Stefan Klinglmair was born in Salzburg and lives in the north of the city with his wife Petra and their children Anna and Moritz.

His marked talent for organisation was already evident at a young age. Stefan attracted challenges and difficult tasks of all kinds like a magnet and solved them with enthusiasm and passion.

At the early age of 20, he took on the responsibility of heading an entire department at a Salzburg company with an international focus. He spent ten years working in various areas, including sales, product management, finance, and controlling, where he discovered a wealth of opportunities for optimisation and sustainable development.

This was followed by another ten years working for an internationally active IT group based in Switzerland, where he took on a wide variety of tasks and positions throughout Europe. In addition to strategic development, his main focus was on process optimisation, personnel development and customer orientation.

Optimisation and digitalisation are not just a hobby to him, but a passion, and constitute the focus of his work on a day-to-day basis. His pragmatic approach and consistent implementation are just as much a part of his character as his outstanding decisiveness, his penchant for structure, and the pleasure he takes in efficiency.

His guiding principles are motivating himself and others to give their best performance and imparting his enthusiasm to young people while also giving them plenty of space to develop.
