Philosophy

cologne institute for management consulting was founded in 1999 with the ambition to help people in organizations and to improve their systems, their performance and personal satisfaction in a responsible way. Our customers and all other participants in the process are always at the core of our work. We want to be a reliable, fair partner: Our understanding of consulting goes beyond our original services to encompass the open and respectful treatment of everyone involved.

This motivation for our actions also provides the basis for our values:

• act out of conviction
• be curious and willing to change
• be reliable and make a lasting impact
• live freely and responsibility
• act compassionately

In addition, constantly developing our consulting skills and services has been extremely important to us from the beginning – and still is today. We focus on the academic aspect of our work, e.g. by taking teaching assignments and supporting dissertation and PhD work, without losing sight of our pragmatic approach. Only in this way can we ensure that we are creating the right solutions tailored to our customers' needs. This planned and targeted development is also reflected in our client portfolio, which extended beyond Germany's borders years ago.

We feel that every company needs to fulfill its social responsibility, which is why we are involved in the non-profit sector in addition to the consulting services we provide to various business enterprises. We support social organizations here in Cologne, where we offer our psychological expertise in the field of coaching, for example. We also assist a number of different institutions abroad, e.g. in Nepal and Africa, by raising donations in charity runs and other similar initiatives. read more
