about me

steven Stalder

Filmmaker - Consultant - Trainer

I’m a cross-disciplinary professional working at the intersection of business strategy and consulting, coaching, and creative production with a strong foundation in leadership, both on the ground and on set.

 

My background is rooted in Business Administration and Information Technology. Over the past years, I’ve led and advised projects across Europe in the fields of data protection, cybersecurity, and digital transformation.

 

As founder of Lionowl GmbH, I provide stunt performance, rigging, and coordination, along with movement coaching for international film productions. My work is driven by precision, resilience, and adaptability.

My leadership style is shaped by a decade of high-level coaching and service as a Swiss Army officer. I thrive in dynamic environments, value structured chaos, and believe that discipline and creativity are two sides of the same coin.

Whether in consulting, filmmaking or training  —  my work follows the same principles:
clarity, structure, pressure testing and execution.

DESIGNING SYSTEMS
THAT DELIVER UNDER PRESSURE

I combine technical depth, strategic thinking and operational leadership
"I don’t advise from slides — I execute inside organizations"

 

STRATEGY MEANS NOTHING WITHOUT EXECUTION
EXECUTION FAILS WITHOUT STRUCTURE
STRUCTURE COLLAPSES WITHOUT LEADERSHIP

 

1. STRATEGY & BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

Direction before execution

  • Business  growth strategies

  • Market positioning & value propositions

  • Strategic roadmaps & prioritisation

  • Advisory for leadership & founders

.

2. GO-TO-MARKET & SALES ENABLEMENT

Strategy need traction

  • Sales structure & processes

  • Security & trust as sales enablers

  • Messaging for regulated markets

  • Alignment between product,
    sales & compliance

3. SECURITY & GOVERNANCE

Structure that scales

  • Information security & data protection

  • ISO 27001 / audit readiness

  • Risk Management & Governance

  • CISO as a Service

.

4. OPERATIONAL LEADERSHIP

From plan to reality

  • Interim leadership roles

  • Program & project leadership

  • Cross-functional coordination

  • Execution in complex organisations

.

HOW I WORK:

Embedded, Pragmatic, Outcome-driven

  • on-site or remote

  • hands-on, not theoretical

  • close to leadership & teams

  • focused on delivery, not decoration 

.
