He holds an MBA with a focus on general management and has completed several university certificates in leadership, quality and project management and media didactics, is a trained business journalist and lives as a publicist and communications consultant with his family in Mönchengladbach.
After completing his studies, Peters worked for many years in the editorial department for special topics at a large Rhineland publishing house and has been self-employed since fall 2017 (Klare Botschaften - Beratung für Unternehmenskommunikation und Strategie). He writes about business, finance, tax and law, focuses on advising professional service firms, financial services and real estate companies on strategic communication and positioning and is active as a supervisory board member, editor and author of scientific publications.
