Company Visit to New Work SE

After more than two years of virtual company visits due the pandemic, my students and I are thankful to be invited by New Work SE into its new and modern building in Hamburg´s harbour city. During an inspiring tour through the building, we were impressed by the innovative and fancy office concept, including creative workspaces, relaxing zones and even a “Kiez-Bar” to enjoy the end of the working day with colleagues. After this, New Workers from the group´s various daughter companies like Xing and kunuunuu shared their knowledge and experience with us. We learned how to use agile methods in practice and got insights into sales and change management approaches. Many thanks to Anna Stoffel – you and your colleagues were great hosts!

Virtual Company Visit to Beiersdorf

Today, my students and I followed an invitation for a virtual company visit at Beiersdorf, the Hamburg-based market leader in the cosmetics industry with the vision “to become the number one skin care company in the world”. It was already our second visit. This time, Julian Kupfer and Vincent Tissinie gave us first-hand insights into the company´s digital transformation program Digital Fast Forward. We learned about the new role of IT as being a proactive business partner and value generator following the mission of Change IT. Lead IT. Love IT. The strategy actively involves managers and employees through new digital and participative instruments. The goal is to create a culture that embraces change and to shape a growth mindset. Many thanks to Julian and Vincent for sharing their inspiring concepts and ideas!
