What I'm looking for
At Raoul Cortellini Coaching & Consulting, I’m launching a practice for SMEs in Trentino-Alto Adige across executive coaching, operational efficiency, and fractional management. I’m developing the 1% Protocol, a pragmatic approach built around small, measurable improvements.
At 2B Advice GmbH, I recovered approximately €100K in unbilled revenue by introducing a monitoring and accountability system. I also introduced chargeability and utilization metrics to track profitability.
As VP Operations at 2B Advice GmbH, I led functions including HR, PMO, accounting, consulting, and operations. I led ISO 27001 certification across the German and Slovak offices, achieving it in seven months.
My background includes international project coordination, privacy consulting, and VAT and Intrastat compliance. I hold an MSc in Human Resources Management and am ICF-trained; I work in Italian, English, and German.
