Frederic, tell us more about you!

Frederic, how did you get to know Porsche Consulting?

My first contact with Porsche Consulting was during my time as a working student at WILO in my hometown of Dortmund where Porsche Consulting supported a major transformation project. I was fascinated by the consultants’ personalities and the way they supported us and pushed us to the next level. I therefore applied to Porsche Consulting. After the interview, I was rejected. Being disappointed at first, I took matters into my own hands and decided to try again. I asked to work more closely with the Porsche Consulting team and put in extra effort to provide the best possible support to the project. Soon, one of the consultants asked if I was interested in an internship. Now, almost 6 years later, I am a manager at my employer of choice.

 

How would you summarize your time so far at Porsche Consulting in 3 words?

Challenge

During my 6 years with the company, I was assigned to various projects across industries. Every assignment was unique and provided a new challenge, both professionally and personally.

Master

Consulting to me is constant self improvement. Every challenge needs to be mastered quickly, I have to learn new skills and acquire more knowledge to provide the most value to our clients.

Repeat

Mastering one project will only get you so far. Even for topics you are familiar with, there will be new applications that propose a new challenge to master and I am back at the beginning.

What has been your most memorable project?

At Porsche Consulting, there is such a huge variety of projects and tasks. For me, developing a companywide operational excellence strategy for a cement producer in the Atacama Desert in Chile together with our Brazilian colleagues has been the most memorable project so far. Back then, I was still a Junior Consultant and the project was executed 100% in Spanish. This was a considerable challenge, but both my colleagues and the client treated me with the utmost respect and helped me to become effective within few weeks. It was amazing to experience the intercultural team spirit and tackle the challenges together.

What project would you initiate if time and money were no issue?

Internationalism and intercultural sensitivity are important values for me. Therefore, I would probably initiate a global student exchange program that enables every student to spend at least one year in a different country, live with an exchange family and go to school there. If this kind of intercultural exchange between nations became a fundamental part of global curricula, it would spark more tolerance and understanding for other cultures early on.
