Ulrike Reimann
Facilitator | Coach | Learning & Experience Designerin
Studied pedagogy, psychology and sociology.
Shaped by people – and by everything that grows and dissolves.
Formed by conflicts and learning spaces
no theory had anticipated.
I’m Ulrike, founder of Emotionskultur – a practice that emerged in 2007 from a shared vision with Marijana Grsak:
to re-claim emotional expression as a source of learning for people and systems.

I work at the intersection of coaching, facilitation, organisational development and culture work.
I’m less interested in methods than in what they make possible: movement. awareness. connection. evolution.
Because the new doesn’t only emerge from technique – it emerges from presence, relationship and the courage to feel and sense.
Path & Practice
grew up in Jena, East Germany, and spent many years working in the Balkans – at a time when reconciliation, belonging and new beginnings were not theories but daily necessities.
These experiences continue to shape my work: I explore the edge between emotion and structure, between individual experience and collective dynamics.
I studied intercultural pedagogy and accompanied peace and reconciliation projects before founding my own practice.
Since 2007, I have worked independently as a trainer, process facilitator and organisational consultant – with teams, projects and organisations that seek more than efficiency: meaning, connection, aliveness.
Practice over method
I’m fascinated by what people and teams leave out – emotions, tensions, contradictions.
I believe this is where the greatest resources lie: in discomfort, in rupture, in not-knowing.
I work with processes that make the invisible visible.
With spaces where what is difficult has room to move – so that development isn’t just discussed, but experienced.

Winding down — or: what I'm carrying right now

In my garden, change becomes something I can touch.
That's where I remember what change smells like.
I watch what shifts, I tend, I'm moved. A life that teaches me to be still.

In tango I find clarity and surrender.
No looking for mistakes, just listening for connection.
What matters is the moment — not the destination.

The bees remind me that the whole is greater than we are.
One body, made of many. And that sometimes, sharing is how things survive.

I keep meeting limits — in relationships, in plans, in what I ask of myself. Failure makes me humble. It shows what's left when nothing is working.

I'm in awe of darkness and sunlight, of ravens calling, of everything that grows, even unseen. And I find myself wondering how we compost experience so that social systems can breathe again.
So that life keeps moving.
