The hkp/// Consulting Portfolio

Performance management is a broad field. At hkp/// we define it specifically as the implementation of strategy in value- and values-oriented management systems.

To enable implementation, performance management at corporate level must be linked to performance management at individual respectively employee level. Performance management processes are only credible if the financial and HR processes are properly integrated with and attuned to each other.

With this approach, companies can create an integrated performance and leadership management system that is deeply rooted in their strategy and values. It provides them with a common language for defining performance expectations and how these expectations have to be delivered.

Every structure needs strong foundations and solid walls. Many consulting firms see themselves primarily as process coaches. We see ourselves as passionate specialists in our areas of expertise – the solid walls that hold our consulting practice together, so to speak. You will find us to be thought leaders in our areas of expertise as well as trusted advisors for top management.

We work closely with regulators and legislators, taking a clear stance on relevant initiatives. Our consultants publish regularly on proposed legislation, issues relating to financial reporting and financing, banking and risk regulation, compensation, corporate governance and talent management. We collaborate with research institutions and are involved in close exchange with leading experts in the field and various expert panels. Our consultants also teach at university.

Companies often finish their corporate strategy implementation long before they think about their HR management processes. As a result, HR management processes often have precious little to do with the corporate management and corporate strategy. At hkp/// we believe in creating a "marriage" of financial and HR processes. Our credibility as a consulting firm is based on our profound expertise in these specialist areas. Our consultants work in teams made up of individuals offering precisely the skills and qualifications needed. Together with our clients, the teams develop integrated solutions. This combination of an in depth understanding of financial and risk management with expertise in regulatory, legal and corporate governance issues, and the know-how use of compensation and talent management, based on years of experience, make the services we offer unique. For example, we are the perfect partners for devising and implementing a credible compensation system for the management board of a listed company or for the risk-takers in a bank.

As a partnership-led business, we are fully aware of the contribution that each of us makes to the company. We pay close attention to how we do our work – the foundation on which our consulting services is built. Our core values are performance, passion and partnership. We are passionate about the different areas we work in and about integrating them with each other. Our goal in doing so is to build lasting success for your company. Consulting is based on trust, and that trust must be earned. Every project we carry out gives you the chance to decide whether to trust us, now and in the future.

At hkp/// we are a partnership. We aspire to long-term relationships with our clients. Many of our partners and consultants have been working with the same clients for years, often with different people in roles at the same company. A serious approach to partnership implies a range of qualities: independence, passion, strength of implementation, excellence and reliability, to name but a few. These qualities are what define us. They are also our ambition.

Performance management is a broad field. We make it highly specific.
