Ingo Rauth’s Career
Since he was 19, Rauth has aspired to be a positive force in society, and that’s what drew him to design. His early career was in graphic design and front-end web development. But he soon realized that there wasn’t scope for much innovation in that field.
That led him to study and pursue industrial design. During his transition from graphic to industrial, Rauth worked with Tallence GmbH, Christophe Marchand in Switzerland, 3Deluxe, GRO design in the Netherlands, Philips Design in Hong Kong, San Francisco’s Mike & Maaike, and more.
While working with designers and strategists in major companies, Rauth met many smart and innovative minds. He felt that organizations that are stuck in their old ways are not tapping into the potential of these innovators.

He has operated his own company as a career transition coach since 2017. He founded the learning platform School of Becoming in 2020 as well.
He helps individuals and organizations learn professional development in terms of shifting from paycheck to purpose. He’s also served an adjunct professor in professional development at the IE Business School in Spain since 2016.
