About Wolfgang

AI is already running in your company.

Not controlled by management, but by employees on their own initiative.

For emails. Offers. Presentations. Research.
This is called shadow AI. And it costs you control, data security, and real efficiency gains.

I introduce AI in a controlled manner as a growth lever for management, marketing, and sales.

Not as an IT project. Not as theory.
But with 30 years of implementation experience and immediately noticeable impact.

Not an AI consultant. Entrepreneurial partner with AI expertise.

    August 2023 - Today (2 years and 10 months)
    Dormagen, Germany
    I prepare companies for the AI working world with digital assistants, clear roles, and workflows that immediately relieve teams and improve decisions.

    As a strategy consultant, I support SMEs in making marketing, sales, and organization more efficient, focused, and effective.

    For over 30 years, I have worked internationally in leadership, marketing, and sales functions, and today I combine this experience with modern AI integration. My approach is practical, implementation-oriented, and consistently focused on sustainable growth.

    I develop clear strategies, build functioning structures, and support companies in their transformation towards AI-capable, hybrid organizations. I also rely on digital assistants that provide measurable relief in daily operations. In marketing, sales, and management.

    My focus areas:
    • Development & implementation of holistic marketing and sales strategies
    • Building and leading high-performing departments and project teams
    • AI integration in marketing, sales, and operational processes
    • Design of clear role models and efficient workflows
    • Go-to-market, cross-channel campaigns & brand leadership
    • Market research, competitive analysis & data-driven strategy development
    • Development of new sales channels and growth initiatives
    • Budget planning, controlling, and performance reporting
    • Event management – from trade fairs to incentives

    As a panel speaker and board member, I actively shape strategic development and contribute my experience in transformation and growth phases.
