About Dr. Holger Schober

In short summary: I love being in the sourcing and supply chain area, I like collecting and sharing knowledge with people and I am keen on supporting people and companies in their development!Here's in a nutshell what I am doing today and how it helps me and others in our development.1. Hiteco: This is basically my point of access and knowledge source about Global/Asia Sourcing, international supply chains, intercultural understanding and how to find a solution for all kind of technical, commercial and logistic challenges. Hiteco supplies custom-made assembly groups and engineered parts to B2B companies worldwide ("local for global") as well as in China ("local for local"). This includes products such as vacuum pumps, displacement pumps, integrated control valves, valves, pneumatic cylinders, switch box and other housings and many other parts. This allows our clients to achieve high(er) savings compared to the sourcing of single items. Nevertheless, Hiteco is also supplying high-precision CNC machining parts, casting parts (different casting technologies and materials), stamping parts, forging parts, or plastic injection parts to interested companies. Over the years, Hiteco has become a "one-stop sourcing" partner for medium-sized and large companies from various industries. Why? Because each shipment will be checked 100% before delivery! Because Hiteco is proactively working with clients on potential savings and improvements! And because the whole Hiteco team is highly service- and customer-oriented!The production sites are located mainly in China, but also in Vietnam and other countries. What better source could I have to learn every day new things? If you are interested in sourcing of technical parts from Asia, just contact me!2. Supply Chain and Business Performance Management I am blessed to have had the opportunity to get back to the academic world by being appointed as Senior Research Fellow Supply Chain at the CPMC, Frankfurt School of Finance & Management. Together with a highly energetic team, we conduct benchmark and best-practice surveys on supply chains and sourcing strategies. The results of these surveys will not only be published but also shared with professionals that they can leverage the input for their own business. Knowledge collection and knowledge sharing are the two main points on my and our agenda! This is done not only by publishing articles but also in formats such as the Executive Roundtable Supply Chain ("Managementkreis Lieferkette") or our new program, the so-called International Leaders Performance Club.

  • Psm Academy
    Executive Director
    Psm Academy 2013 - 2021
    Shanghai / Glasgow
    In this role, I was responsible for the development and management of all international training activities of PSM Academy. Most of the training courses had been for companies (corporate training), e.g. as single workshops or as comprehensive courses over a certain period of time. The training catalogue consists of more than 50 topics such as about sourcing strategy, negotiation, supplier management, cost analysis, risk management, conflict management, driving performance and accountability, value creation and many others. The PSM Academy team has also conducted online competence assessments, as well as we designed and run various so-called procurement academies. Last but not least, we prepared many procurement professionals for internationally acknowledged certificates such as CPSM or CIPS diploma.
  • Reliance Industries Limited
    Head Procurement & Contracting Academy
    Reliance Industries Limited 2011 - 2012
    Mumbai, Maharashtra, India
    I was in charge of designing, developing and implementing the corporate procurement academy for Reliance, India's largest company by market capitalization. In order to serve the training needs of 900 people, we had to start from scratch and analyze the training demand, match this with the requirement of the senior management and to come up with a comprehensive training plan and roadmap (which had to be aligned with job descriptions and potential career plans). After only a few months, the Reliance Procurement Academy had more than 40 custom-made training subjects available, as well as 5 custom-made training programs for different target groups (e.g. Buyer, Sourcing/Category Manager, Emerging Leaders etc.).
  • Thyssenkrupp Elevator
    Senior International Project Manager
    Thyssenkrupp Elevator 2009 - 2011
    In this role, I was supporting and driving two strategic HR projects of TKE for many years:1. SEED Campus Asia/Pacific: Asia and especially China have become very important markets to TKE in 2007 and earlier. But coping with such business potential requires amongst others qualified people. Given this, TKE HR set up a project to develop and to implement a corporate training center for all TKE employees in Asia. I was assigned to bring in all my expertise and together, the project team set up a large-scale training center with own dormatories and even escalators and elevators where people could train their technical skills2. HR Agenda 2015: From an HR perspective, training is just one piece of the bigger picture. Beside this, a company needs also appropriate strategies for recruiting, other development and also the retention of employees. This was the scope of the so-called project HR Agenda, and my role was rather the project management i.e. the tracking, monitoring and pushing of more than 30 single activities.
  • European Business School
    Director Executive Education / Program Director Executive Mba
    European Business School 2004 - 2009
    Wiesbaden, Hesse, Germany
    2. Since the Business School had no EMBA program, my role was to explore options and a roadmap how to establish such a high-level program. After a sound analysis and visit of potential collaboration partners in the USA and in the UK, we decided to partner up with Durham Business School to run a joint EMBA program. Before starting the first cohort, we had to design an up-to-date program, select the best faculty as well as to prepare the program for an international accreditation.

  • The Philipp University Of Marburg
    Research Associate
    The Philipp University Of Marburg 1994 - 1999
    Marburg
    The main focus during this period was my Ph.D. thesis about "Business Process Reengineering" (in German: Prozessorganisation). The starting point for the organizational analysis of companies hasn't been their structure ("Aufbauorganisation") but the internal and external process ("Ablauforganisation"). Following the idea of a Ph.D. thesis, the following three scientific aims have been followed and completed1. DESCRIPTION i.e. to come up with an analysis what Business Process Reengineering is about and whether it is really a new subject or not.2. EXPLANATION i.e. to apply various theories in order to explain why Business Process Reengineering became such a relevant topic for companies.3. MANAGEMENT i.e. to provide some input how to manage and implement the concept in today's business considering differences in terms of company size, industry etc.Beside my Ph.D. thesis, I was involved in preparing and partly giving lectures to students in the areas of Strategic Management, Organization, Corporate Governance and Human Resource Management.
