The leading consultancy for laboratories
Geniu’s consultants are not only experienced, but also strong problem solvers and effective coaches – with a clear focus on laboratories. Together with our extensive best-practice knowledge and benchmarks for laboratories, these skills make Geniu the leading consultancy for laboratories (“laboratory consultancy”).
Our laboratory consultants
All Geniu consultants have many years of expertise in life science laboratories.
Experienced consultants
Our laboratory consultants are characterized by many years of experience. On the one hand, laboratory experience, e.g. as a laboratory manager or head of quality control. On the other hand, experience from leading industrial companies (e.g. Boehringer Ingelheim, Evonik) as well as consulting firms (e.g. McKinsey & Company). All of them have extensive knowledge of lean and operational excellence.
Leading experts
Our Lab Consultants are thought leaders and have published articles in leading publications and scientific journals and have given numerous presentations at conferences, trade fairs and seminars. Each of the experts has many years of experience and extensive best-practice knowledge in the optimization of laboratories.
Powerful problem solvers
Our laboratory consultants are effective problem solvers. Not only are they among the best in their discipline, they also use tried-and-tested problem analysis and moderation techniques. Combined with their in-depth knowledge, they develop effective solutions and help to anchor these in the laboratory through their implementation strength and effective change management.
Experienced coaches
Our laboratory consultants are not only experts but also experienced coaches who can guide and support you and your team with your personal challenges. That’s why we also call them “Expert Coaches”.
