Glatz Impact Ventures catalyses the shift into an Age of Wisdom by working with Impact Investors, Business Schools, Impact Startups and Companies to integrate the worldview, practices and insights of ancient wisdom traditions into their daily actions, investments, processes and culture. Guiding capital & leadership into The Age of Wisdom Start a dialogue Leadership, Capital & Legacy Building For leaders, investors, and institutions navigating complexity, stewardship, and long-term value. In a time of accelerating technological change, environmental and systemic risk, and growing societal expectations, leadership and capital are increasingly intertwined with responsibility. Decisions made today shape not only financial outcomes, but institutional credibility, social trust, and long-term value across generations. My work sits at the intersection of leadership, capital, and stewardship. Drawing on cross-cultural wisdom traditions, modern systems thinking, and practical experience with leaders and investors, I support those who recognise that long-term value creation requires more than optimisation - it requires discernment, ethical clarity, and the ability to act responsibly within complex living systems. This approach is designed for those who hold influence and responsibility, and who seek to align leadership, investment decisions, and legacy with enduring value. Leadership, Capital & Stewardship Dana Ulrike Glatz works at the intersection of leadership, capital, and long-term responsibility. With a background in international business, change management, and impact investing, she advises wealth owners, family offices, and institutions on aligning leadership decisions and capital allocation with long-term value creation. She brings over two decades of experience across Europe, India, and Latin America - including senior roles in global consulting, entrepreneurship in emerging markets, and the founding of impact-driven organisations and multi-stakeholder initiatives. Her work combines strategic clarity with deep cross-cultural understanding, informed by academic teaching, field-based inquiry, and direct engagement with leaders across sectors. Today, Dana supports leaders and investors who understand that navigating complexity, stewardship, and intergenerational value requires discernment, ethical clarity, and wise leadership - capabilities that extend beyond technical expertise alone. Explore working together Leadership, Capital & Legacy in Practice Core areas of work In times of AI, complexity and accelerating change, leadership requires more than intelligence, knowledge, tools, and methods. It calls for wisdom – a deeper form of clarity that allows for sound decision-making in uncertainty and leadership from a more aligned and grounded place. Decisions made today shape not only financial outcomes, but institutional credibility, relationships, and long-term value across generations – in business as well as in life. Yet many of these decisions are made under pressure, complexity, and without true clarity – despite having all the information at hand. This is where a different kind of clarity is required. A deeper form of knowing, beyond analysis. The Decision Clarity Intensive A private, guided process for moments where clarity is critical. Precision Framing (60 min) Clarifying the real decision beneath the surface. Clarity Ceremony (Rapé, Indigenous Medicine) Accessing clarity beyond analytical thinking. Integration & Action (60 min) Translating clarity into decisive action. Outcome A decision that feels clear, grounded, and internally aligned – and the confidence to act on it immediately. 50% of the proceeds are directed to Indigenous-led projects through the Wisdom Age Foundation. For questions, request a confidential conversation. Request a private session Decision clarity for leaders “I came in with a decision I had been circling for months. After the process, it was clear – and I acted on it immediately. The clarity and calm I felt were immediate and tangible.” CEO, Family-Owned Business "Dana helped us bring coherence between our values, our capital, and the impact we want to see - without simplifying the complexity ". Principle, Family Office Legacy & Impact Guidance For wealth owners, family offices, and foundations, legacy today is increasingly understood as the responsible stewardship of capital in service of long-term societal and ecological wellbeing. Dana Ulrike Glatz supports the development of impact investing and philanthropy portfolios that are grounded in systems thinking and informed by Indigenous and ancestral wisdom traditions. Her work draws on long-standing relationships with Indigenous leaders and knowledge holders, as well as cross-cultural experience across Europe, Asia, and Latin America, to help capital engage with living systems respectfully and effectively. Rather than focusing on financial optimisation, the work centres on impact integrity: clarifying purpose, defining strategic priorities, identifying credible, community-led projects, and shaping portfolios that contribute to regenerative outcomes and intergenerational value. Particular attention is given to questions of power, ownership, cultural context, and the conditions for respectful collaboration. Dana works alongside existing financial, legal, and investment advisors, offering strategic guidance at the intersection of impact, culture, and responsibility - ensuring that capital is deployed with alignment to values, discernment, humility, and long-term perspective. Mentoring Founders Building and leading impact-driven organisations requires founders to navigate complexity, responsibility, and constant decision-making - often without a trusted space for reflection and challenge. Dana Ulrike Glatz works as a mentor and sparring partner for impact startup founders and NGO leaders, drawing on extensive experience in entrepreneurship, management consulting, international development, and impact investing. She draws on her background and experience in building and leading a company in India, senior roles in management consulting, training with the United Nations, and the founding and co-founding of mission-driven organisations and alliances. The mentoring is practical, discreet, and grounded in real-world experience. It supports founders and leadership teams in strategic decision-making, organisational development, collaboration, and navigating conflict - strengthening clarity, resilience, and alignment between purpose and execution. “Having Dana as a sparring partner brought clarity at moments where decisions really mattered.” Executive Director, NGO Explore working together Seeds of Impact Moments from lived practice across leadership, capital, and systems change This work unfolds across diverse contexts - from global impact investing forums and leadership conferences to closed-door dialogues, project development, and strategic collaboration with founders, investors, and institutions. The images below offer glimpses into this lived practice: moments of exchange, decision-making, and shared inquiry across geographies and cultures. Together, they reflect an ongoing commitment to aligning leadership, capital, and responsibility in service of long-term value and meaningful change.

