Confidential briefing
Confidence: Growing
Jonas
Prepared for your Operating Model Change Discovery
What stands out
Almost everything Jonas chooses to talk about circles back to mission. Specifically: repeatedly prioritises meaningful retail impact.
That reads directly onto your side, where focused on improving outcomes in b2b software.
Recommended next step
Meet Jonas
Suggested first conversation:
- How the work here connects to something they'd care about.
- How decisions get made, and where they get written down.
- What stage this organisation is honestly at right now.
You've not met before.
What we've learned
Mission
Repeatedly prioritises meaningful retail impact — and the examples behind it were about decisions, not responsibilities.
Heard across separate conversations months apart, described the same way each time.
Working style
Jonas keeps returning to this without being asked: values written decisions over standing meetings.
Raised unprompted more than once, with different examples behind it.
Environment
Drawn to funded organisations with real customers already. It has shaped what Jonas has moved towards, not just what they say.
Revisited deliberately, and Jonas did not soften it.
Why we're confident
Mission has been consistent from the start. We have heard less about working style, so treat that part as unfinished.
- Mission, working style and environment each read the same way from Jonas's side and from yours, separately.
No prior relationship — the reasoning carries this on its own.
Worth discussing first
- How the work here connects to something they'd care about.
- How decisions get made, and where they get written down.
- What stage this organisation is honestly at right now.
- What ownership actually looks like inside your delivery teams.
- What would make the first year successful here.
Context
Where they are today
Jonas is currently a PMO Lead, based in Berlin, Germany. Their employer is theirs to share once you've both agreed to talk.
Where they've operated
Mostly retail, financial services and healthcare.
Jonas has moved from Business Change Lead to PMO Lead over 4 years — widening responsibility rather than lateral moves. Not looking, but would take the right conversation. Status: not yet connected.
