Mrs Nicole Diebold

Manager, Operations & Events

Raised in the Southwest of Germany, near the picturesque Black Forest and the border with France, Nicole is highly motivated to support the Foundation team with her knowledge, experience, and skills. She is fluent in German, English, and French and thrives in collaborative team environments. Her athleticism fuels her love for outdoor activities, and she draws inspiration from the diverse cultures she encounters on her travels.

Nicole joined the World Scout Foundation Team in July 2024.

Nicole’s journey began in the banking sector. She later pursued further studies to become a Marketing Specialist and, after a decade, embarked on studying Business Administration at the university level. During this period, she started a family, raising two wonderful children, and upon completing her studies, transitioned into the consulting field.

Her professional life has always been complemented by active participation in community and family-oriented activities. She was deeply involved in different parent committees and played a significant role in organising the summer holiday youth program for the local community. During this time, her son became a Scout, enriching her family life further.

In 2011, she began working in the communication department at the University of Applied Sciences Offenburg. Collaborating closely with the university’s Vice Presidents, she managed and coordinated significant events with cooperative partners, focusing on student recruitment and international STEM competitions. Witnessing students' personal development and seeing them find their paths was immensely inspiring.

A cervical spine incident profoundly changed her outlook on life, leading her to embrace mindfulness and self-care. She delved deep into various yoga practices, meditation, traditional Chinese medicine, shiatsu massage, and stress management. This journey led her to establish her own business, teaching holistic yoga, spinal gymnastics, and stress management.

Nicole's philosophy is shaped by the fact that Our Earth is unique, with its diverse cultures and rich biodiversity making it vibrant. Through her work, she aims to ensure that people of all generations and cultures can live peacefully together, learn from one another, and collaboratively shape our future.
