Effective governance
Good supervisory board work requires robust structures—in processes, rules of procedure, guidelines, and the organisational culture. Taking responsibility creates trust, ensures effective risk management, and safeguards effective governance.
From our many years of work with and in supervisory bodies, we know which structural impulses enable the supervisory board to fulfil its tasks effectively and improve governance. Governance excellence, which is so important for the sustainable success of a company, arises from effectiveness and ethical principles. Our customised concepts help you to structure your board work efficiently and with integrity—and thus secure the future of your company.
Good corporate governance is the backbone of corporate success!

How we make you better
It is often the obvious things that make the difference between good governance and governance excellence. Together, they improve the effectiveness of each individual and the board as a whole.
Ensuring efficiency
An efficiency review of the board analyses corporate governance precisely and shows how resources can be efficiently used in the shareholders’ interest.
Enabling strong Boards
Managing guidelines
Policies and structured policy management are often a result of efficiency reviews to strengthen internal governance in organisations.
Enabling compliant Boards
Strengthening the organisation
A holistic view of internal governance structures across all subsidiaries protects organisations and creates efficient processes.
Enabling professional Boards
Efficiency audit
Efficiency audits of supervisory boards occur regularly in listed companies. The methodical approach to self-evaluation creates the basis for optimising internal processes at a management level. This provides an important impetus for the cooperation, composition, and qualification of the management board and supervisory board. The involvement of shareholders—especially in family-run companies—through the development of a family charter is additional added value provided by the efficiency audit.
We connect you with the right partner for your efficiency audit: from digital platforms to moderated interview sessions.
Efficient policy management
Guidelines often have a reputation for being too bureaucratic. There is no doubt that they remain a “paper tiger” if they are not actively used and practised. The trick is to formulate guidelines specifically where they make sense and create real added value.
We have the right experts for efficient policy management on our Sounding Board.
Internal governance
The business models of German multinational companies often require numerous foreign subsidiaries. International group structures therefore require clear and comprehensive governance structures that incorporate both the local legal requirements and the governance of the parent company. In the absence of such structures, liability risks and costs arise due to inefficient processes.
We have the right experts on our Sounding Board for comprehensive governance projects.
