„The only thing that cannot be copied is a company’s relationship with its employees and the employees’ relationship with their customers. “ – Klaus Kobjoll

 

Especially when signs of a project crisis begin to emerge or its effects are already visible, we are ready to contribute our expertise and experience to help restore collective performance to its highest potential.

 

What do we mean by „challenging project conditions“?

  • Lack of personnel
  • Rapidly changing external conditions
  • Frequently shifting customer requirements
  • High complexity and a high degree of novelty for the team
  • Insufficient collaboration and communication within the team and with stakeholders
  • Potentially conflicting interests among influential project stakeholders

What do we consider as early warning signs of a project crisis?

  • Increasing delays in achieving key milestones
  • More frequent budget overruns
  • Growing discrepancy between costs and planned deliverables
  • Declining quality of project documentation
  • Diverging statements regarding project progress
  • Rising number of escalated issues to top management
  • Frequent turnover in key project roles
  • Increasing conflicts within the team or with stakeholder groups
  • Entrenched perspectives within departments
  • Decreasing proactivity in team-based problem solving
  • Ad-hoc solutions replacing structured project planning – the “firefighting mode” begins

What are typical consequences of a project crisis?

  • Financial losses for the company
  • Damage to the company’s reputation
  • Demotivation and frustration among staff
  • Loss of trust in leadership
  • Increased employee turnover

On which levels do we support you?

Social Aspects:

  • This includes communication, collaboration, trust, motivation, and especially holistic stakeholder management with feedback loops and retrospectives.

Technical Aspects:

  • This includes planning, monitoring, and controlling in both traditional and agile contexts, as well as change, risk, and crisis management through the introduction of clear and, if necessary, new rules.

Your success is our top priority!

 

Depending on the situation, we focus on the following key areas:

Alignment with Project Goals: We promote a shared project vision within your organization and ensure that your project team maintains a clear focus on the core objectives.

Communication Enhancement: We help your team rediscover or develop a “common project language,” foster clear and effective communication, and lay the foundation for efficient collaboration.

Mentoring with a Focus on Project Management Techniques: Through targeted mentoring, we guide you in applying sound project management techniques to strengthen team competencies and drive your projects forward effectively.

Conflict Resolution: As external experts, we support you in identifying and constructively resolving tensions and conflicts within your project team and among key stakeholders at an early stage.

Crisis Management: In times of crisis, we stand by your side, co-develop crisis plans, and use proven methods and clear communication to create an environment where your team can work together effectively again.
