Thirty minutes. Then we both know whether it’s a fit.
No sales pitch, no documents in advance, no follow-up loop. You describe the situation, I tell you what I see – and whether I am the right person for it. If not, I will tell you in the same conversation.
The right route
Three routes – depending on where you stand
Not every situation needs the same starting point. Choose the one that fits yours.
01
You know what it’s about
Then we can skip the preliminaries. Pick a slot straight away – thirty minutes, free of charge, by video or phone.
Free slots usually within five working days
02
You want to explore first
Send me three sentences: what the situation is, what should be different in ninety days, and by when. That is all I need for a sound first assessment.
Reply within 24 hours on working days
03
It’s urgent
A change on the board, an integration that has fallen through, a programme on the verge of collapse. Call me. If I am free, I will pick up; if not, I will call you back the same day.
Mon–Fri 9:00–18:00
Transparency
What happens in these thirty minutes
I publish the agenda so that you know what you are getting into – and so that you can go in prepared, if you wish.
01
Minutes 0–5
Situation
You describe what lies ahead and what is not working right now. I listen and ask questions where things get vague.
02
Minutes 5–15
Straight talk
We separate symptom from cause. I tell you openly whether this is my field – and if not, who is better placed.
03
Minutes 15–25
Execution
Two or three routes I would take in your position – including the one without external support.
04
Minutes 25–30
Result
If there is a fit, I name the starting point, order of magnitude and time frame. If not, I tell you why.
Straight talk
When a conversation makes sense – and when it doesn’t
I think it is fair to say this up front. It saves your time and mine.
We should talk if …
- you are a board member, managing director or head of division and the decision rests with you
- an initiative has been started and has got stuck somewhere between concept and execution
- you need someone who stays in the organisation until execution – not just until the presentation
- the issue is sales, structure or leadership in banking and financial services
We should leave it if …
- you need a presentation to back up a decision that has already been made
- the mandate is meant to run without the backing of executive management
- it is purely about recruitment or a software implementation
- you are looking for the cheapest provider – I am not, and I am not meant to be
Not quite ready yet? Using seven statements, the mandate check shows you in 90 seconds whether a conversation makes sense now. For individual areas, there are six self-assessments with instant results – no registration required.
Without an appointment
Three sentences are enough
No form with fourteen fields. Three questions I would ask anyway – and that improve the reply you get, because I go into the conversation prepared.
The privacy policy and the legal information apply.
What happens next
No mailing list, no funnel. A reply from me.
- Within 24 hours on working days. Written by me – not by an assistant and not from a template.
- A first assessment is included. What I read from your three sentences, even if no mandate comes of it.
- No chasing. If you do not reply, you will not hear from me again. No newsletter, no reminders.
- Confidential from the first sentence. I will sign a non-disclosure agreement in advance if you wish.
Would you rather talk straight away? Book a first conversation – thirty minutes, free of charge.
Confidentiality
Everything you describe stays between us. I will sign a non-disclosure agreement in advance if you wish.
No sales pitch
The first conversation is free of charge and commits you to nothing. There is no follow-up loop.
Response time
Within 24 hours on working days, personally. If it takes longer, I will tell you why.
