About Jens Thieme

Global conceptual and strategic lead in developing and establishing, running a centralized Market & Competitive Intelligence function including state-of-the-art technological solutions and mutual global processes and sourcing strategies plus internal training to market analysts, market researchers, marketers and sales staffers. Setup and development/evolution of competitive intelligence processes, competitive and market intelligence tools, culture, organization, scope and strategies.

Broad experience in commercial roles spanning from Account Management, regional leadership roles in Market Development & Market Research (both during 5-year management assignment in the U.S.) in the textiles industry (as the world's leading specialty chemicals supplier).

Substantial global leadership experience in all past roles, espcially in e-commerce and electronic communications both in the business field and at a corporate level.

Born in former communist East Germany I made my way by trying everything under the sun and maybe making every mistake as well - but hardly twice.

Finally I got "stuck" with what I love: Competitive Intelligence. I love to share and gain knowledge and meet people who are (not only) interested in the profession and the wider field.

I did publish some work and a couple of books both in English and German. Find more details at: http://www.jensthieme.com and http://www.markintell.com/.

I also love to explore the world with my camera, see my Flickr and Picasa sites for my work.
