Düsseldorf, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany

I have worked with all employees to transform our company from a traditional, machine-like organization into a customer-centric, agile and diverse culture (no hierarchies and 14 different nations!) where trust between all of us is our most important asset. We see "change" as a continuous movement that gives us the ability to reconfigure teams as needed in a matter of days. Based on this, we were able to transform all of our business units from an IT-driven to a cross-functional, innovative and data & consulting-driven fraud prevention company. Our approach increased our capabilities by > 30% without significantly increasing headcount. Our innovative ideas have resulted in new machine learning products that have sold multiple times shortly after going live. Our focus industries are e-commerce and telecommunication.
