OWN THE CLIMB
What performance requires when conditions change
Everyone is working.
But not everyone is moving forward.
More meetings – but slower decisions.
More activity – but no faster progress.
More pressure – but less clarity.
Performance becomes inconsistent.
Less predictable. Harder to steer.
The issue is not effort.
It’s that what makes performance possible is no longer in place.
Monika works with leadership teams that are expected to deliver – even when conditions are no longer stable.
She combines experience from record-setting endurance projects with her background at the World Bank, IMF and in management consulting into her own approach:
CLIMB – that defines what must be in place for performance to remain stable when conditions change.
Key Insights for Leaders and Teams
Leadership teams leave with a clear understanding of:
– what performance actually depends on
– where performance breaks under pressure
– how to maintain ownership when conditions change
– how to keep progress visible and teams aligned
– how to sustain performance over time
You can work harder.
But performance only improves when the right structures are in place.

About Monika
Monika is an international keynote speaker and executive advisor on sustained performance.
She works with leadership teams to make performance reliable – especially when conditions change.
She began her career at the IMF, the World Bank and in management consulting before designing and leading her own large-scale performance projects.
As a former professional cyclist, she became the first person to ride all 124 Swiss mountain passes in 26 days – with no rest day, fixed route or stable conditions.
These projects required daily execution, continuous reprioritization, and performance without certainty.
From this, she developed CLIMB – a clear structure that defines what performance actually requires when conditions change.
