Trust, transparency
and responsibility.
Our entrepreneurial activities are characterised by the principles of honesty, openness and team spirit. We create the space needed for individuals to nurture their skills as we believe that people who decide and are responsible for their efforts are best motivated to achieve. As a nationally and internationally operating consultancy, we are aware of our ecological and social responsibility and will only ever take on projects that are compatible with our values.
Our company size and flat hierarchies enable us to work in a resource-efficient and economical manner.
Our approach to working hinges on a comprehensive exchange of knowledge, pronounced creativity, and standardised quality processes. In our projects and everyday office life, we promote cross-generational collaboration through interdisciplinary teams, the acquisition and sharing of knowledge, and the constant integration of creative concepts and perspectives. We are convinced that quality correlates with experience and knowledge – and we promote both through internal and external training programmes.
To drive participation and co-determination, in 2024 we set up a Youth Council that proactively involves the youngest generation in shaping the future of our company. To strengthen our corporate culture, the Youth Council challenges the management at regular intervals on all issues it identifies, assessing whether corporate actions are in line with our corporate mission and vision.
By setting up a Youth Council, we are creating a platform where our young talents bring their ideas and perspectives directly to bear with the management team. In this way, we can continuously and critically reappraise our progress, develop fresh and innovative approaches, and ensure that we always have our finger on the pulse of things.
We are firmly aware of our environmental responsibility for future generations and actively began optimising our office processes back in 2020 with a view to making climate-friendly and sustainable changes. Since 2022, we have been recording and analysing our corporate carbon footprint annually. This way, we can systematically record and implement potential improvements on a consolidated basis. In addition, starting in 2024 we have voluntarily published a declaration on the German Sustainability Code, taking into account the EFFAS performance indicators.
To minimise our ecological footprint, we pursue a data-based approach and calculate our corporate carbon footprint annually with the help of the myclimate international climate protection organisation. We record all energy consumed in our value chain, such as the energy consumption of our office locations (water, electricity, heat, etc.) as well as our entire corporate travel activities (flights, trains, overnight stays, etc.) and finance high-quality carbon offset projects to compensate for unavoidable emissions. In 2023, our CO2e emissions totalled 82 tonnes. This corresponds to a per capita consumption of 3.53 tonnes.
We are convinced that transparency and compliance with self-defined sustainability goals create a fundamental sense of trust. To this end, we publish an annual sustainability report in accordance with the requirements of the German Sustainability Code (DNK). The DNK is a transparency standard for sustainability reporting that is designed in particular for use by SMEs. It helps them to critically review their internal business processes as regards responsibility for climate and environmental protection as well as compliance with human rights and governance standards.

In our opinion, sustainable action and economic success are not mutually contradictory. Rather, both aspects are compatible and correlate positively. We therefore pursue a sustainable corporate strategy that is forward-looking and crisis-proof as we are convinced this makes us ourselves more resilient.
For us, fair treatment and trusting cooperation within our team and with our business partners forms the very basis of all our entrepreneurial activities. We are confident that our organisational culture fosters individuality, innovation and creativity and equally promotes personal responsibility. We are committed to team spirit, diversity, and respect.
In our daily interactions, we seek to ensure the compatibility of work and family life through personal working hours, gender equality, and the exchange of knowledge and experience between all age and professional groups. Mutual trust and nurturing responsibility as well as an open error culture, together guarantee motivation, satisfaction and ultimately the success of the whole team.
In addition to our core business, we have been supporting selected initiatives in Frankfurt am Main and Germany for many years to promote our environment and are active on a voluntary basis, for example, with the football pitch league in Frankfurt am Main, Help for Children with Cancer Frankfurt, and the Special Olympics Germany.
Our value system is based on a high degree of autonomy and personal responsibility. This gives us all the freedom to bring our individual skills to bear in a self-determined and fruitful manner.
