Kerstin Flügge and her Team

The development of Flügge Consulting

… is characterized by continuous development, characterized by a constant striving for excellence and adaptation to the dynamic requirements of the market. This is reflected in an expanded range of services, in-depth specialist knowledge and increased customer orientation, which has made Flügge Consulting an established player in professional personnel consulting.

With over 20 years of experience in retail, marketing and sales as well as more than a decade of successful work in personnel consulting, I offer my clients sound expertise.

My extensive know-how, which I have acquired through various management positions, especially at management level in the retail sector, has enabled me to contribute valuable experience to my consulting work for 12 years now.

In addition to my specialist knowledge and business professionalism, I also bring my cheerful and warm manner and a great deal of empathy to my work, which my clients also appreciate. I firmly believe that a positive working atmosphere and good relationships are crucial for success.

Despite the seriousness of the personnel consultancy, it is important to me that joy and laughter are not neglected, because “People & Culture” should also be fun!

My clients also benefit from my discretion and transparent communication – two very important aspects that are by no means mutually exclusive.

Specializing in the European consumer goods market, especially for luxury & lifestyle products, I focus primarily on the German-speaking countries and support companies in the retail, industry and multi-channel sectors with my expertise.

What my clients often appreciate about me is my cheerful and relaxed manner. I believe that a positive working atmosphere and good relationships are the key to success. This is reflected in my way of working, which is characterized by openness, empathy and professionalism.

If you are looking for an experienced and committed partner to support you with your HR and leadership challenges, I am at your disposal. Contact me today and together we can work to achieve your goals.
