Personnel consultant and sparring partner for medium-sized, family and industrial companies
In my 28 years of professional life, 17 of which were spent in responsible national and international management functions, I have often worked with headhunters and personnel consultants. These experiences were the basis for the foundation of Kuhnhenn & Kollegen, a network of experienced personalities from various disciplines and branches of the German economy.
Kuhnhenn & Kollegen is an owner-operated executive search boutique.
We offer strategic personnel consulting and competent support for medium-sized companies, family and industrial enterprises, private equity and venture capital companies, as well as top managers in filling specialist and executive positions.
Our candidates are among the best in their field, and are characterized above all by excellent communication skills and a high level of emotional intelligence.
We are well-connected headhunters and have a personally developed network of managers who can act with confidence at every stage of the company's life cycle - whether growth, restructuring or special situations.
We are fast because in many cases we already know the relevant personalities. family businesses rely on integrity, down-to-earthness and reliability.
A career in family businesses is the consequence of trust and self-deserved respect.we support family businesses in internal structured succession planning for key positions as well as holistically in entrepreneurial/business succession.
You can rely on our pragmatic and practice-proven advice - gained through many years of national and international entrepreneurial experience, and we also bring our "grey hair", acquired through age and experience of life, to bear. This creates the necessary equal eye level.
Experience in management and in the executive board of nationally and internationally operating companies.
The majority of them use our capabilities regularly.
