Advisory Board 4.0

What can good advisory boards and supervisory boards achieve? Well prepared they increase entrepreneurial success.

This was the conclusion of the BEIRAT 4.0 event organized by Alexander Gedat, Michael Hauf (hachmeister + partner) and Jürgen Müller (SUITS. Group) in Düsseldorf in June.

Alexander Gedat, who has held leading positions at Marc O'Polo for more than 20 years, says that he had often experienced how not to do it. Reason for him to take a closer look at the topic. He recently became Chairman of the Supervisory Board at Ahlers AG and is the co-initiator of the event.  The Advisory Board, he feels, has been underestimated so far, poorly used and is often wrongly staffed.  This experience is the recurring theme throughout the event.

Good advice is more in demand than ever, especially against the backdrop of the current structural change.  "Decision-makers have to accelerate and slow down at the same time", says Michael Hauff, partner of the management consultancy hachmeister + partner, explaining the dilemma of the lifestyle industry.  Family businesses, in particular, are often not professionally positioned yet and do not boast a great deal of expertise, says Michael Müller, Partner at Deloitte München.

There is no such thing as THE perfect advisory board – it is the composition of the committee comprised of real experts in their field that makes for a successful mix, all contributors agree.
