As a Partner at Axel Schröder & Partner, I honed my skills in management consulting and R&D management, gaining valuable insights into navigating complex organizational challenges. My tenure as Business Unit Manager at Detecon International GmbH further deepened my understanding of management consulting within the automotive sector. Drawing from my experiences as a Director at Agamus Consult and as a Project Manager at Kuka Wehrtechnik GmbH, I developed a holistic approach to strategy, innovation management, and project optimization. My early career in the German Air Force instilled in me a sense of discipline, leadership, and gave me insights into multinational aircraft development projectsMy academic journey reflects my commitment to continuous learning and growth. I earned a Master's degree in Aeronautical Engineering from Universität der Bundeswehr München and later pursued a Master's in Business Administration from Fernuniversität Hagen. These foundational degrees provided me with a solid understanding of engineering principles and business management concepts, which have been instrumental throughout my career. Today, as the head of CO-Improve, I continue to drive transformation initiatives, and inspire positive change within the industry.
