Cologne (dpa-AfX)-The former rudder world champion and today’s head of the engine manufacturer Deutz, Sebastian Schulte, sees an advantage for his management activity in his past. “Successful competitive athletes have in common that they set ambitious goals. To achieve them, they work in a structured manner – this also works in business,” said the 46 -year -old before the business public association in Düsseldorf. Experience from a team sport is also good. “You know that you also have to combine different interests.”
Schulte missed a medal in the 2004 Olympic Games in the 2004 Olympic Games in the 2004 Olympic Games, in 2006 he became a rudder champion in the eighth. He studied in Cambridge and later worked at Thyssenkrupp, since 2022 he has been CEO of Deutz.
