To the Business School
Management Consultancy
You lead on a technical level. But commercial foundations are missing. You make decisions from the gut. Because nobody ever explained how to read a P&L statement. You want to conduct staff appraisals. But you don't know how leadership actually works in practice. This is precisely where the business school comes in.
The economic environment is becoming increasingly volatile, which is why adjustments to your strategy are necessary in ever shorter cycles. Upskill yourself and your employees. Benefit from the experience of our lecturers.

DeFORIS Business School.
Who is it suitable for?

Strong technically. But still gaps commercially or in leadership. You don't just want to take action. But make reflective decisions. In accounting, leadership, marketing, or team building.
Managing Director
New perspectives on strategy, numbers and leadership: make better-informed decisions and develop your business purposefully – with knowledge that can be applied the very next day.
Leaders
You are newly in a leadership role. Or want to be. How do I conduct staff appraisals? How do I communicate clearly? How do I put teams together? Practical knowledge from people who lead themselves.
Start-ups and founders
Build on a solid foundation right from the start and avoid common mistakes. Practical know-how from estimation to sales that makes your business model viable.

Frequently asked questions and answers
A business school sometimes raises questions. Particularly regarding content, procedure, and concrete benefit. Here you will find answers to the most important topics concerning participation, structure, and what will genuinely advance you in the company.
The business school is aimed at people who have started their own business or are about to do so, at managers who have just stepped into their role, and at professionals who want to qualify for management tasks. We want to reach people who are looking for new impetus and perspectives. The focus is on practice-oriented further education and training for specialists and executives in the SME sector – from commercial fundamentals to leadership skills.
The Business School covers all relevant areas for specialists and executives: commercial fundamentals such as reading profit and loss statements and accounting, leadership topics such as conducting staff appraisals and shaping teamwork, as well as marketing, communication and strategic corporate management. All seminars are based on practical examples and current challenges from everyday business life.
All lecturers come from professional practice – they have entrepreneurial experience themselves, have held or currently hold leadership positions, and know the challenges of working life first-hand. No theorists, but people with life experience who teach at eye level and know what they are talking about. From practice, for practice – that is our standard for every training course.
