Anna Wohlesser

evolutionary catalyst

Anna works at the intersection of organizational design, cultural development, and leadership. She supports organizations and leadership teams through profound change processes. Her focus: shaping effective collaboration in a world that keeps on turning. Enabling transformation—with clarity, empathy, and depth.

What sets her apart? The ability to address difficult topics in a way that preserves everyone’s dignity—enabling people to get to the root of things together rather than staying at the surface. Because real transformation begins where we find the courage to take a closer look.

For over ten years, Anna has worked with a wide range of organizations—from government ministries to grassroots circus collectives, from tech startups to the steel industry. This diversity has sharpened her sense for systemic interconnections—and deepened her understanding of what people truly need to collaborate well.

Questions that guide her work include:

  • What does successful collaboration require—beyond tools and methods?
  • How does genuine transformation happen—beyond change management?
  • How can organizations be effective and human at the same time in a complex world?

What are the focal points of your work at dwarfs and Giants?

  • Whole-system organizational transformation—involving all levels, from the shop floor to the executive suite
  • Sparring and coaching for leaders and executive teams
  • New forms of collaboration and organizing—that empower people and increase adaptability

The quality of our work comes from the quality of our relationships.

Marlow Hotchkiss

This quote captures what matters most to me: not quick fixes, but lasting change—rooted in genuine relationships, honest dialogue, and shared responsibility.
