Summary
With my experience in leading various consulting projects and in disciplinary leadership positions in controlling, internal audit, organization, and IT, I can set the course for successful digitization within your functional areas.
My work focuses on optimizing decision-making processes and internal business processes.
This happens, e.g., through the introduction and expansion of business / artificial intelligence (BI/AI) processes & tools, implementation of ERP systems, building cloud-based/on-prem data architectures, and data analysis using SAP and Microsoft tools.
I can navigate confidently in both traditional and agile project environments, especially in the role of a project manager.
