Christoph Groß – Digitalization Consultant & Author
strategic & operational digitalization consulting since 2005
Master digital transformation
as SMEs – small and medium-sized enterprises
Do you also know these problems and challenges?
- Significant cost and time overruns, possibly even project cancellation in the last project
- Uncertainty about how best to proceed with selection or implementation?
- You see both potential and risks in digitalization, but how should these be addressed?
- Cloud, Agile Development, AI, BI, GDPR? Buzzwords that confuse – what does it all really bring you?
- When reviewing or negotiating a contract, you are totally overwhelmed and feel like you’re being taken advantage of
- In the project, neither you nor the provider have any idea where things are heading in terms of costs, deadlines, or results and are already more than nervous
- In the last “dispute” with a software provider, you ran out of arguments far too quickly. Then you simply paid the invoice anyway, and much more.
Bottom line: you actually need a full-time employee in digitalization or a consultant who supports your projects from start to finish, but you currently cannot or do not want to afford it.
The solution: Your personal digitalization coach
Goal and added value of the coaching
