DT Adds Two to Board

BONN -- Deutsche Telekom is making new appointments to two of the eight positions on its Board of Management: Claudia Nemat (42) is to take over the Europe Board department at the beginning of October. Marion Schick (52) will take over the Human Resources Board department from Thomas Sattelberger next year.

Claudia Nemat has a degree in physics and joins the company from the management consulting firm McKinsey, where she is currently head of the Technology sector for the regions of Europe, Middle East and Africa. She has already supported a range of projects for Deutsche Telekom in the past and was also involved in the development of the new corporate strategy. Nemat has many years of experience in the telecommunications and IT sector and has managed projects in Germany, the USA, Europe and Brazil.

As a new member of the Board of Management, she is responsible for managing the Group's subsidiaries in Europe, which offer both fixed-network and mobile communications services.

The subject of human resources was at the center of Marion Schick's professional career right from the start. As President of Munich University (2000 - 2008) she was responsible for the implementation of the university reforms in the first few years of the new millennium and the associated positioning of the university in a competitive environment. She was a professor teaching, among other things, human resources management. She then joined the Fraunhofer Gesellschaft where her main task was the development of a human resources strategy against the backdrop of the expansion of the research organization. In her most recent position as Minister of Education and Cultural Affairs in Baden-Württemberg, she focused particularly on expanding vocational training and the educational phase in children's early years.
