BIEDENBACH
MODERN GOVERNANCE EXPERTS
THE REALITY
When there is a lack of time, essentials are neglected and risks increase.
The core problem
Too many topics, too little time – boards and mandate holders struggle with overloaded agendas and endless meetings. Instead of clarity, there is operational stress, and strategic issues are neglected. In the end, there is no time to make genuine progress with the essentials.
The consequences
Decisions are delayed because there is no focus. Strategic opportunities are missed, while the operational stress sets the pace. In the worst case, liability risks arise – and trust in the work of boards disappears.
The solution
We reduce complexity and create clarity – with clear priorities and streamlined processes. Boards and mandate holders regain time and keep the focus on strategically important topics. This creates space for excellence, security and sustainable success.
For companies
Modern governance means more than control – it creates clarity, strengthens collaboration and drives the value of the company. We support companies in making their boards strategic drivers – efficient, secure and future-oriented.
For mandate holders
Mandate holders are faced with the challenge of taking responsibility under great pressure and with limited time. We strengthen you in your role, provide clarity when making decisions and ensure that you can act with confidence, composure and focus.
"Board work is becoming increasingly complex – for supervisory board members and for companies alike. I have been working with BIEDENBACH in a spirit of mutual trust since 2016 and I simply couldn’t do without their excellence, expertise and integrity."
(Member of the Supervisory Boards of Henkel, Siemens Energy and Adobe and of the Boards of directors of Johnson Controls International, Russell Reynolds, President of the American Chamber of Commerce in Germany, etc.)
"As an active CFO, I appreciate BIEDENBACH’s extremely competent work. All topics are processed state-of-the-art and the latest knowledge is proactively incorporated in order to constantly achieve the best solutions. There is no comparable service with such a holistic approach. They are people you really enjoy working with."
(Member of the Board of Management and CFO of ANDREAS STIHL AG & Co. KG, Chairwoman of the Audit Committee of SAF-HOLLAND SE and Hensoldt AG, and Chairwoman of the Board of Wegmann Unternehmens-Holding GmbH & Co. KG)
“I’ve been working on with BIEDENBACH on complex governance issues for years. 100% independence cannot usually be achieved by internal resources in the company. They are sparring partners, reduce structural risks (e.g. in the case of liability issues) and take an active role in ensuring the future viability of both the boards and companies they work with."
(former CEO of thyssenkrupp AG and member of the Supervisory Board of Siemens AG, the Board of Directors of VOLVO AB and Rio Tinto plc. as well as the Board of Trustees of the Carl Zeiss Foundation)
