I speak English and German and I am open to discuss any challenging task.

My expertise and knowledge are best suited to bring ailing firms back to life, profit and lasting success, to start a new operation or company of any kind, lead change in education and life-leadership or to just operate within a department, which needs to be aligned to the company’s vision, success and culture.

I have the ability to work with executives, managers and any work-station operator to increase harmony, quality, value, efficiency, profitability and lasting success through change.

I gather Facts, build “Unique Ability Teams”, create an unbeatable Strategy and implement all necessary tasks for an operation of Low Costs, High Quality, Return on Assets, Profits and Lasting Success!
