Ulrike (Ulli) Hildebrand
Don't just fill positions, build a leadership powerhouse. It's easier than you think.
Female from Detroit, United states and speaks English, GermanAvailable for Collaboration, Interviews in Remote Formats
I'm Ulli, and I've spent nearly two decades helping CEOs and HR leaders of mid-sized service companies see what's costing them most—the hidden talent and leadership gaps that quietly derail strategy and slow momentum. I'm not your typical HR expert. I focus on the invisible cracks in how you manage your people, the ones that are costing companies like yours hundreds of thousands, even millions of dollars every year without you realizing it.
My target audience includes leaders who don't want to pay the price for turnover and disengagement caused by the lack of a talent infrastructure and poor leadership practices—those who are recognizing that people are truly an asset to the company. I've developed the Talent Infrastructure Maturity Pyramid, which works like an X-ray for your organization, showing exactly where you're vulnerable and what it's really costing you. Companies I've worked with have seen voluntary turnover drop by 30% and engagement scores jump significantly.
I’m happy to show you exactly how to spot these hidden vulnerabilities and provide a clear path to address them. Because while people aren't the only thing that matters in business, without them, little else does.

Why Invite Ulrike (Ulli) Hildebrand as a Guest?
I have some unique perspectives on leadership based on my own experience, one of which is that the less of an expert you are, the better your chances are to be a good leader. I'd be happy to share my story, along with some funny intercultural experiences and the discovery that leadership is key to success, no matter where in the world you are. Interestingly enough, the same mistakes are being made in leadership appointments everywhere, and my mission is to help individuals and organizations fix those. I am very passionate about this topic and will be a lively guest, drawing parallels to real life to get my points across. I believe I'm capable of making people laugh (at least smile), but of course I understand my sense of humor - not sure if your audience does. I have inspired team members and individuals in companies to change before, and helped them with their career and transition into bigger roles. It's what I love to do - help people make good choices for themselves and with that help the organization be successful.
