Diethard Engel

Seit 2012 unterstütze ich erfolgreiche Unternehmen der produzierenden Industrie bei der Bewältigung kritischer Projekte in Business Transformation, Post-merger Integration / Carve-out und Executive Finance. Als Projektmanager greife ich auf breites Prozess-Know-how aus meiner Praxis als CFO zurück; als CFO wende ich meine reiche Transformationserfahrung an. So ergänzen sich CFO-Wissen und Transformationsverständnis perfekt für Ihr strategisches Projekt.
