Testimonials
This external perception shows crisp and clear my individual strengths and weaknesses. And that is brilliant. Because some assumptions have been approved and will support me in individual growth and to improve relevant behavioural patterns. You really more than convinced me for this kind of coaching an team-building.
“Your efficient support enabled us to draw up a convincing business plan for a market entry strategy under enormous time pressure. You made three valuable contributions: first, you ensured a systematic approach with a sound measure of pragmatism; second, you provided valuable hands-on coaching for our project team members; and third, and this is what makes you different from a “typical” strategy consultancy, you can rely on your well-founded knowledge about private banking and its clients.” Andreas F. Zingg, Head Group Controlling & Corporate Development, Bank Julius Baer & Co. Ltd.
“We worked together with Nicolai von Engelhardt on various occasions and in times for many months. We fully embrace the approach of an external industry professional understanding internal challenges as well as the true needs of our clients working closely together with an in-house project team. It was this approach enabling us to develop a convincing concept and implementing it at great speed.” Thomas Blaser, Vorsitzender der Geschäftsleitung Private Wealth Management, Deutschland Süd, Dresdner Bank
"Your target oriented analysis of our actual market position and your sense for pragmatic solutions in Private Banking enabled us in the year 2008 to quickly develop and implement a successful new concept for a systematic business development. Thanks to your in-depth expert knowledge and your distinct social competence our mutual change projects in 2008 from the start reached the highest levels of acceptance amongst our staff. This contributed substantially to the timely implementation and the reaching of tangible commercial results without delay. Your ability to listen and to develop dynamic and enthusiasm by further developing the familiar and the known has been judged by all cadres as highly professional." Daniel Furtwängler, Director Private Banking, RBS Coutts Bank AG, Zurich
“I would like to thank you once again on my behalf and that of my staff for your good work during our offsite meeting. Your issues were just what our team needed at that point in time. You personally have helped us to find out how we are, where we stand and what we can contribute. Many thanks for that!” Hans-Ulrich Cyriax, Head of Strategic Marketing, Dresdner Bank
“Whatever the problem, Mr Aretz is able to formulate the right questions and understand the issue at once. He is able to provide a well-structured and efficient solution in an unusually short amount of time - and his solutions take account of all relevant people and can be implemented immediately. I have not met anybody else who is so competent in 17 years in my job.” Nicole Lehrer, Vice President Investment Consulting, RBS Coutts Bank AG, Zurich
“I do not know anybody else who is so quick to cut to the core of the issue and present solutions. I really am very impressed. Precise analysis - tailored solutions - efficiency in the best sense of the word. Thank you very much for your thorough knowledge of the market and strict client orientation - all talks led to useful results! And we could rely on you in all imaginable market conditions. MPG really sees through the eyes of its clients - nobody understands us as well as you do. Your excellent understanding of the market was key to our jointly finding realistic solutions so quickly. We have been relying on MPG's excellent knowledge of the market for years - and we will certainly continue to do so. MPG was the beginning - a professional and absolutely tailor-made solution was the end. Thank you very much for your excellent work.” Torsten Iben, Managing Partner, FinGate GmbH
“We have been working with Mr von Engelhardt for more than two years now. His thorough knowledge of banking - both on the supply and the demand side - and of financing and valuation issues are extremely valuable and helpful to us. In addition, we appreciate that he can unusually quickly familiarise himself with complex subjects.” Dr. Daniel Arnold, CEO, Deutsche Reihenhaus AG
“Mr Aretz helped me to transform our brainchild into a realistic structure and subtly pointed out potential problems. In the end we did not only integrate new procedures into our sales process, but introduced a new, cross-departmental structure, which was perfectly tailored to our new sales model. We are very grateful for his good work, his open and honest suggestions and his well-structured approach!” Christian Decker, Managing Partner, Entdecker GmbH
“Constructive, very exact during the analysis and the subsequent procedure. I have been benefiting from the results long after the consulting period.” Christoph Freund, Sales Marketing, Coca Cola Deutschland
“I would like to thank you again for your active and committed work in organising and chairing our annual meeting. Once again the event was a huge success, all team members came back highly motivated and are enthusiastically implementing the decisions. It was a good idea to whittle down the 'long list' to a few crucial issues. The first results are already visible and keeping the motivation alive. We are looking forward to the next annual meeting!” Stefan Decker, Managing Partner, Entdecker GmbH |
