I thrive on turning complex challenges into simple, human-centered solutions that create lasting value for both users and organizations.Over the years, I’ve worked across big corporates, scaleups, tech companies, consultancies, and industries like automotive, railway, and private education. This variety sharpened my generalist mindset while giving me depth in specific domains such as CRM, ERP and communication solutions.What sets me apart is the ability to connect the dots between business needs, technical feasibility, and customer experience. Whether it’s designing scalable workflows, running lean workshops, or guiding digital transformation initiatives, I aim to keep things practical, collaborative, and impact-driven. My current focus areas include- Product Management: from discovery to delivery, always anchored in customer needs- AI Integration: helping teams go beyond “AI hype” by designing thoughtful AI solutions: from strategy and compliance to tailored AI agents and process automation- CRM & Contact Center Solutions: my favorite area: integrating Salesforce and CCaaS platforms to streamline processes and create exceptional customer experiences- ERP Systems: optimizing operations and aligning processes with business goals Core skills & practicesProduct Management • Requirement Engineering • Agile & Scrum • Workshop Facilitation • Process Design • Lean Management • Digital Transformation • AI Strategy & Implementation • ERP • CRM • Salesforce How I work- Clarify goals and pain points through structured discovery- Translate complexity into actionable steps and measurable progress- Align stakeholders across business and tech through focused workshops- Build solutions that scale while keeping user value at the centerLet’s connectDMs open or email h••••@tomwinkelmann.com.

Also, I love to do just nothing, relax and breathe.
