One worked with the concept of the Executive Producer , which is widespread in the USA , in which co-producers are involved in the development of films and series, with their content support, implementation and marketing - all areas of production.

Kromschröder taught at the Baden-Württemberg Film Academy on TV production. In 2005 he was a senior lecturer in the series production course (together with Joachim Kosack). In 2007, he was offered a call to today's Babelsberg Film University "Konrad Wolf" in Potsdam-Babelsberg as a professor for creative production in the film and television production course .

In addition, Kromschröder trained as an executive coach at Lorenz Consulting . In this capacity, he supports and advises executives to better meet the complex requirements of corporate management. He wants to focus his work on the targeted personality development of the manager: "The job of the producer is a permanent challenge: You have to be able to withstand pressure and also be able to distribute it - both within humane limits - that is the difficult and the exciting."
