Looking ahead strategically

We help our clients to be heard and followed in the new communication culture in which the “logic of consensus” is changing into a “logic of conflict”. Today it is no longer the goal to reach the broadest possible majority, but to manage “conflicts” and to mobilize one’s own supporters for positions and individuals.

Fields of consulting

Legitimacy and Legality
If a company clearly defines its sustainable management not only as a duty to behave legally but also as an ethical necessity, it can arm itself against the expectations of idealists and ideologues and does not have to be driven by partial interests. The socio-political-ecological framework conditions make a “politicization” of corporate positioning inevitable.

Finding (re-)the Purpose and Defining a Sustainable Business Strategy
People are looking for meaning and become proponents of companies and brands that are not only reliable and trustworthy, but also stand for something bigger. The company belongs (also) to the customers who should/would like to buy its products. They need positive association impulses. Sustainability is therefore an essential part of the business and communication strategy.

Sustainable (Equity) Story: new content, new target groups
The equity story should be strategically comprehensible, have innovative dynamism and rarity value, show potential growth and increasing market share, milestones for profit returns, operational improvements and dividend payouts. In addition, the social, media and regulatory factors influencing sustainable investors must now be taken into account and valued. A Sustainable (Equity) Story fulfils an important protective function.

Our claim

Purpose

As a value accelerator, CELERES supports companies in all decision-making processes in the course of social and macroeconomic transformations. We preserve and create values – market values, corporate values, cultural values, social values. We make companies and management fit for the future.

Vision

The stock market rewards sustainable companies. The far-sighted, proven anchoring of corporate reputation, corporate social responsibility performance and data privacy & security are decisive success factors. Compliance with ecological and social principles along the entire production and value chain is decisive for a company’s position in the market.

We support entrepreneurs and companies in their upcoming challenges. In this way, we help to restore the values of the social market economy and corporate responsibility to the importance they deserve in society. Our holistic consulting approach follows a clear objective: We want to enable decision-makers and decision-making bodies not only to recognize developments at an early stage, but also to play an active role in shaping the best possible and sustainable success of the company – or even to initiate them themselves.

As a performance component, our portfolio comprises an analytical framework. First, we measure the influence of the company’s reputation and existing CSR activities on the company’s performance. Secondly, we determine which measures are to be derived to increase value development. And thirdly, we conduct a social due diligence to check, for example, whether sustainability measures would be appreciated by the relevant stakeholder groups.

Mission

CELERES pursues embedded consulting: our consultants become part of your team. With systemic consulting, coaching and training, we enable your organization to maintain its strategic and communicative course and position itself for the future. We think beyond the usual consulting categories of lawyers, investment bankers, management consultants and controllers. Because we believe that in order to optimally anticipate and manage the increasing demands, expectations and risks in the context of internal and public perception, something else is needed:
