Geigsen is a consulting firm that brings together an expertise in strategy and psychology.
We partner with leaders on their most pressing organization-level issues in a way that keeps strategy and teams truly aligned.
A Manager runs client projects end-to-end. You lead the work plan, the timeline, and day-to-day execution, and you own the client relationship at the project level. You are responsible not just for excellent delivery but for the people delivering it; coaching junior staff, giving real feedback, and building their capabilities rather than simply assigning tasks. You also begin contributing an active voice to firm strategy and future planning. This is the step where the work shifts from producing excellent work yourself to leading and developing others while they do it and starting to shape where the firm goes next.

- Design and facilitate workshops where we lead clients through tough group conversations. Comfortable with presenting and teaching Geigsen's Three Layer approach fluently including Layer 2 work (emotion, psychology, relational dynamics) and helping clients to build that capability themselves.
