Independence & Availability

After twelve years as Member of the Management Board of a family-owned business, I now work independently as a Senior Advisor and Interim Manager, taking on responsibility in exceptional corporate situations. I can take on mandates at short notice and focus wherever additional leadership experience and hands-on execution are needed.

Let's build the bridge.
I look forward to discussing your situation.
