Consistent passion for excellence and innovation in end2end value chains helped a lot to create significant value for my clients in discrete and process industries as well as private equity over the past 30 years. These days refueled by AI driving the next industrial revolution. Growing experiences, recognitions and judgement capabilities over the years have been the foundation for highly interesting as well as challenging tasks performed so far or am performing, such as "project advisor to the World Economic Forum on Innovation related topics", "Intrapreneurship within Kearney building the global Innovation Competence Center as the separate entity IMP³rove", "Chairman of the Kearney Pension Trust" as well as other supervisory/advisory board roles. An innovative mind with a lot of progressiveness keeps me somehow restless. An interim documentary milestones were my books “Masters of Innovation” endorsed by Prof. Klaus Schwab, chairman of the World Economic Forum, “Best Innovators—Successful Strategies of Innovation Leaders” and others.
