When product decisions
are business decisions
Portfolio silos, diluted product lines and unclear priorities result in lost margins, capital and R&D budget, as well as slowing down any transformation.
As an interim product and portfolio leader, I will structure the product development process, reduce portfolio complexity, prevent product failures and establish product management as a strategic driver of transformation within your company.
My mission
Prevent product flops!
I'm Ronny Mees – your expert for customized B2B product strategies.
With many years of experience, I support and empower B2B technology companies to strategically lead their products to market success.
My focus: product management, process optimization and transformation in industries such as mechanical engineering, industrial electronics and critical infrastructure (especially data centers and networks).
At the same time, I always keep my technical skills up to date.
My offer
My advantages
I develop individual solutions and clear, efficient processes that lead to sustainable success.
Instead of PowerPoint slides, I rely on real diagnostics, structured product strategies, strategic communication, and practical tools.
As an interim manager, consultant or mentor, I work with you in partnership.
My goal is to help developers, product managers, and investors design products that sell as real innovations, rather than just selling stuff like that!

Experience and successes
Experience
Many years of expertise
With over 20 years of product responsibility in B2B environments, I have extensive experience in developing market-oriented and implementable products.
My consulting services have helped companies realize their growth potential and achieve sustainable success. My experience ranges from the hospitality industry and airlines to companies in the field of wireless data transmission and physical security in networks and data centers.
Here's what Christian Rook, CEO, has to say about Ronny Mees, for example"
I had the privilege of working with Ronny Mees as his supervisor/CEO during a critical transformation phase, and I can unreservedly recommend him as an interim product manager and change consultant. Ronny combines exceptional product engineering expertise with strategic thinking, a rare combination in our industry. His technical depth allows him to quickly grasp complex product architectures and identify optimization potential that others miss. What sets him apart is his ability to translate this technical understanding into actionable product strategies that drive real business value." (https://www.malt.de/profile/ronnymees)
innovation
Promoting innovations
I support companies in developing innovative product solutions that are specifically tailored to customer needs and create competitive advantages. Innovative product solutions—such as a combined PowerOutlet for power distribution strips—have helped customers compete successfully and create industry-leading offerings. Today, this product is a quasi-standard and has generated millions in revenue for both the company at the time and other companies.
Here’s what Matthias Reidans (Diplomatic Council) has to say about Ronny Mees, for example:
“Translating economic opportunities into compelling, comprehensive solutions? Ronny has the answers. That’s how I’ve experienced it. Innovation isn’t an end in itself. Ronny is convinced that innovation proves its value when it is accepted by the market and generates MEASURABLE business success. Accordingly, he always combines creative solutions with a clear focus on customer value, market potential, and profitability.” (https://www.linkedin.com/in/ronnymees/details/recommendations/?detailScreenTabIndex=0)
partnership
Cooperation for success
Through collaborative work, long-term relationships are built to continuously improve product management strategies and ensure sustainable success.
Through customized solutions and collaborative partnerships, I have been able to support numerous clients in optimizing their product offerings.
An example: The specification of a customer-specific network interface for a well-known, global, multi-billion dollar cloud system provider.
Here’s what Susanne Krüger-Lampe, CHRO, has to say, for example:
“I’m particularly impressed by his critical questions and his complex way of thinking—qualities that not only enrich discussions but also drive projects forward in a sustainable way. Working with Ronny means gaining new perspectives while having a reliable partner by your side.
I am very happy to recommend Ronny—as a colleague, a sparring partner, and a brilliant mind who impresses with his foresight, openness, and integrity.”
