Carina Klein

  • Junior Consultant at Mandat since 2022

Carina Klein strengthens the Mandat team since January 2020 and started her career as a student assistant during her studies in International Business Management at the ISM – International School of Management in Dortmund.

At that time, Ms. Klein worked in the area of consulting and team assistance and was able to provide support and still work in the background, supporting Mandat project work and also the running of the International Brand Colloquium. After a short phase in which her studies required her to get to know another company with an international field of activity and, in Ms. Klein’s case, several thousand employees, to write her bachelor’s thesis, Carina Klein decided to return to consulting.

Since February 2022, she enriches the Mandat consulting team as a junior consultant.

Her bachelor thesis on the topic of “Ambidextrous Leadership” led to recommendations for action and findings that support companies and managers, especially in times of continuous change, in finding and developing their own leadership role and contributing to the company’s success. The study was based on an empirical analysis of the leadership behavior of a full-range retailer and direct supplier in the paint and coatings sector.

Her studies prepared Carina Klein to take a strategic, analytical and structured approach. Her family background ensures the necessary practical relevance – Carina Klein grew up in the immediate vicinity of her own family business and knows first-hand how important practical, not just theoretically appropriate, solutions are. A strong mix that makes her sought-after and popular with Mandat clients and helps her to contribute effectively.

Responsible and resilient, yet cheerful and a strong communicator, Carina Klein is an asset to any project team. She speaks business fluent English and has a high level of intercultural skills based on her international studies and experience abroad, including London and Orlando.

Carina Klein lives in Münster and plays actively for the SG Sendenhorst volleyball team.
