Viktor Weiss (Mitte 30) kommt ursprünglich aus der Nähe von Pforzheim. Genauer gesagt aus Calw.
Sein Lebensmittelpunkt liegt seit einiger Zeit im Raum Stuttgart und Freiburg, wo er als Senior Projektmanager tätig ist.
In mehr als ingesamt 6 Jahren Berufserfahrung erlangte er weitreichende Kenntnisse als Refernt der Geschäftsführung eines weltweit operierenden mittelständischen Unternehmens sowie in der Leitung von klassischen, hybriden, wie auch agilen Projekten.
Er verfügt über verschiedene Projektmanagementzertifizierungen (Product Owner, IPMA/GPM Level C & D, Superkräfte für Projektleitende) und vermittelt in seinen Kursen paxisnah, welche Techniken und Methoden im Projektalltag funktionieren.
Nebenberuflich unternehmerisch tätig zu sein, macht ihm großen Spaß. Er hatte ein Startup für glutenfreie Spätzlemehlmischungen während Covid gegründet und bereits mehrere Android-Apps (mein Bruder findet sie ganz gut ;-) ) veröffentlicht. Diese Projekte ermöglichen es ihm, Ideen umzusetzen. Jetzt auch mit Online Kursen, um sein Wissen und Erfahrung mit anderen Personen zu teilen.

Viktor Weiss (mid-30s) originally comes from near Pforzheim. To be more precise - I am from Calw. He has been living in the Stuttgart and Freiburg area for some time now, where he works as a senior project manager.
In more than 6 years of professional experience, he gained extensive knowledge as a executive assistant for a globally operating medium-sized company as well as in the management of classic, hybrid and agile projects.
He holds various project management certifications (Product Owner, IPMA/GPM Level C & D, Superpowers for Project Managers by VSC) and teaches in his courses which techniques and methods work in a practical way.
Being an entrepreneur on the side brings him great joy. He founded a startup for a gluten-free spaetzle flour mix during COVID and has published several Android apps (my brother likes them ;-) ). These projects allow me to bring ideas to life, and now I’m also creating online courses to share my knowledge with others.
