"Modern leadership culture has a performance-enhancing effect"

A working climate that promotes innovation, diversity, and the courage to tell uncomfortable truths is more central than ever to a company's success today. In an interview, Gabriele Fanta, Head of Group Human Resources, explains how the new leadership principles at Körber specifically strengthen fruitful collaboration in everyday working life.

Career management and training courses

Our mission:

Employees at Körber should be inclusively informed about all of the career phases (e.g. evaluation) and opportunities for further development (e.g. training), right from the start and throughout their employment at our company.

Goal:

We want to treat our employees fairly and transparently.

What we have planned:

Whether it’s data security, sustainability or career development at Körber — we always want to inform our employees clearly and openly about what we do and what is possible at our company. That includes the transparent documentation of work processes and data changes and the introduction of a group-wide approach to promoting the advanced training and development of our employees. Programs for managers should be based on the Körber fundamentals, including the aspects of social responsibility and diversity at the company.

What we have achieved to date:

The digitization of work processes has already been largely achieved in Germany, for example through the nationwide introduction of digital personnel files. The processing of inquiries sent to human resources management has also been largely digitized. In order to ensure an overview of our talents, career paths, and required competencies and how they relate to sustainable career opportunities within the company, we have revised our existing talent management system and are continuously expanding it. We are also constantly expanding the range of advanced training opportunities in order to firmly anchor a learning culture in our organization. In addition, we have started to align all management training and leadership programs (at Group-level) with the Körber strategy and the new leadership principles, including corporate social responsibility and diversity.

  • We promote and require lifelong learning as a contribution to entrepreneurial growth
  • Number/proportion of managers who participate in the group-wide talent management system GPS (Global Potential and Succession Management)
  • In 2022, determination of the appropriate number of learning hours per employee; in the following years, annual monitoring of the utilization of the advanced training courses
  • Preparation of the global GPS cycle with the target value of 75% of the managers participating in GPS by 2022; 90% of managers by 2023
