1. Target Group

LIC is particularly suitable for small and medium-sized companies as well as individual business units of large companies which aim to:

  • develop new markets,
  • build-up an international organization and/or
  • optimize their international activities


and put emphasis on:

  • an attractive price-performance ratio,
  • a low load of their own resources,
  • a consistent and timely implementation and
  • taking into account the latest business knowledge.



2. Benefits

The client receives through LIC:

  • A lean consultancy, with seven to ten consultant days, only a fraction of a traditional consulting costs. This is possible because e.g. employees of the client collect and edit the data required for the analysis of the current situation under the guidance of the consultant. In addition, the client's employees undergo an on-the-job training thanks to this approach.

  • 100 % transparency, because the strategy and the resulting actions are not defined by the consultant alone, but together with the client's team. Furthermore, it is ensured that the knowledge and experience of client's employees are used.

  • A very high implementation rate (up to over 95%), since the persons affected were involved in the strategy development and accept the measures decided on. However, as most likely immediate actions are already decided on the first day and realized, the positive effects get quickly visible.
