Portfolio
Interim Management
Leadership, speed, hands-on mentality.
The combination of technical and commercial competence – these are the prerequisites for quick effectiveness.
Be it the solution to an acute HR bottleneck for a few months or a turn-around project stretching over a longer period. As interim managing director, my goal is to integrate myself quickly and seamlessly into the company and to exit smoothly after the agreed targets are accomplished.
Turn Around Consulting
Turn Around Management
In situations of crisis, it is often necessary to search additional, external expertise. Do you need a detailed analysis of the situation? Do you require support in developing concepts and strategies. Do you need active support in the implementation?
My approach: fast stabilization of the situation, at the same time developing a vision for the future together with the important stakeholders. If requested I am ready to implement.
Sustainability
European and German laws are increasingly demanding sustainable transformation of companies. Bigger companies have started their ESG transformation years ago. Today also mid sized and smaller companies start this voyage.
Together with my partners I support you in a sustainable, profit oriented transformation.