- Pioneers | Wisdom Age Foundation
WISDOM PIONEERS Entrepreneurs manifesting the shift Pathfinders to an Age of Wisdom There are always people ahead of their times , not swimming along in the main river of tradition or trends but going deeper and beyond what is considered the norm. They are the path finders that ease the way for others; extraordinary minds that dare to follow their hearts , do not mind taking risks, are called utopians and unrealistic. Until they find a way to prove their point, to manifest what earlier only existed in their minds and what they were called to do. The world developed due to such pioneers . Of these we now need a specific type: Wise ones. These wisdom pioneers create from the inside out, hold a holistic view and apply system thinking. They do not scare away from exploring the inner and outer realms of what is possible and show extraordinary creativity, resilience and capability in communicating and cooperating with their immediate and wider ecosystem to realise their vision. They do this with the greater good in mind and through this establish a platform for the Age of Wisdom to emerge. Their wisdom and conscious action are the seeds we need as a species to flourish .

EXPAND . What our wonderful participants are saying "Last year I was honoured to be invited to the first Indigenous Wisdom Gathering on Eskaret Island, and in my own life this has now led to some highly significant ongoing connections. It is an extraordinary privilege to be in the company of elders who are carrying forward ancestral wisdom relating to the interconnectedness and interwovenness of life, and particularly so if they come from cultures that are living examples of reciprocity and mutuality. It is also a real joy to spend time with other leaders and change-agents who are committed to systems change. It requires from all of us the courage and humility of letting go of everything that we thought we knew and to drop into the powerful emergent space of deep listening. I was humbled to be a part of this initial very powerful gathering and fully recommend any future events to others."

- Gatherings | Wisdom Age Foundation
WISDOM GATHERINGS EXPERIENCING WISDOM & DEEPENING LEADERSHIP CAPACITY We gather business leaders and investors in nature, close to the elements that make all life. With the objective to facilitate a deep encounter with nature, oneself and Indigenous Elders, like e.g. the Kogi from Columbia, the Sami and Inuit from the North of Scandinavia and Greenland or the Huni Kuin and Lakota from the Americas. You might ask: What could an indigenous people tell us about the complex problems of our current times? What could we possibly learn about leadership, sustainability and decision making from them? We always look for the next new thing - to be up to date, ahead of the curve. However, there is deep wisdom in what survived the trends and storms of time. Ancient knowledge and practices are key for our modern times . As neither complex problems, harsh environments nor difficult decisions are something new. Our current business problems and organisational challenges are in their core as old as humanity . So if we ask ourselves essential questions about becoming resilient and sustainable, about walking a path in harmony with nature, it is a good idea to ask those that have sustained themselves and nature in often rough territories and circumstances - for thousand of years.
