Strategic consulting and analysis is the basis for almost all projects. The assessment of the status quo and the comparison with market requirements leads to the gap analysis and shows the need for change in dynamic market environments. The fit between company and market determines long-term competitiveness. This includes very different areas. The congruence of the different strategies in a company is often not given - Thus, all sub-strategies must fit the vision and mission of the company. A product strategy, sales strategy, pricing or HR strategy that does not fit the overall goal is often found in companies. Market opportunities and evaluations for future products, the assessment or development of individual strategies (e.g. sales/product/marketing) are part of our core competencies. 

Change management is a buzzword of our time: challenges through digitalization, documentation, artificial intelligence but also increasing competition, cost pressure, sustainability and certification necessities with increasing demands on profitability seem difficult to reconcile. Frequently, however, company analyses reveal process change opportunities or disruptive potentials alongside sometimes only minor change necessities, the implementation of which paves the way for further growth. Turnaround situations place additional demands on consultants and companies due to the short-term need for success. Especially in these situations, communication skills on the basis of secure strategic abilities combined with the will to implement and success orientation are the minimum toolset requirements. The change, which often requires sensitivity while maintaining or increasing employee motivation, requires know-how. Whether change management or turnaround - we have successfully managed both in the past - let us discuss your project!

Private Equity has become one of the most important, if not the most important player for financing, company consolidation, portfolio, buy and build or platform strategies. The number of potential targets is getting smaller and smaller, but mistakes in the acquisition process should not be allowed to happen. Inevitably, every company acquisition is preceded by an initial review of the company, a market evaluation and environment analysis, before the due diligence process follows and, if successful, leads to a successful conclusion after signing and closing. We accompany P/E companies throughout the entire process - from the analysis of the target to the final closing.

In today's world, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find highly qualified personnel for complex tasks. However, short-term needs to fill vacancies must not lead to compromises in the selection of future senior executives. This often requires a temporary bridge until the final candidate is found. From our own successful interim management positions at C-Level, we know the requirements profile for unerring interim managers. For your vacancy in the C-Level area we should get into conversation.

In all of the above scenarios in which we are active, the ability to communicate plays a prominent role. Often, decisions are made that are unpleasant for the individual employee - from the need to take on a new area of responsibility to far-reaching structural changes to the company. Communication with a sure instinct is necessary to ensure the motivation of the individual and the success of the company on an ongoing basis, even in these sensitive processes. The company as a sum of its parts only functions in interaction. To ensure this interaction, it is often necessary to coach employees in change management and turnaround situations - this requires many years of management and communication experience. We offer coaching support at the highest level - with leadership know-how acquired in more than 15 years at the various levels.
