Biography

Suder studied physics at RWTH Aachen. In 2000, she received her doctorate in neuroinformatics at the Ruhr University Bochum. Suder also received a bachelor's degree in theater and linguistics there. She was a scholarship holder of the German National Academic Foundation.

From 2000, Suder worked for the management consultancy McKinsey and in 2007 took over the company's Berlin office.[5] She made a career as a consultant for the German and international IT industry and became a director at McKinsey in 2010, where she dealt with diversity management, among other things.[6][7] From 2009 to 2014 she was responsible for the company's activities in the public sector. Suder worked for several years as a manager at the interface between administration and the private sector, leading reform projects for the Federal Employment Agency and developing a concept for improving the start-up culture for the State of Berlin.[8][9][10] At McKinsey, she campaigned for an open-minded approach to different sexual orientations (LGBT diversity management).[11]

Suder was sanctioned and banned from entering the country by Russia in May 2015. Her name was on a list of 89 EU politicians; According to Russian sources, the ban was a reaction to sanctions against Russia.[16][17]

From 11 to 14 June 2015, she took part in the 63rd Bilderberg Conferencein Telfs-Buchen, Austria.[18]

At her own request, she resigned from the office of State Secretary in April 2018.[13][19] As a farewell, Minister Ursula von der Leyen awarded her the Bundeswehr Cross of Honor in gold.[13] In August 2018, Suder took over the chairmanship of the newly founded ten-member digital council of the German federal government.[20]

Suder lives with her partner Katja Kraus, in Hamburg and has three children.[21][22] At the beginning of March 2017, she and Kraus registered a civil partnership.[23]

She volunteers for the children's rights organization Save the Children. Until 2015, she was committed to the association Lesbenfrühling e.V.[24][25]

In 2015 she became a member of the Board of Trustees of the Hertie School.[26] She has been a Senior Fellow at the Hertie School since November 1, 2018.[27]
