I facilitate and mediate team processes and public participation processes, where people work together for a better environment and for sustainable development. I try to support them as a “process manager“ and therefore I often work outside my office, as you can see from the pictures. Back home again in my office I develop innovative procedures and settings for public participation and cooperation at strategic planning levels. I also do some research into how processes could be designed/developed in order to integrate environmental and sustainability issues into decisionmaking effectively.

Views from Work

This view over Seattle with Mount Rainier in the background was taken on an assignment there. It is characteristic of my job as managing head of the company and consultant in mostly technical environments to have an eye for everything and to re-assemble many pictures, standpoints and views to one whole unit. co.systems accompanies processes of change, in terms of organisational changes as well as the employees when adapting to new guidelines.

The various colourful and diversified aspects of scientific work are represented. These also include talks and chairing discussions.
Sanja Vranes
The Mihailo Pupin Institute, Belgrade | Republic of Serbia
I am a female researcher in computer science (see a short bio-sketch below). As a scientific director of the major R&D institute for information and communication technologies in Serbia, I am in charge of 250 researchers. I also teach computer science at the University of Belgrade. My photo with my rather untidy desk is attached with this message. I will invite several other female colleagues of mine to take part in your initiative.
