In a YouTube interview hosted by Dr. Harald Schönfeld and published by United Interim, Friedhelm Best, Interim Manager at BEST-inter APAC, outlines key challenges for Mittelstand companies expanding into Asia Pacific (APAC). He identifies three recurring issues: cultural and communication barriers, misalignment between global strategy and local execution, and weak integration of processes between headquarters and subsidiaries. 

Based in Singapore, Friedhelm Best explains how Interim Management addresses these gaps by strengthening local teams, aligning organisations, and improving operational efficiency.  He supports Mittelstand firms in APAC with growth strategies, digital transformation, and cross-border leadership, enabling sustainable success across the Asia Pacific region.
