Resume

Work Experience

04.2019 - present

thyssenkrupp Management Consulting

Project Manager

Worked directly with C-level clients in executing projects ranging across digital transformation, market strategy, process improvement, restructuring, and commercialization and marketing of innovative new product launch. This was possible only by creating wide organizational buy-in at corporate, regional and business area levels, often in teams with conflicting goals. Wide exposure to problem solving techniques allowed me to gain trust and coach client personnel to succeed in their projects.

 

Centralized consulting services out of Germany also allowed me to contribute to client success across Europe, Middle East, Africa and East Asia.
