Hans Stoisser

Beyond corporate boundaries

Hans pairs a strong background in economics/international relations and management thinking with sensitivity to the specific situation.

Hans has a rare talent for listening to what is actually being said and supporting organizations to responsibly address their needs. This applies to conducting management trainings and consultancy in Germany, Austria, Brazil, South Africa and other countries, as much as supporting a provincial government in Mozambique to build infrastructure and managing a European furniture manufacturing company. He is the founder of ECOTEC, an institutional infrastructure company with a record of successful international projects since the 1990s.

While not avoiding big interventions, he recognizes the power of small ones to leverage transformation. From his home base in Vienna, he writes about management and emerging markets in Africa.

And by the way:
