In order to be successful in the future, every organization must continually change its organizational structure, its infrastructure, processes and the IT. Our executives know that any transformation requires a sustained effort over a long period of time that cannot solely be delegated to external consultants. They know the obstacles and pitfalls from their own experience, speak the languages of IT, human resources and other specialist areas and are therefore able to provide you with the best possible support in your transformation efforts.

The successful implementation of new business strategies or digital transformation initiatives requires employee buy-in and commitment – to be achieved through active change management. Our executives have successfully led or supported various radical and evolutionary changes, and have witnessed how vital an effective change management is for the success of every initiative.

What distinguishes us:

The combination of industry and function-specific experience instead of the use of available permanent employees who have to be utilized to capacity
Performance-related remuneration of the results and not of the work units performed

Detailed assessment of the willingness within staff and the impact of change
Continuous, open, and goal-oriented dialogue

There are indisputable similarities between management consultancy, interim management and recruitment for temporary and permanent positions: It is always important to have a precise understanding of the required experience and skills as well as the know-how where those can be found. That’s why we use our recruiting and staffing expertise both for our consulting engagements as well as for searching for candidates for our clients and network partners.

What distinguishes us:

Success-based remuneration – why pay for us to identify a certain number of contacted candidates? We only want to be rewarded for a successful placement.
Experienced executives use their network and assess the qualification of potentially interesting candidates
Crowdsourcing via our network(s), social media and numerous freelancer databases

Examples of related services:

In this way, we ensure fast, flexible and cost-effective, success-based results in

Interim engagements and permanent appointments of executives and specialists
Temporary employment
“Temp-to-perm “-solutions with consultants who change to a permanent position with the customer
“Co-working” of part-time or interim specialists for the professional bridging of longer absences of employees

Rapid changes, frequent upheavals and increasing complexity in the working world have led to establishing coaching and mentoring as important measures for situation handling, self-reflection and personal development in recent decades.

In an environment with numerous coaching associations and hundreds of different coaching training courses, whose lack of scientific foundation is repeatedly criticized, CROWDCONSULTANTS relies on a pragmatic, yet proven approach: experience and success instead of diffuse methodological competence. In our company, successful executives pass on their experience – even those resulting from personal defeats or decisions which have turned out rather bad in retrospect. We are convinced that experience is more important than theoretical methodology.

What distinguishes us:

Coaching / mentoring by successful executives, individually selected according to situational experience, personality as well as industry and functional competence
Success-based remuneration – we believe in the competence of our executives and that the situational experience of a former executive cannot be defined by standard fees. Therefore, we adapt our fees to the respective situation – with a performance-related component

Individual short or long term coaching
Team coaching as an element of change initiatives
Introduction and development of internal mentoring networks
Professional mentoring by functionally- and/or industry-experienced executives
Career mentoring for individual support before, during or after career changes
