More about the interim manager

As a specialist and expert in all aspects of lean management, the interim manager takes on mandates in the direct and indirect areas (work, management and strategy processes). As a certified specialist consultant for restructuring and reorganization as well as an experienced manager, he also has the skills to safely lead companies out of crisis in special situations. His profile is rounded off by measurable change processes, executive coaching and strategic advice for top management as well as the assumption of temporary leadership in terms of further development.

The interim manager has a broad range of industry knowledge in the automotive and automotive supplier industry, mechanical and plant engineering, the commercial vehicle industry, toolmaking, medical technology and plastics technology. Casting, forging, forming and recycling are further core areas of expertise.

The optimization of indirect processes rounds off his portfolio. From up to five mandates per year, the interim manager also has in-depth experience in the areas of HR, controlling, sales, purchasing, catering, start-ups, pre-development and development.

His deep and broad knowledge is based on many years of working in highly efficient companies and plants, for example at Porsche and the Festool plant in Neidlingen. His close cooperation with former Toyota managers and his management experience at suppliers and OEMs form the basis of his understanding of leadership, which is adapted to the situation.

Building a team, keeping a plant stable, restructuring with all its tasks, developing and strengthening managers, providing orientation, creating clarity and acting consistently: These are buzzwords relating to the qualities that define him. Implementing change: The path from the idea to the concept to the experience has been part of his work for many years.

With the interim manager, clients get a person at their side who analyzes, understands, aligns and acts in the interests of the client and the company. Not from theory, but from his own tried and tested practice.
