The Timmermann Service Lines

 

 Timmermann

With a wealth of experience in leading companies worldwide, Michael Timmermann has witnessed firsthand the meticulous application of the consulting craft. However, as a psychologist, he identified a crucial aspect that was lacking: the ability to change attitudes and behavior. Recognizing the significant impact this has on business performance indicators and the success of transformations, Michael realized that while the importance of change is acknowledged in strategy consultancies, the ability to truly make a lasting impact is limited, often hindered by their own culture. When he took over the change practice of a consultant network, Michael found himself faced with the challenge of working in a less analytically clean and structured manner. Drawing upon his entrepreneurial experience, he decided to bring his vision of holistic consulting to life, leveraging the full potential of organizations and ensuring sustainable and effective transformations through his expertise in business and change work.

Timmermann Change Communication

"As someone with a creative spirit, my ultimate goal was to create something extraordinary, impact lives, and make a meaningful difference."
"Oh, come on now, stop complaining. You've reached the pinnacle of success."
That statement held true. He had managed prominent advertising agencies, crafted international campaigns, and earned prestigious accolades. However, there was one burning question on his mind: What was it all for? The answer emerged when Sepp Baumeister noticed Timmermann's search for communication professionals. He chose to channel his creative potential towards helping people transform, rather than simply selling to them.
Our mission is to ignite a spark of change within individuals. While advertising agencies focus on advertising, true impactful communication is the realm of storytellers. They weave narratives that inspire people to embrace transformation. And thus, Timmermann Change Communication was born.  

Timmermann Architecture & Design

If you are committed to embracing the concept of New Work and aspire to create an office that not only offers employees a functional workspace but also nurtures, motivates, and invigorates them in their work, then you require the support of a specialized architectural firm with a team of architects, New Work experts, and change experts. We are delighted to accompany you throughout the entire process, starting from the design phase to the final implementation. By choosing our unique team, you will benefit from our in-depth knowledge of current trends, our profound understanding of organizational culture, and our extensive experience in developing and executing innovative spatial concepts.

Timmermann Digital

"How can we effectively reach our extensive audience?" "Is it possible to achieve significant change with limited resources?" "Our company is eager to embrace digital transformation. Can you assist us in this endeavor?"
These were the recurring questions posed by our clients, seeking cost-effective solutions with widespread impact. While others may have doubted the feasibility of scaling change, we saw it as a challenge to overcome. After months of brainstorming, a groundbreaking idea emerged: a smartphone-based change app that delivers profound knowledge in a simple and impactful manner. Thus, the Timmermann ChApp was born.
In addition to the transformative ChApp, Timmermann Digital offers a range of other digital change services, including internal organizational change podcasts, videos, and intranet content.

Timmermann Academy

Change processes are learning processes. That's why every change process requires a certain amount of training. We use our methodological and content-related competencies to create customized in-house training programs for our clients - even without a change process, i.e. standalone. The topics are as diverse as our clients, e.g. agility, leadership, teamwork, change, communication or innovation.

Individuals can also take part in our Change Management Professional course "Living Change". 

Timmermann Social

At Timmermann Social, we harness our extensive expertise and years of experience to drive impactful change and foster positive transformation for the betterment of humanity.

When asked about his greatest passion within our range of services, our founder Michael Timmermann passionately expresses his unwavering dedication to Timmermann Social, emphasizing his willingness to devote all his time to its endeavors (if only he could!). This particular service line is deeply committed to bringing together influential stakeholders and promoting collaboration on projects aimed at addressing the universal challenges that affect us all.

Our mission statement

Why we do it:

 „To help humanity change for the better.“ 

As Steve Jobs famously said, "It is the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world who actually do." We firmly believe that for this world to truly change, the people in it must change too. Our mission is to inspire individuals to engage with one another in a direct and appreciative manner, fostering personal growth and taking responsibility to make a positive impact. Our goal is not just to feel good, but to cultivate an environment where treating each other with kindness and respect leads to exceptional results, even within a corporate setting.

How we do it:

„With bright minds and open hearts.“

Outstanding change management necessitates a blend of intelligence and compassion. It entails skilfully crafting strategies, programs, and concepts while also possessing the social competence and enthusiasm to engage with individuals and drive transformation. This is our daily pursuit.

In our pursuit of excellence in leadership and teamwork, we embrace the fact that mistakes happen. What sets us apart is our commitment to addressing them openly and dedicating ourselves to resolving them with utmost diligence. However, this unwavering focus on improvement can sometimes lead to misunderstandings. Some may expect us to be flawless and never falter, always upholding our values without error. The truth is, our relentless dedication to self-improvement may make it seem like we make more mistakes than other organizations, but in reality, we are thriving. It is important to remember that perfection is an unattainable goal, but our continuous efforts to learn and grow allow us to come close.

We work on our corporate culture intensively and are a transformational learning community. This means we support each other's learning. In concrete terms, you might imagine it like this:

  • We give each other appreciative direct feedback on a daily basis as a gift - also from the bottom up
  • Everyone conducts a detailed systematic development dialogue with their supervisor at least every 6 months. In between, regular development discussions take place
  • We support our team to work on their attitude and behavioral issues in the form of optional coaching processes
  • We strive for psychological safety in the team, as fear restricts the scope for action and slows down learning
  • We place a lot of value on assuming positive things about each other and dealing with each other in an appreciative and cordial manner
  • Authenticity shines through in the way our team members openly express their true emotions and inner thoughts. This level of vulnerability is only achievable because of the strong bonds we share, built on trust and the recognition of our influence as role models for one another
  • We also pay attention to the small things with which we inspire and motivate each other, stimulate each other intellectually and respond to each other individually
  • The antithesis of our target culture is a purely transactional exchange relationship to maximize our own benefit to the detriment of the other person.

Because we embody this culture ourselves, we have the genuine ability to incorporate it seamlessly into our client projects.

What we do:

„We make change easy - with you."

Is change really easy? The truth is, it can be quite challenging. However, we are here to support and guide you every step of the way, making the process as smooth and effortless as possible.

 Designing change of any kind, especially attitudes and behavior, is our core competence. We try to bring together, expand, share and use everything the world has to offer in terms of knowledge and experience on the subject.

Ultimately, it is the power of our clients themselves that drives change - every single individual has the ability to transform. That's why we believe in working hand in hand with our clients, fostering a collaborative approach. We understand that simply delivering change doesn't produce lasting results. True change requires a personal commitment to growth and the willingness to address our own mistakes and weaknesses. It's only when we take our journey seriously, yet approach it with a sense of humor, that we unlock the energy and openness needed for successful transformation.

Genuine transformation can be exhausting, requiring a deep understanding of your own shortcomings and a commitment to personal growth. However, true success lies in the ability to infuse seriousness with humor. Our most successful change processes occur when individuals are both earnest about their own growth and open to the power of laughter. This unique synergy of energy and openness naturally unfolds over time, paving the way for remarkable transformations.
