And where do you stand?

With our “Quick Health Check” you receive an external assessment of your company's performance and learn which concrete levers can improve your earnings. Completed in five minutes – free of charge and without obligation.

Our philosophy: Institutional Learning

Lasting impact through building your own problem-solving capabilities

It has become common practice to call in consultants for problems of every kind. The drawback is recognized only late: the learning benefits mainly the consultant, while the client receives a one-off, ready-made solution that can quickly become obsolete as conditions change.

That is why we rely on Institutional Learning: enabling organizations to identify emerging problems on their own and solve them sustainably.

Traditional consulting

  • External consultants compensate for missing in-house problem-solving capabilities.
  • Analyses and concepts often do not fit the company's context.
  • The knowledge and know-how for mastering problems build up within the consulting team — not within the client's organization.

Our approach:
Institutional Learning

  • The direct learning gains benefit the entire organization.
  • The solutions developed are sustainable and tailored specifically to your company.
  • The organization is involved throughout the entire problem-solving process.

What we offer

Institutional Learning

Five forms of collaboration, from workshops to interim leadership. The goal is always the same: your organisation learns the methodology and approach to problem-solving so that it can solve its problems independently in future.

Workshops and seminars

Methods for your managers on the fundamental questions of corporate management, held in-house or as open courses.

Learn more

Sparring and coaching

We support owners and managing directors as a sparring partner while they align their organisation for peak performance under their own direction. Responsibility stays with you.

Learn more

Advisory board

We serve on formal or informal boards, whether advisory, supervisory or board of directors, at the frequency you choose and in the spirit of helping you help yourself.

Learn more

Classic consulting

Diagnosis, concept and support during implementation, for example with the Corporate Health Check or by building a CEO cockpit.

Learn more

Interim leadership

As part of a consulting mandate, we take on operational responsibility up to managing director level, with a planned handover to your own management.

Learn more
Methodology

The control loop of holistic corporate management

We understand the core of holistic, long-term successful corporate management as an interconnected control loop spanning all levels of leadership.

By creating transparency (KPIs) across all key performance areas, problem areas are identified early. Methodical approaches to sustainable problem-solving enable your employees to solve more problems over time than new ones arise each day.

This is what sets Institutional Learning apart from traditional consulting approaches, which often remain piecemeal.
