BONN and ESCHBORN, Germany, June 30, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --

Effective immediately, Marc-Andreas Schultze (38) will be directing the Industry Practice "Telecommunications" at Detecon International. As a new member of the Executive Board, he will be responsible for the current clients in the parent company of Deutsche Telekom worldwide and for all clients on the European telecommunications market. Schultze was previously general manager of the subsidiary Detecon Asia-Pacific.

Marc-Andreas Schultze has had years of experience in the ICT consulting business in Europe and Southeast Asia and has been working for Detecon since 2002. After earning a degree in business administration from the Julius Maximilian University in Würzburg, where he specialized in marketing, logistics, and information systems, he began his professional career as a corporate consultant at CSC Ploenzke AG in Bonn.

Now that the units "National Telco" and "Europe" have been merged at Detecon, Marc-Andreas Schultze regards the key challenge to be the management of the various sales segments: "On the one hand, it is essential to maintain Detecon's successful position at Deutsche Telekom when it comes to high-quality consulting topics. But at the same time, we want to push forward energetically with the establishment and expansion of our European business and build up stable business relationships."

Detecon's strengths have already laid the foundation for achieving these goals: "Virtually no other corporate consultancy can offer the solutions tailored so precisely to the market that we have for our clients; these services have been created by bundling our expertise in the areas innovation, strategy, technology, and processes and by securing the closely networked collaboration of expert professionals of outstanding global reputation."
