1500% profitability increase over three years
case #1
+1500%
In just three years, I designed and executed strategic financial measures that increased overall business profitability by 1,500%.
The secret? Transformational leadership that successfully lifted the company’s organizational maturity level
case #2
enabler for distributed financial responsibility
During year one, I gathered business requirements, documented and tested together with business area managers. During year two, requirements, data, processes, and change management, were formed. During year three I Implemented a tailored business and financial management system, including configurations, integrations, relevant KPIs, and executive dashboards.
The Result: Empowered managers with the exact data needed to take full accountability for their budgets and performance. The financial impact? Positive, sustainable profitability growth.
case #3
from functional silos to driver based planning
In just six months, I managed a strategic project within a global organization to develop a driver-based model for financial planning, forecasting, and follow-up. Integrated with project portfolio management, this transformation was deployed across a commercial business area consisting of more than 15 global departments.
By replacing a functional, silo-based approach with driver-based metrics, the organization would achieve full alignment between strategic goals and financial execution.
