Summary
For over 25 years, I have been shaping both the management and the content of IT projects. Initially working as a project team member, I quickly took on responsibility for smaller projects. During various roles at national and international consulting firms and in services for energy suppliers, the scope and complexity of the projects I managed steadily grew. Since 2010, I have supported IT projects in different industries as an independent consultant. My focus is on analyzing and correcting troubled project situations (Health Check & Turnaround Management) or on preventive, methodological or content-related quality assurance in project leadership.
My professional focus is on IT and processes in the energy industry, especially on billing systems from various vendors. The combination of project management along with professional and (IT) technical expertise gives me a broad as well as deep skill set. In my past projects, I was able to apply this effectively in technical content as well as in consulting on IT architecture, strategy and governance.
