How we work

Caroline Läufer, LCI Consulting

Our process

How we work: the CROSS framework

Our work is based on the CROSS framework. It’s how we create lasting change and make sure you don’t slip back into old patterns.

C

Characterize

We make the current reality visible: together, we uncover the situation, symptoms, patterns, sources of friction, strengths and key connections.

R

Reflect

We understand what lies beneath: together, we explore and make sense of root causes, connections and dynamics.

O

Organize

We create clarity on the biggest levers for change: What should stay? What needs to change? What takes priority? And how should the organization work going forward?

S

Start

We put decisions into action: together, we introduce new structures, responsibilities, processes and ways of working – and test them in everyday business.

S

Standardize

We make change the new normal: the new way of working is reinforced, built into processes and responsibilities, and anchored so firmly that it works without ongoing outside support.

My experience working with Caroline Läufer

Working with Caroline Läufer was incredibly rewarding for my team and me. She took a noticeable load off my shoulders as a manager by handling the administrative work, and her outside analysis gave us valuable, objective feedback.

Caroline quickly built trust, and her appreciative communication style created a positive working atmosphere. In one-on-one conversations, she helped my team members recognize their strengths and talents, understand specific needs and improve how we work together as a team.

Thanks to her structured analysis and recommendations, the team gained a clear view of its own strengths and benefited from strategies for strength-based task allocation. Her work significantly improved collaboration and motivation and was instrumental in our continued development.

I enjoyed a lot working with you and could see an incredible progress during your stay.
Just today we had a SOPs related discussion and I need to go back to a Wave C file you put together regarding priorization that was – I remember – incredibly useful.

Wishing you really all the best for your future.
Any company hiring you will find a treasure. 😊
