Fields of activity

Wolfgang Grilz has extensive experience as a consultant supporting corporate culture in the areas of leadership, organizational development and personnel development.
  • Corporate culture
    Personal responsibility and accountability is encouraged and supported. If employees identify with the goals of the company, they become advocates of the organization. This strengthens innovation, encourages further development and improves productivity.
  • Management Development Programs
    Development programs for executives and identified talents are designed with the strategic objectives of the company in mind. These programs are implemented in a highly engaging and practical format.
  • Potential analyses
    Assessment Centers, 360° feedback processes and management audits ensure informed feedback and serve as a solid basis for personal development.
  • Moderation of workshops and closed meetings
    Strategic planning, team development, improving cooperation between departments – there are many situations where workshops can be valuable. The right combination of stimulation and enthusiasm guarantees success in meeting current challenges.
  • Shaping change for the future
    The design of change processes does not end with the needs assessment and subsequent development of sustainable concepts for the future. Success is reflected in the degree to which employees implement the processes. This is how Wolfgang Grilz measures the success of his consulting activities.
  • Innovation through personnel development
    Knowledge management using new social collaboration tools, new perspectives on talent management, innovative performance management, increasingly replacing control – there are many opportunities to achieve innovation through personnel development. However, this must also be put into practice.
