Carsten Knoch Consulting

Overview

Sole proprietorship offering freelance consulting to organizations in all industries (private and public sector, healthcare, nonprofit) in the following focus areas: • Management consulting: Advisory services and executive coaching to help close the execution gap. Focus on identifying and building creative, inclusive, and collaborative solutions that can be embraced and sustained by everyone. As an outsider, I can help re-frame problems by asking different questions. • Strategy: Strategy is a collaborative effort that should involve participants from different levels and business functions in an organization, not just executives. This way, strategy and execution become connected, continuously integrated, and co-owned by all stakeholders. I act as a planner or facilitator using the QuEST, Brightline or SPiN frameworks. • Innovation & technology: Advisory services to help established organizations introduce product management and engineering functions. Informed by best practices such as Pragmatic Marketing and agile software development. Assistance with recruitment for key positions. Qualitative market or user research. • Organizational change: Sustainable change programs driven by the client’s business strategies, market conditions, and operational realities. Iterative, collaborative work with employees and managers to develop sensible, meaningful transformations that aim to balance business and employee needs. • Qualitative research/ethnography: Transformative and actionable insights to identify, articulate, re-frame, and solve difficult problems using a social science approach. Focus on business-to-business (B2B) research with customers, partners, and service users. Open to partnerships with other consultants, specialists, and firms to more effectively assist clients.
