Heinz-Georg Geissler

Heinz-Georg “Schorsch” Geissler is a senior B2B sales and transformation leader with more than 25 years of experience in industrial automation, high-tech manufacturing, and people-driven business models across Europe, Asia, and North America. He helps companies accelerate growth by building and scaling go-to-market organizations at the intersection of technology, strategy, and human capital. His strength lies in translating complex technologies into compelling value propositions, designing customer-centric sales architectures, and turning strategic intent into measurable commercial results. Georg is currently a shareholder and Chief Sales Officer at a Swiss linear-motor and motion-systems company, where he actively supports the shift from component thinking to integrated machine and system architectures. He works hands-on with founders, management teams, and boards to professionalize sales structures and prepare organizations for scalable growth. A recurring theme throughout his career is breaking down silos—between sales and marketing, technology and people, as well as data and decision-making. This approach is embedded in his proprietary S.I.L.O. ecosystem model, which integrates Sales, Innovation, Leadership, and Organization into a coherent, customer-centric operating system for B2B companies. In addition to his entrepreneurial roles, Georg is an active thought leader and network builder. He holds leadership responsibilities within a national association for sales executives, hosts business podcasts and live formats, and regularly speaks on B2B transformation, modern sales leadership, and the future of work. What distinguishes him is a pragmatic, execution-driven mindset: strategy only creates value when it is implemented. Georg combines board-level perspective with operational execution and is frequently engaged as a sparring partner for founders, executives, and investors seeking sustainable growth, cultural alignment, and long-term value creation.
