Public Affairs —
advocacy
that reaches decision-makers.
Politics decides markets. It shapes regulation. It determines whether business models survive. Those who don't communicate at the right moment in the right way will be caught off guard by decisions — instead of shaping them.
Public affairs is not
lobbying as caricature.
Professional interest representation is legitimate and necessary — and when done well, an important contribution to democratic decision-making processes.
It's about ensuring your perspective is heard in legislative processes, regulatory discussions and political debates — before decisions are made.
The difference between good lobbying and bad lobbying is transparency.
From monitoring
to coalition-building.
From the Bundestag
to embassies.
Mandates spanning three decades — a selection.
Discretion is not an
optional quality.
Defence, energy, foreign embassies, insolvency proceedings — many of my mandates appear in no portfolio. They produced results nonetheless. Discretion towards the client and transparency towards political institutions are two sides of the same professional ethic.
