Experience-based success factors

On the basis of many years of intensive collaboration with well-known companies and strong figures, the success factors that are crucial to any collaboration have emerged:

Quantifiable objectives are jointly defined before the project commences ("only what gets measured gets done").
The successful, operational implementation of the package of measures is an essential component of the collaboration with the client. This can be manifested through a performance-related fee arrangement.
Communication with the client is unsparingly open and based on a close mutual trust and the utmost discretion.
Decisions are taken and implemented, and not postponed or delegated and/or discussed further or afresh.
