Klaus Mueller, PhD
I am an executive leader with more than 33 years of experience in the communications industry, including CEO, COO, advisor, and board roles across Europe, Asia, and the United States. My background combines strategic transformation, operational leadership, and long-term value creation in both large telecom groups and smaller, high‑growth and start‑up environments.
I have led major turnarounds, merger integrations, and growth strategies for large operators, including mobile and fixed businesses, multinational telecom holdings, and distressed companies in need of strategic revival. In parallel, I have worked with consultancy start‑ups and smaller companies, helping them shape strategy, overcome innovation resistance, and scale their operations. My experience also includes board service, regulatory strategy, and collaboration with top-tier consultancies on large-scale transformation programs.
My approach is practical, human, and focused on results: align the organization, improve performance, and create durable value. You can view or download my full resume below for a complete overview of my experience across corporate, start‑up, and advisory roles.
