Interview with Jan Brandt, expert on turnaround and new business models
Material shortages, delivery stoppages, rising energy costs. Sustainability targets, digitalization and electromobility: the automotive industry is under pressure to transform like almost no other.

A conversation with Jan Brandt, interim manager and expert for turnaround and new business models.

Imagine that a company is in a difficult economic situation. The annual result is deep in the negative and creditors are demanding their money back.

Expanding the service business appears particularly promising as an alternative way to increase earnings. But what does it mean in concrete terms to attach appropriate relevance to the service business?

Cyclists live dangerously. In June 2019, the German weekly magazine Der Spiegel headlined an article titled, “Death risk for cyclists three times higher than for motorists.” The risk of injury is seven times higher, according to Siegfried Brockmann, head of accident research (UDV) at the German insurance association.

Knowledge is power and this is especially true for knowledge about future developments.

Mario Trapp, senior consultant at enomyc, shares his insights with us.
