Back to original languageAbout Christian
**Consulting**, moderation, and **solution design**, preferably in **complex environments**, in the area of business development or restructuring.
- Digitalization - Product Data Management - Sustainability
**No consulting without individual analysis**: SWOT, GAP, Market, Digital Readiness, Processes
Based on many years of consulting experience and diverse industry knowledge, I routinely conduct relevant analyses, thus creating reliable foundations for decisions.
As a project and interim manager, I also take on the **implementation of projects**, with team leadership and budget responsibility.
As an engineer, I have been in various roles in project business since 1997, know agile approaches from classic product development and software projects, as well as the business topics of organizational development and executive coaching during transformations.
Diverse industry experience(B2B, B2C, D2C) and technical understanding, including IT topics, often enables me to conduct effective moderation between business and IT, or to manage external (IT) service providers in projects.
A key focus is digital product data as the key to digitalization (processes) and sustainability (transparency in data).This leads to solutions for ESG topics such as CSRD, CSDDD, DPP, CBAM, Carbon Footprint.
