Dr Fischer-Hellmann has been working as an independent consultant and seminar leader/trainer in the IT sector since 1994, covering a range of specialist topics.
Through project assignments within various companies, many of which lasted several years, he gained insights extending beyond IT into organisational structures, decision-making processes, and their effects both within and outside companies.
For his doctoral dissertation, in which he developed an innovative method for automated compliance checking of business processes, Dr Fischer-Hellmann received an award from the German Convention of Computer Science Faculties (Fachbereichstag Informatik, FBTI) in 2010. The award recognised the best dissertation submitted from a cooperative doctoral programme in the period 2007–2009. Further information.

Over several years, he supervised doctoral candidates and led a doctoral seminar as part of a teaching appointment at Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences. Combined with extensive further training in seminar leadership and coaching, this experience enabled him to develop his skills as a seminar leader and trainer and eventually extend his work into coaching.
Dr Fischer-Hellmann is author of a book and numerous international publications. His broad expertise has enriched major companies such as Deutsche Telekom and IBM. He also has a particular talent for explaining complex subjects clearly and engagingly, with a high degree of entertainment value — a skill few possess.
