Growing Successfully – Consulting Expertise for Startup Companies

Challenges for Startups

Rapidly Growing Companies:

In the dynamic world of startups, the need for professional consulting is increasing rapidly. Forster&Klevenz Management Consultancy offers tailored solutions to address the unique challenges of startup companies. One common problem is rapid growth, which requires quick adaptation of work processes and often leads to a need for employee support, despite limited resources. Most startups do not yet have an internal HR team. Studies show that startups with professional consulting significantly increase their survival rate (Source: CB Insights, 2019).

Capital Acquisition and Competition:

Another major hurdle for many growth companies is gaining access to sufficient capital to realize business ideas and support growth. Intense competition from established companies and other startups further exacerbates the situation. Many founders also have limited entrepreneurial experience, highlighting the need for coaching and leadership development.

Finding and Retaining Skilled Employees:

The challenge of finding and retaining qualified employees is another hurdle, especially as younger generations have different expectations regarding working conditions and career paths. Forster&Klevenz supports this with their expertise in introducing new agile and modern work methods. This helps teams work effectively, efficiently, and with enthusiasm.
