Our success factors
Explained in a whole new way
What comes to mind when you ask people on the street about “operating models,” “team performance” or “organizational culture”? We tried it out—and received surprisingly direct, creative and often delightfully unexpected answers from people of all ages. Our vox pop videos offer a light-hearted look at how differently these terms can be understood—and why it pays to talk about our expertise in an accessible, human way.
Leadership & People Development
“Getting people to do more for less, with bigger smiles on their faces.” Nailed it. For us at undconsorten, it’s really about empowering people, fostering clarity and creating an environment where talent can flourish—so that everyone has the opportunity to grow.
Workforce & HR Transformation
“Workforce & HR Transformation” prompted plenty of puzzled looks: “Does that have something to do with jobs?” At undconsorten, we help develop people, roles and HR structures so that organizations are ready for the future—and employees can find their place in them.
Organizational culture
Bei „Unternehmenskultur“ fallen schnell Begriffe wie „Hierarchie“ oder einfach „die Atmosphäre“. Und tatsächlich: Für uns bei undconsorten beschreibt Kultur die Summe geteilter Glaubenssätze, Werte und Normen, die das Denken und Verhalten im Unternehmen maßgeblich beeinflusst.
Team Performance
“Sounds like pressure to perform…?” At undconsorten, we focus on inspiration: a coherent team journey fosters a positive organizational culture and creates a climate of innovation.
Change Management
“Yeah, I’d like to know that too.” Refreshingly direct. At undconsorten, change management means guiding people and organizations through change in a way that makes it understandable, earns their support and delivers real impact.
Operating Model
“A model? I’m not one!” The spontaneous responses bring a smile to our faces. At undconsorten, however, an operating model means something different: the framework that describes how an organization creates value—and how strategic ambitions are translated into consistent, repeatable performance.
Strategic alignment
Strategy can sound like a big word—and for people outside the field, it became a guessing game: “Something to do with direction, right?” At undconsorten, strategic alignment means exactly that: creating clarity about where the organization is headed and making sure everyone knows how to get there together.
What are today’s most pressing questions—and the most relevant advice?
Ask people on the street for their perspectives and their answers are surprisingly open and thoughtful—whether on life’s big questions, personal convictions, integrity or what each of us will leave behind one day. Their questions, answers and advice resonate remarkably well with the values that guide us at undconsorten, which include not only excellence but also humility, loyalty, courage and passion.
Questions upon questions
We asked people about the questions that really occupy their minds: “What happens when we die?” and “What is objectively the best ice cream flavor?” A little reminder of the impact the right questions can have—and the value of listening closely.
No half measures
From “treat everyone fairly” to “never do anything half-baked,” our video features people on the street sharing the words of wisdom that really matter to them. Direct and heartfelt, their advice offers a glimpse into what guides us in everyday life—and the power of simple, good advice.
Hidden Champion 2026/27
We’re proud and grateful to have been named a Hidden Champion for the sixth consecutive time in 2026/27. We owe this recognition to the people who matter most: our clients. For over ten years, they have confirmed that we outperform McKinsey, BCG and Bain in our field.
