Summary
I am a high-performing, internationally experienced interim manager with a focus on building up and developing, leading and restructuring, and rehabilitating production companies, as well as process optimization along the value chain. I also have deep operational knowledge in introducing Lean Management philosophy and its tools, as well as OpEx methods as a facilitator, trainer, and coach.
One of my core strengths is my strong implementation skills; I also have the ability to motivate employees and teams and inspire them toward a common goal.
Through many years of leadership experience in international project management and in leading medium-sized, including family-run, companies in "critical situations", I have gained technical and economic expertise and extensive knowledge in change management, achieving lasting successes.
