About Peter Prütting

As the leader of digital transformation at GS SCHENK, I shape digital change in a way that integrates it into everyday work and encourages employees to use it. In doing so, I bridge 111 years of tradition with a digital future. Our goal is to ensure the long-term sustainability of the values, culture, and economic success of a fourth-generation family-owned business.

Digital transformation in a family business doesn’t start with software, but with the people, their roles, and the company’s values.

My Strengths & Skills

For the past 13 years, I have been supporting family-owned businesses in their digital transformation. During this time, I have learned that the lasting value of digital solutions comes from the concrete improvements people experience in their day-to-day work.

My Values

Long-term success
rather than short-lived highs
Part of the team
through building strong relationships
Excellence
through 100% focus and commitment
Confessing Christian
through faith in the Creator and our values
