Consultancy - Combined expertise for your company

My know-how is the synthesis of

  • my experience in management consulting (McKinsey&Company)

  • my current knowledge from teaching and research.

Selected areas of expertise are

  • Sustainability reporting (CSRD reporting)
  • Cost accounting systems and cost analysis and management
  • Business analytics
  • Controlling: planning, reporting and value-based management;
    in particular also investment and financial controlling
  • Risk management (identification, evaluation, management and control).

Application examples - Better investment decisions through simulation methods

In practice, information on price volatility is often not used for investment decisions and risks (e.g. for liquidity) are not quantified. However, companies can use relatively simple models to improve the quality of their decisions and operate consciously risk-oriented investment controlling.

The advantages and possibilities of Monte Carlo simulation for investment decisions are illustrated using the example of a cheese dairy, where fluctuating milk prices in particular represent a significant risk factor.

Example of risk-oriented investment controlling

I offer further training programmes in various formats.

Training and seminars for companies focussing on the following topics:

  • Cost accounting, analysis and management
  • risk management
