Who we are
Strategic consulting
with a German backbone.
A boutique advisory founded in Frankfurt to help mid-market companies make the decisions that matter — clearly, calmly, and with the rigor they deserve.
Our story
Klein-Keyser & Partners was founded in 2026, but the work it does has been decades in the making. We started out where most strategic decisions actually get made: inside companies growing faster than their playbooks could keep up.
Years of working at the intersection of strategy, operations, and leadership taught us a simple thing — that great advice is plain-spoken, evidence-based, and built to survive the meeting it gets presented in.
We chose Frankfurt because it's the right place to do this work: a city of patient capital, long-horizon ownership, and businesses that take their decisions seriously.
Founded 2026 · Frankfurt am Main
How we work
Four principles, no exceptions.
Evidence first
No advice without the analysis to back it. We earn the conclusion before we write it.
Plain language
Slides are a tool, not a substitute for thinking. We say what we mean and mean what we say.
Skin in the room
We treat your decisions as if they were ours. That means we push back, and we stay until the work lands.
Built to outlast us
Good consulting leaves a stronger client behind. Frameworks, capability, and confidence — not dependency.
Partners
Small team. Senior bench.
