I modernise how companies run for the AI age.

Barbara Arnst - Independent Executive Advisor

Barbara Arnst
track record

Design it, and land it.

Strategist at Bain. Investor at Gimv. COO at Groupon. Most recently company-wide operating model transformation at Telenet.

Almost no one selling operating-model work has sat in all four seats — which is why I can both design the new way of operating and run the hard part of making it stick.

I live in Antwerp, where you'll often find me running — or being walked by a very charming golden retriever.

What I Do

My Service Offering

For CEOs and leadership teams who aren't convinced the pilots are getting them there.

  • The diagnostic. About five days over roughly two weeks — a structured read on where your operating model is ready for the AI age, and what has to move first.
  • Advisory. Sparring partner to you and your leadership team, at a standing cadence, through the change.
  • Embedded operating mandate. I join your executive team on a defined mandate: redesign how the company operates, then run the change through.
