Luise Marie Strasser

Principal, Head of Organisational Change Management
Horváth 

 

Luise Strasser is Principal at Horváth and responsible for Organisational Change Management. She focuses on one thing above all else: ensuring that any transformational change (including the once triggered by AI-adaptation) is not only planned but also truly put into practice. Especially when teams and leaders implement new ways of working with AI, attitudes need to be questioned and behaviors are reimagined. Whether it’s the implementation of a new digital agenda, a reorganization due to human-agent splits, or ambitious efficiency goals triggered by AI, she guides transformation initiatives and the top management with a clear approach, drawing on extensive experience from over ten years of change project work—and the conviction that genuine technological progress can only succeed if it alters behavior.
