    Bridging Engineering, Business, and Transformation

    Executive consultant with 20+ years of experience turning complex technologies into profitable, scalable businesses.

    I founded KISSLING Consulting to help industrial and technology-driven companies achieve sustainable, profitable growth through clarity, structure, and collaboration.

    Drawing on more than 20 years of international experience across aerospace, manufacturing, energy, and telecommunications, I combine the rigor of engineering with the pragmatism of sales and the discipline of operational excellence.

    Before establishing my consulting practice, I held leadership roles at Lufthansa Technik, Stratasys, 3D Systems, and 3DGence, where I managed multimillion-euro sales portfolios and led international teams through market expansion and transformation programs.

    My consulting work focuses on commercialization, go-to-market strategy, and cost-driven operational performance — helping clients turn strategy into measurable results.
