Interconsilium Executive Search

Interconsilium GmbH und Co. KG is an executive search firm built on the conviction that anyone who wants to fill top positions has to understand people. It argues that executive search requires a particular gift, Menschenkenntnis, the ability to read people, and that only a precisely matched appointment is sustainable. Demanding clients have relied on Interconsilium for four decades when top management positions, Unternehmernachfolgen, Aufsichtsräte or Beiräte need to be filled, which is to say senior leadership roles, entrepreneurial successions, supervisory boards and advisory boards. Candidates are handpicked with a strong sense of responsibility, with the firm setting out to find the performers who will secure the future for whole generations. As a long-standing quality leader, Interconsilium combines the systematic analytics of the digital age with experience, empathy and creative intuition, and describes its method simply as listening, understanding and advising, so that a search becomes a personal, bespoke process centred on the client's success.

The firm's focus is the appointment of top management positions within a combined search and advisory project. It states that it strengthens companies through excellent leaders, thereby increasing value and securing the life's work of entrepreneurs. It regards the high number of long-standing clients and repeat mandates, not seldom across generations, as a particular mark of its performance. Published articles by its partners address topics such as presenting candidates to clients considerably faster and the attractiveness of family businesses to senior executives.

Searches are led personally by the firm's partners, Dr Christoph Trah, Dr Marc Viebahn, Dr Ulrich Lohaus and Daniel Iczek, each described as a generalist with leadership experience who accompanies the client throughout the process, from developing the profile together, through handpicked direct approach of candidates, to coaching and support during negotiation and after a successful appointment. In an age of big data and digital business models, Interconsilium says it relies not only on the structural intelligence of databases and algorithms but on the human factor. The office is at Kennedydamm 24 in the Sky Office, 40476 Düsseldorf, with contact on +49 (0)211 882 440 0 and at [email protected].
