“If my client isn’t convinced, if I don’t have a good gut feeling, there’s only one right thing to do: continue searching, with stamina. Or take another look at the situation – from a completely different angle. Check for the right fit in spots that don’t seem immediately obvious. To do this, you have to be clear about your idea, yet open, too – so you can find a solution that simply can’t be planned in advance.”
— Dr. Maik Lehmann
The expansion of modern infrastructures, new technologies, changing consumer expectations and developmental leaps, along with increasing security issues: these are the complex drivers of the telecommunications and IT industries. The incredible high-speed pace of innovation and change in this sector is resulting in ever greater demands being placed on companies and the people who lead them.
Leaders made of that very special stuff – who approach change with an open mind, foresight and courage, and see it as an opportunity – stand out in the market. They also stand out as promising talent, and we often develop long-term trust-based relationships with them.
Whether it’s providers, service providers, producers or consultancies, we support a wide variety of players along the value chain. From smaller medium-sized companies to major international corporations. With a focus on successfully filling executive and board positions as well as their direct reports.
