The Brief
What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.
How can RheinMetall AG reform its board composition to enhance governance quality while preserving family influence and complying with co-determination?
This is not a case study exercise. It is the work a consultant does when a client needs a recommendation backed by evidence. That distinction matters to every hiring manager who has seen candidates recite Porter's Five Forces and none who have built a recommendation a client would actually pay for.
When you finish, you will have something most graduates do not: a real-world deliverable, verified by Ewance, that you can show to a hiring manager and say "I did this. Here is the proof."
Earning criteria — what you'll demonstrate
- Analyze board composition theories in a family-firm context
- Evaluate the impact of co-determination on governance effectiveness
- Design a succession planning process aligned with agency and stewardship theory
- Balance shareholder rights with stakeholder interests in a concentrated ownership setting
