Who I am Markus Kurz – Strategic Communications Consultant Berlin

I'm Markus Kurz —
not an agency team, but a single advisor.

35 years managing communications in situations with no margin for error. Registered in the German Parliament's official Lobby Register. With a network that reaches well beyond Berlin.

When you engage me, you work with me — not with someone I hand your brief to.

What I do

Five disciplines.
One signature.

01
Media Relations
Press work is not sending press releases. It means analysing which information gets attention at what media at which time. Where is the story — and who wants it.

02
Public Affairs
Discreet. Effective. Officially registered in the Bundestag Lobby Register, I work transparently — yet with results.

03
Crisis Communications
Companies facing existence-threatening headlines. Clients in front of prosecutors and rolling cameras. I have been there more than a hundred times — not as a spectator.

04
Reputation Management
Your public image doesn't happen by accident — it can be built, maintained and protected before a crisis makes it necessary. Strategic analysis, building and ongoing support for your reputation in the media and online.

05
Executive Positioning
Leaders who want to be visible in the media and politics without pretending to be someone else. Your profile, your expertise — made credible.

Who I work with

Complex situations.
Discreet counsel.

I

Companies communicating in Germany

— but wanting to avoid the typical Berlin PR machinery. Medium-sized firms, corporates, industrial players.

II

Associations needing a political voice

With potentially diverging member interests — and the need to distil a coherent political message from them.

III

Leaders under pressure

Proceedings, headlines, media storms. Litigation PR up to Germany's highest courts — closely coordinated with legal counsel.

IV

International institutions

Embassies, international corporations, politicians from West and Central Africa and Asia — that need to be understood in Germany.

My mandates span global corporations, mid-sized companies and business schools, from Central Asia to West Africa, from the defence industry to law firms. What they share: complex situations requiring discreet, experienced counsel — and a single point of contact who grasps the essentials fast.
