Understanding Complexity. Creating Structure. Enabling Decisions.
I support medium-sized and technology-oriented companies in analyzing established technical and organizational structures, streamlining operational processes, and effectively implementing digitalization and transformation. My focus is on sustainable business development: economically viable, structured, practical, and resilient.
I am not a traditional consultant. Instead of offering prefabricated concepts, I provide structured, experience-based support: technically sound, economically minded, and consistently focused on implementation.
Whether it is structured process optimization, digitalization of HR structures, organizational development, securing skilled personnel, or the introduction of new technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Industry 4.0: I align technical business consulting, change management, and structured execution – for companies that want to shape future viability on a solid foundation.
No standardized methods. No conventional coaching. Just experience, structure, and clarity. For decision-makers who bear responsibility – and seek a partner who thinks ahead, structures, and ensures sustainable implementation capability.

Solving Challenges in Medium-Sized Companies
When technical processes work but are not truly understood
I help structure technical systems to ensure they are comprehensible, manageable, and adaptable – for employees, managers, and related departments. The goal: sustainable, structured process optimization.
When interfaces become weak points
I identify where responsibilities are unclear, create structure, and support the development of robust interfaces – organizationally, technically, and interpersonally.
When managers are caught up in daily operations
I offer sparring at eye level: technically sound, economically focused, with an external, clear perspective. The focus: strengthening leaders as active change agents within technology companies.
When HR structures are outdated and skilled workers are lacking
I support companies in aligning HR structures for the future: modernizing processes, clearly defining roles, cleanly mapping responsibilities, and effectively implementing HR digitalization. Special focus is given to the application of collective labor agreements in employee leasing and the distinction between service and work contracts. The goal: securing skilled labor through modern, legally compliant HR structures.
When technical decisions are needed but economic perspectives are missing
I help evaluate investments, system selections, and structural changes with a sound foundation – ensuring technology, operations, and profitability are optimally aligned and scalable.
When structures need to change
I guide companies through change processes: analyzing, structuring, providing orientation, and developing realistic paths with leadership teams – pragmatic, resilient, and people-focused. Building resilient business structures is the ultimate goal.
When new technologies show potential but fail to deliver impact
I help implement innovations like AI systems, Industry 4.0 approaches, and digital tools – not just introducing them, but embedding them sustainably into operational processes. AI-based process optimization ensures true operational value creation.
Successful Projects
Process optimization: enabling accountability and increasing efficiency
An established company discovered that a digital approval process created more effort than benefit. Analysis revealed common weaknesses: inconsistent interfaces, unclear roles, and manual workarounds. Structured process optimization standardized operations, clarified responsibilities, and optimized system usage.
Understanding and standardizing cost structures
A corporation with multiple business units struggled to provide reliable unit cost data. By restructuring information flows and implementing a scalable reporting system, a consolidated data foundation was established, enabling better decision-making.
Sustainable HR compliance and securing skilled workers
An industrial company successfully modernized its HR processes to ensure compliance with legal requirements and long-term employee retention, including clear distinctions between service and work contracts.
