. The intelligence of nature is my source for infinite learning and also shows how lively learning processes can be designed - Awareness. Meaningful. Education.
