Leica Camera Strengthens Its Management Board
Matthias Harsch Will Lead the New Sales, Marketing and Communications Management Board
April 20, 2017 – The progressive internationalization of Leica presents new opportunities for all areas of the company, including new operations and realignment of the sales force. The Supervisory Board of Leica Camera has therefore decided to strengthen its Management Board and redistribute its responsibilities.
A new Sales, Marketing and Communication department will join the Management Board’s Finance and Development/Production departments, with Matthias Harsch taking the lead on an interim basis for nine months beginning immediately.
In the past months, Harsch has led the optimisation project “LOOP” as a partner of the consultancy firm, candidus management consulting, and is very familiar with the structures and procedures in the company. Prior to joining Candidus Management Consulting, Harsch held various management and board positions, including Management Spokesperson for Bizerba Group and CEO of Loewe.
