We are future thinkers for entrepreneurs.
Our passion is to work more 'on' the business than 'in' it.

Our Drive

Who actually runs your business while you do the work of others?

Do you still spend a lot of time working on concrete tasks, projects, customers, or contracts, we mean working ‘in’ the business? Or is your work predominantly ‘on’ the business, like on strategic partnerships, more complex structures, future corporate organisation and above all on the soft elements of people and culture?

Do you want your business to grow significantly or even scale? Then, at the latest, working on the company is your main task! Naturally, there is competition between the work ‘on’ and ‘in’ the business when it comes to prioritisation.

We support entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs in building and expanding their companies, i.e. in Enterprise Engineering.

We help the company’s leadership to dedicate themselves to work “on” their company in a conscious and planned manner.

We provide our many years of professional and leadership expertise in the areas of corporate and organizational development, culture & people as well as leadership and human resources.

No Off-the-Rack Solutions

Each of our client companies has its own distinct constellation – no two are alike. This is why we take an individualised approach to our assignments and develop custom solutions for each client’s specific needs.

We don’t sell pre-designed tools or systems. In our work, we frequently encounter similar requirements and circumstances, however, and this allows us to constantly expand and sharpen our expertise. You, too, can benefit from this expertise by putting our services to work to ensure the success of your project.

‘If you’re passionate about exclusive tailor-made clothing, you shop at a boutique. This is how we see ourselves – as a boutique for Enterneering®’.

"

With us, everything is centered around the evolution and transformation of the organisation, structure and culture in companies with 50 to 500 employees and a technology- or infrastructure-driven business model.
