The study Hidden champions of the consulting market of the scientific society for management and consulting WGMB enjoys a high level of attention in the market. The aim of the study is to identify comparatively unknown consulting firms that are recognized by their clients as having greater expertise in their specialist area than the three major consulting firms McKinsey, BCG and Bain.
It is not possible to apply for this award. The pre-selection is made exclusively on the basis of proposals from an independent panel of experts from science and practice and empirical preliminary studies carried out by the WGMB.
Result of the study: CPC leaves the top dogs in the consulting industry behind in 2024 and wins the award in the category "Change Management". We would like to thank our customers for the great cooperation and the fantastic feedback.

02 Brand eins /theme - Best consultants 2021 - 2024
For the ranking, 1,700 competitors, including experts, partners and project managers from management consultancies as well as around 1,700 managers from large and small companies were asked for their opinion. They were asked which consultancy firm is best versed in which subject area and has the edge. A total of 309 management consultancies and networks were named and thus made it into the ranking. 38 consultancies qualified for the Change Management consulting field. CPC has been the frontrunner here since 2022.

04 European Training Award 2023
05 Great Place to Work® 2023
The Great Place to Work® Institute honors "Germany's Best Employer 2023". We took 6th place in the category for companies with 51 to 100 employees. This year, we came 3rd in the "Best Employers in Consulting" category and 5th in the "Best Employers in Hesse" category. We are incredibly proud and delighted to receive this award once again.
This year, the Great Place to Work® Institute received 931 applications from around 422,000 employees. However, only the 100 best companies were selected and recognized for their special commitment to creating a good and trusting workplace culture. The seal of approval is popular with employers and is popular with advertisers. In comparison with the average for companies in Germany, staff turnover at the award-winning companies is 7.7% (other companies: 14%) and sick days average 8.5 days (other companies: 18.5 days). The number of training days, innovative strength and sales development are also significantly higher than the company average.
The assessment is based on an anonymous survey of employees on key topics relating to the workplace such as leadership, fairness and appreciation, team spirit in cooperation, further training opportunities, support for professional development, social integration and work-life balance. In addition, the quality, diversity and sustainability of HR work are assessed in a comprehensive culture audit. The employee survey is at the forefront of the evaluation and weighting of the two measurement instruments.
06 kununu Top Company 2023
kununu will continue to honor the best employers with the Top Company Award in 2023. The seal is only awarded to companies that have been rated particularly highly on the platform. We are delighted to be one of the most popular employers in Germany.
According to a recent YouGov study, the Top Company seal is relevant to applications for 45% of job seekers. Only 5% of all employers receive the award based on the kununu ratings of employees, alumni and applicants.
We see it as an incentive to continue to focus on a very attractive, modern and value-oriented culture, excellent teamwork and entrepreneurial spirit. Keep only those companies that have been rated particularly highly on the platform. We are delighted to be one of the most popular employers in Germany.

07 HR Excellence Award
CPC is HR Excellence winner in the "Corporate Social Responsibility" category. Every year, the HR Excellence Awards are presented to companies that achieve sustainable HR work through projects and initiatives. We have already won the award several times in recent years in cooperation with our clients. This year was no exception: we were on the list of nominees and impressed the jury with our project "Fit for the German job market - certification for refugees in companies".
"Fit for the German labor market" arose from the understanding that the integration of refugees does not end with their first employment in a company. They also encounter a culture in their day-to-day work that is very different from the working culture in their home country. Relying on trial and error here is a long and frustrating process for all concerned.
In the meantime, numerous "Fit for the German job market" workshops have been held, giving participants in-depth insights into topics such as project management, corporate values and organized work. Using a variety of methods, they were able to improve their skills in organizing virtual meetings, presenting and applying for jobs professionally.
Participation is rewarded with a certificate from our cooperation partner TÜV Rheinland Akademie after passing the final exam. This independent certificate supports the refugees in their next job applications on their career path in "certificate country" Germany.
The consistently positive feedback from participants and the high level of commitment in the workshops show us that we are meeting the needs of the target group and making a valuable contribution to successful cooperation within the company.
