About Us

We specialize in cocreating marketing strategies that generate sustainable growth by aligning your brand experience (BX), customer experience (CX) and employee experience (EX).

Cocreation workshops were instrumental in our beginnings and remain at the core of our work today.

Maïeutyk was founded 2011 by Elke Steinwender. After managing marketing operations for over 15 years in 22 different countries, Elke began her entrepreneurial journey as a strategic marketing consultant.

Her first mandate was to carry out a thorough market analysis and develop a marketing strategy for a client. Elke’s work impressed the client, and they were optimistic about their future. However, a month later, when she followed up with the client, she learned that none of the plan’s actions had been implemented.

It was at this point that Maïeutyk’s cocreation workshop approach and implementation plans were created.

Elke recognized the potential for growth in her client and didn’t want the marketing plan to go unused.

She arranged a meeting with their team, and over a six-hour period, they collaborated to workshop the entire strategy. Together, they developed an actionable plan that could be implemented from the following day.

From that point on, cocreation workshops have been at the core of our work. We believe in harnessing the potential of the group, creating an environment for everyone to learn from each other and accelerate business growth.

What makes us unique

Our cocreation workshop approach sets us apart from other organizations, and it is the foundation of our work. Here’s why:

Our name, Maïeutyk, is derived from the word “maieutics” which was a unique method used by Socrates in Ancient Greece to help individuals discover their true selves and understanding through a process of questioning and open dialogue.

Socrates firmly believed that every individual holds the truth within themselves, and the role of the philosopher is to help bring that truth to the surface.

At Maïeutyk, we practice this philosophy every day as facilitators. Our cocreation workshops foster critical thinking and aim to bring together all voices to create a comprehensive and unified marketing strategy. Using this approach within a team cultivates ownership and pride, optimizes change management and leads to improved implementation.

We offer marketing strategy packages tailored to your business' unique needs.
