About me
Actively and positively supporting change – that’s what motivates me. With 15 years of experience in insolvency administration, including 3 years as an insolvency administrator, I advise companies so that they can recognize crisis situations early on, avert them and create new prospects.
Because by making optimum use of the instruments of the Insolvency Code, a crisis does not necessarily mean the end, but also the opportunity for a new beginning. I also like to actively promote positive change in my free time. As an honorary board member of the redevelopment advisory board, I am committed to the urban development of my home town.

- Preparation of consolidated financial statements in the municipal sector

About me
I laid the foundation for my professional career by studying business administration at the University of Münster.
I gained my first practical experience in the field of auditing between 2004 and 2010 at a Big Four firm. During this time, I successfully passed the tax advisor and auditor exams.
I then went on to work independently in my own firm and in a partnership.
All stages of my professional career have been characterized by my specialization in advising non-profit and municipal organizations. Since 2024, I have focused primarily on this area as well as on the preparation and auditing of annual financial statements for such companies.
In addition, as a tutor at Lehrgangswerk Haas, I have been assisting prospective tax consultants and auditors in preparing for their respective exams since 2010.
I have also been teaching at Jade University in Oldenburg since 2016.

Naime
Lind
Consultant & Systemic Coach
Telephone: +49 (0)441 9710-254
Focus of activities:
- Sustainability management and reporting
- Strategy consulting with a focus on sustainable development
- Supporting organizational change processes
- Leadership and corporate culture development
About me
My passion for sustainability has accompanied me since finishing school – leading me through my studies, my role as a sustainability manager, and eventually into management consulting. I’m particularly fascinated by the dynamics of change processes, raising awareness for sustainable thinking, and developing visions, guiding principles, and strategies.
To support organizations even more effectively, I trained as a systemic coach and acquired additional qualifications in change management and agile transformation – including a SCRUM certification as a Professional Agile Leader. This allows me to combine strategic thinking with a deep understanding of organizational culture and personal development.
And when I’m not helping organizations move forward, I’m often on the move myself – preferably outdoors, running or on my road bike.

I have always been fascinated by figures and regional economic relationships – they offer a lot of potential for advancing the region, its people and companies.

I have been advising companies for over 15 years, mainly in the construction and energy sectors.

Based on my training as a tax clerk followed by studies in business administration in Bremen, I have been working in the field of taxation for a total of around 20 years: initially with a focus on auditing and preparing annual financial statements for larger companies, and after passing the tax advisor exam, mainly in the field of small and medium-sized enterprises.

Insbesondere liegt – aufgrund der stetigen Entwicklung insgesamt sowie der gesetzlichen Rahmenbedingungen – ein Hauptaugenmerk auf der Verbesserung und Optimierung (Digitalisierung) der vorgelagerten Prozesse.
Unser Ziel steht hierbei im Mittelpunkt: Der Mandant soll sich auf sein Kerngeschäft konzentrieren können. Möglich ist dieses durch eine vertrauensvolle Zusammenarbeit zwischen Steuerberater und Mandant.
Und wie beim wöchentlichen Spielbetrieb meiner Jugendfußballmannschaft ist es auch bei der Steuerberatung: nur durch das gemeinsame Zusammenspiel aller Beteiligten, klare Rollenverteilungen, gegenseitige Unterstützung sowie präzise Abstimmungen kann das optimales Ergebnis erzielt werden.
