To safeguard the quality that we deliver, we only place our own partners on the task at hand. Our added value Our partners have broad experience in roles as ultimate decision makers in relevant industries and sectors. This multi-year experience is a key condition for quality and success. Just as our procedure to evaluate every assignment with all our partners, in order to incorporate their joint expertise, we also harness new insight gained and take our best practises forward to the next job. Our think tank thus ensures future quality. Management sparring Our management sparring arrangement is an important ingredient of our recipe for success. Every partner that manages an assignment has a sparring partner to provide support along the track. In all cases such a fellow partner will have relevant knowledge and experience to be a valuable sparring partner. Such a partner is intimately involved with the assignment behind the scenes.
