Wolfgang Weimer-Jehle received his PhD in synergy in 1989. He worked as a safety analyst and project manager in an engineering consultancy from 1990 to 1992 and as a project manager from 1992 to 2003. From 1999 he was employed as deputy divisional director at the Academy of Technology Assessment. From 2004 - 2012 he was senior researcher and deputy director of the Interdisciplinary Research Unit on Risk Governance and Sustainable Technology Development (ZIRN). He was appointed as project manager in 2012, as scientific director from 2012 to 2017 and research area spokesman in 2016. He was head of the CIB Lab at ZIRIUS as of 2018.
Dr. Weimer-Jehle retired in July 2023, but continues to advise the CIB Lab on methodological issues

Dr. Wolfgang Weimer-Jehle, who developed the CIB method in 2001-2006, advises the Lab on CIB applications and research, especially on questions of evaluation and method theory. Dr. Weimer-Jehle looks back on an extensive methodological practice, predominantly in the thematic area of energy. He is the author of the CIB software ScenarioWizard, for which he conducts training courses and user consultations.
