Good to know!
How do you get onto Brand Eins’ best list?
The nomination for the Brand Eins Best List is based exclusively on recommendations from consultants and clients and is the result of an extensive survey. For the Best List 2025, 6,658 partners and principals of management consultancies were contacted via their personal e-mail address and invited to take part in the survey.
1,713 people completed the questionnaire.
In order to be included in the list, you first have to be mentioned frequently by representatives of other consulting firms in the first round of the survey. What can you do to end up on the best list? Nothing. Except good work. The quality of advice must be recognized by clients and competitors. Only their recommendation leads to a place on the list.
The opinions and assessments of customers and clients are then collected in a second round.
1500 senior executives from companies of all sizes and 280 senior executives from DAX, M-DAX, S-DAX and TEC-DAX companies were asked to record their experiences. The exact methodology can be viewed here.
In this way, we were recognized in the “Energy & Environment” category – a success that we particularly appreciate. This list includes well-known industry leaders and it is an honor to be included once again.
A big thank you to everyone who has placed their trust in us and made this success possible!
