Anita Leutgeb

In a nutshell

experience as adult trainer since 1993
experience in international project and programme management since 2000 (from 2000-2003 as a volunteer in different NGOs)

I am thrilled by learning new things, sectors, techniques, methods and personal development. I am passionate about combining research, practice and creativity to inquiry into what works best or what could be improved so that my clients achieve greater impact.

I love multilingualmulticultural and transdisciplinary environments. I am fluent in German, English, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese. In the past 25 years I lived and worked in different cities in Austria, Germany, Italy, France and Mozambique and travelled to a huge number of countries both for work, studies and vacation.

My great passion for foreign languages, cultures and people’s life stories allows me to adapt very quickly and well to different cultures and to establish excellent (cross-cultural) working relationships.

Prior to my independent consultancy and research work I worked as programme manager in international development in NGOs and as a language teacher and adult trainer. For more than ten years I have been collaborating with implementing partners in Africa, Asia, Europe, and Latin America.
