Industry
The industry sector in Germany has grown continuously over the last few years. At the same time, our companies are facing major challenges of digitalization in an increasingly international competitive landscape: issues like industry 4.0, connected car, networked mobility or the Internet of things are shaping agendas at the decision-maker level. Not infrequently, it concerns the question of digitally transforming the current business model.
Many industrial companies are responding to this by adapting structures and processes, and are seeking cultural change to an equal extent. This often raises questions regarding personnel.
