ABOUT STEINBOCK LTD

Being a fluent German speaker, I am in a unique position to be able to garner precise and up-to-date information on the latest developments. I am familiar with both UK and German business practices and am aware of potential 'cultural conflicts' - and how to avoid them!

Throughout all my work, a professional presentation and maintenance of high service levels are of great importance. I am happy dealing with contacts at senior level and developing beneficial working relationships with them. I pride myself on the ability to communicate complex concepts effectively and present information, including statistics, clearly to non-specialist audiences. I have built up an extensive network of contacts and suppliers to help me in my future roles.

Two day delegation trip to the UK and half-day conference for 40 German participants in the sustainability / urban planning sector, resulting in over 500 business contacts with UK companies and organisations,

Trade fair stand and promotion for a German company in the environmental services sector, resulting in over 50 sales leads for the UK market,

The start the fourth test got my thinking about two of my previous positions – one as Deputy Director General of the German-British Chamber and the other as Marketing Manager for The Lord’s Taverner’s – cricket’s charity. You may think this was a bit of a career change but I can see parallels between the two environments. I know that there are many Germans who do indeed like playing and watching cricket. But I am surprised it’s not more popular in Germany, after all, it’s a game that complements the German psyche, especially when it comes to business. Many of my German friends and work colleagues always argued that they don’t watch as, “The games go on for days and then no one wins.” But I think if they give cricket a chance, they may even become big fans… I admit cricket is, relative to other games, very long-term. There are some critical decisions to be made during a game that can win or lose the match – for example, whether to bat or field first, or when to declare. Furthermore, a test series of five matches can stretch over several weeks so there is time between the matches to review strategy and adapt playing style. The Germans are adept at planning long-term in business – so the tactics in the game should be easy to relate to. And yes, sometimes after all that effort the match ends in a draw. But isn’t business just like that? Not everything you do succeeds, sometimes no one wins and you just chalk it all up to experience. Look closely at cricket and there are aspects that reflect German business culture. Firstly, it is a team game where everyone is a specialist. Of course, there are all-rounders, but most cricketers train to be expert bowlers or batters. Excelling in a particular role is synonymous with highly-motivated, highly-skilled Germans. Furthermore, although very traditional – the MCC was formed in 1787 – cricket has embraced new technology. The first test match with a third umpire (an umpire off the field who uses TV replays to assist in decisions) was played back in 1992. A long-term plan, executed by a team of specialists, in a traditional atmosphere using cutting-edge technology. Doesn’t that sound like the business model of German industry?
