Harald R. Fortmann elected to the BDU Presidium
We are delighted that our Managing Partner Harald R. Fortmann has been elected Vice President by the members of the Bundesverband Deutscher Unternehmensberatungen (BDU) e. V. (Federal Association of German Management Consultancies (BDU))! Iris Grewe, Regional Head Germany, Switzerland, Austria and APAC and Global Head Consulting Ecosystem at BearingPoint, will be the first female president of the top committee.
With more than 30 years of experience as an entrepreneur and executive in the digital economy, half of which as a consultant for digital transformation, Harald brings extensive expertise in digitalization, marketing and communication to the board. He has been active in association committees since 2002, including ten years as Vice President of the Bundesverband Digitale Wirtschaft (BVDW) e.V. and most recently four years on the board of the "BDU Fachverband Personalberatung".
“I love helping to shape an industry and supporting change. Together, we want to further strengthen the importance of the BDU as a voice for a high-quality, neutral and honest consulting industry and lead it successfully into the future,” says Harald, summarizing his motivation and vision for the future of the BDU. At Deininger, we are delighted to be able to make an active contribution to the further development of the (HR) consulting industry through Harald's commitment to the Executive Committee.
As a long-standing BDU member, we support the work of the association and have committed ourselves to the quality principles of the industry association. For us, this is a natural commitment - for our clients, it is a guarantee of quality.
Congratulations to Harald R. Fortmann and the entire BDU Executive Committee Iris Grewe, Dr. Klaus Neuhäuser, Dr. Bernhard Braunmüller, Ricarda Memel and Wolfram C. Tröger! 🚀
“Great events cast shadows under the eyes.” - Udo Lindenberg. Hamburg really did show its best side at the opening of our newest Deininger office - but without around 100 customers and friends of our company, this special day would not have been so wonderful and we would not have been able to live up to Udo's motto!
Before the final stretch of the year begins and everyone is busy with client mandates and candidates, our second Consultants' Meeting 2024 took place in Düsseldorf, followed by a summer party for all employees. Once again, the weather was kind to us and after the rain the day before, we were able to enjoy a mild afternoon in the Nordpark.
