Mastering the Restructuring Challenge

Top executive insights on how to regain industrial strength

Germany’s corporate landscape is undergoing a profound and multifaceted transformation, signaling that restructuring has evolved from a situational remedy into a strategic imperative. Traditional competitive advantages built on legacy technology and process excellence are losing relevance, demanding strategic reinvention.

The Porsche Consulting study “Mastering the Restructuring Challenge” moves beyond tactical fixes to offer a strategic blueprint for sustained renewal. It draws on 30 in-depth interviews  with executives and restructuring experts to assess which lessons learned from past crises can be applied to the current restructuring wave – such as the importance to shift from reactive intervention to proactive transformation. Restructuring is no longer a luxury; it is a prerequisite for survival. German businesses did it before, and they can do it again.
