value based consulting

  • In a world defined by crises and rapid change, values make us feel connected and become the compass that guides us.

    Values increasingly shape the decisions we make as consumers, as employees and as citizens. They are the key to unlock progress towards a regenerative economy, in which sustainability and diversity, equity and inclusion are integral to every business decision.


  • At vbc, we work with companies of all shapes and sizes operating in Germany, the EU and internationally. We help them to turn their values into action, across industries including recommerce, fashion, consumer goods, tech and travel.

    Our unique blend of skills and experience means we understand businesses' needs while being able to act as a ‘critical friend’ and drive transformative practices.

    To us, it makes no difference where you are on your impact journey. As long as you’re committed to positive, tangible progress, we’re excited to help you achieve it.

  • At vbc, we are guided by a set of core principles that shape our culture and drive our actions. These principles define who we are, how we work, and the impact we strive to make.

    Impact

    We prioritize people and the planet above all else. We share our knowledge and empower others to become changemakers because we need everyone on board to achieve our vision.

    Respect

    By nature, our work to instill positive change can be disruptive to business-as-usual. Still, we show sincere respect for every individual, idea, and step along the impact journey. This fosters an open and safe dialogue where solutions and people flourish.

    Inclusivity

    We show solidarity and open-mindedness to anybody we work for and with. We establish an environment where people can be their authentic selves and create opportunities based on individual needs.

    Integrity

    We stay true to our values and will not commit to any project that compromises them. Choosing purpose over profit is part of this commitment. This allows us to be our clients’ 'critical friend' and underlines our genuine commitment to their impact journey.

  • Our multidisciplinary team combines deep technical knowledge with a proven record of helping large corporations, startups and nonprofits succeed along their transformation journeys.

    Our core team in Berlin is complemented by expert freelancers around the world to create tailored project teams for each client.

    Currently, our workplace is 60% female with a mix of nationalities (Danish, German, Portuguese, and British). As we grow, we’re committed to including underrepresented groups in our hiring process and ensuring that multiple perspectives are represented in project work.
