Executive FAQ Wolfsburg
Do you have experience with VW structures?
Yes, we know the complexity of the matrix, the power of the brand management boards and the importance of „corporate German“.
Do you also coach suppliers (Gifhorn/Braunschweig)?
Absolutely. When VW coughs, the suppliers suffer. We help managing directors of suppliers to adapt their strategy and conduct tough but fair negotiations.
Can we meet outside the factory?
Highly recommended. In Wolfsburg, „the grapevine has ears“. We often meet in Braunschweig, Hanover or completely digitally to preserve your anonymity.
