"The energy transition is decided in the day-to-day business of energy companies as well as in their processes, their products, their customer experience and their teams. What motivates me is the moment a strategy stops being a document and starts working for customers and employees alike."

What superpower would you pick?
Flying – for the freedom of it, and because everything makes more sense once you can see the whole landscape rather than just the road ahead.
In detail:
Matthias joined Baringa from PwC, where he spent six years in energy consulting. He has over ten years of experience in consulting energy companies and holds a university degree in business administration.
He advises energy companies across the DACH region on strategy, operational transformation and business model development. His work spans the definition of company-wide strategies including the medium-term planning as well as the strategic transformation of energy retail businesses and the optimisation of the operating models and processes behind them.
For Matthias, transformation only creates value when it reaches the customer. He designs customer-oriented structures, processes and journeys, has built net operator, energy sales and shared service organisations from the target operating model through to the required skills and change management, and leads agile product development for energy service offerings. He also brings a strong analytical foundation, from structure and process analysis and benchmarking to market studies on commodity, meter operator, photovoltaics and storage technologies.
Alongside his energy expertise, Matthias has worked with decision-makers at C-level and in international project teams. He is a certified Scrum Master, Product Owner and PRINCE2 Practitioner, and enjoys leading and facilitating workshops where teams work through difficult questions and challenges together.
Matthias lives in Munich with his family. He loves to play basketball and wearing his traditional Bavarian “Lederhose”.
