Timo accompanies you on the way from the first considerations to digital business models, through their structure and the decisions on effective agile organizations to the setting up of stable structures for program and project management. In particular, they can help you answer the following questions:

• Agile concepts and agile working

  What can I use agile concepts for in my company? Does agility really mean the end of planning and control? How can the introduction of agile concepts help me in my company and what do I have to pay attention to? How do management and agile organizations work together properly?
   

• Marketplaces and Platform Concepts

  What marketplace concepts are there and what are they really good for? Can I anchor the topic of the marketplace in a meaningful way in my business model? What do I have to pay attention to when setting up my own marketplace? What aspects need to be considered when connecting to marketplaces?

• Brand and target group analysis

  Who is a customer, who is a consumer? How or for what do customers and consumers perceive our company, products and services? What do we stand for and do we actually stand for the same thing in indirect and direct sales? How would we like to position ourselves in the future and how do we make this position communicable?
   

• Program and project management

  How do I manage extensive initiatives at management level effectively and, above all, efficiently? Which governance structures really help me and which ones disrupt the ability to implement my measures? How do program and project management and agile work fit together and how can I use the advantages of both systems for myself?

• Functional system architectures

  Which functions must my IT landscape be able to map? How do I cut responsibilities and applications based on processes and features? How will my functionalities become more modular and leaner? How do I choose the right application?
