🚀 In today's fast-paced business environment, ensuring employees are engaged is more than just a priority - it’s a game-changer. At the Hinterland of Things Conference, the panel "Enhancing Employee Engagement: The Intersection of Culture, Technology, and Leadership" brought together Martin Böhringer, Nina Koch, and Kerstin Hochmüller to dive deep into this topic. 🍻 Martin Böhringer pointed out that relevance is key. In an IT startup like Staffbase, using engagement platforms is a no-brainer. However, in other industries like manufacturing, retail, or healthcare, for example, you need a different approach. It's all about creating engagement and bringing people together. And sometimes that means offering perks like free beer to get everyone on board! 🤝 Overall, the panelists agreed that employee engagement is vital for productivity, innovation, and overall business success. It requires a combination of relevant tools, a supportive culture, and effective leadership. Engaging employees goes beyond just the tools and perks - it’s about building a workplace where everyone feels connected and invested in the company's mission. ❓ How well are your tools integrated into your daily workflows, and what strategies do you use to boost acceptance and engagement? 📺 Let’s learn from these experts and step up our employee engagement game by watching the entire panel discussion on our YouTube channel for more insights and inspiration! 📅 Mark Your Calendars for June 5, 2025!

💫 At this year's Hinterland of Things Conference, Frauke von Polier shared some game-changing insights during the panel "How to Find the Workforce of the Future and Build a Modern Company Culture". Together with Dr. Annika von Mutius, Co-Founder & CEO of Empion, they explored strategies for attracting, nurturing, and retaining the talent needed to thrive in the modern business landscape. ✍️ The big key takeaway? Don't fear job changes. They should be seen as opportunities rather than threats. By having holistic talks about employability, companies can create a comprehensive understanding of an employee's career path while addressing current needs. This approach builds a supportive company culture where employees feel valued. It boosts morale and ensures businesses have a dedicated, future-ready team. 💭 And always remember: there is no one-size-fits-all solution that tackles today's challenges. Rather, with a "People First" focus and clear communication, much more can be achieved.

📎 At #Hinterland24, we dove deep into the transformative power of AI, and it's clear that the future of work is being redefined in real-time. The recent article by Sifted, "Future of work & productivity (2024) - The AI bots are coming," captures this shift perfectly, highlighting how businesses are navigating a new landscape of productivity and employee engagement. ⭐️ From the rise of GenAI to the ongoing debate about the four-day workweek, the workplace is evolving faster than ever. Companies are grappling with harnessing AI effectively while keeping their teams engaged and motivated. According to Sifted, only 31% of employees feel energized about their work, and many consider a change. This underscores the importance of innovative talent strategies and the need to adapt to new technologies. 📣 As we reflect on the insights from #Hinterland24, it's clear that AI isn't just a buzzword - it's a catalyst for change. Check out our slideshow, these numbers provide a concise overview of the current trends and challenges. 🗯️ How is your company preparing for this shift?

🌿 As we wrap up #Hinterland24, we are grateful for the support from our nature partner green account. Together we strongly believe that fostering innovation goes hand in hand with preserving our planet. This year, the existing Hinterland biotop was expanded to create even more space for flora and fauna in OWL. Their commitment helped us expand it to 3,850 sqm! Huge thanks to Trutz von der Trenck, Dr. Johann Meyer zu Bentrup, and Max-Kasper von Sandrart for your amazing support! 💚 The idea behind the Hinterland biotope was as simple as impactful: why not invest in local nature restoration right in our backyard? From this vision, the Hinterland biotope was born, creating a natural space in #Bielefeld. By planting orchard meadows, hedgerows, and reforesting, we've created habitats for a variety of animal and plant species. 🌎 From reducing waste to promoting eco-friendly practices, every step we take is towards making a positive impact on the environment. By offsetting our carbon emissions, we’re not just talking about change – we’re making it happen. Let’s continue to innovate and inspire, all while taking care of our planet. Together, we can make a difference. 💭 Do you want to learn more about green account, their vision, and nature projects? Head this way: https://lnkd.in/epQtWYcq 📅 Mark Your Calendars for June 5, 2025!

💰 From the right idea to finance questions: starting a business is a journey full of challenges. Unicorn and serial founder Hakan Koç founded AUTO1 Group, a trading platform for used cars. How did he come up with the idea? He had poor customer experiences when buying and selling cars and knew it could be done better. And the idea of online car-buying was a success: the market and potential are gigantic. 🌟 Start-up stories like this prove that sometimes it's the simple ideas that could grow into a company with unicorn status. It’s a no-brainer we highlight stories like these at Hinterland of Things, because they show that success emerges, especially in a competitive world, where talented teams bring a shared vision to life. In his Fireside Chat titled "Beyond Success: How to Develop Disruptive Business Models," Hakan explored the principles and strategies behind creating business models that not only succeed but also redefine industries. 💡Hakan's most important tip: Solve problems from your own daily life. When you choose a topic that matters to you, you're more motivated and have a better understanding of the needs and challenges of your target audience. Thank you, Hakan, for sharing your experiences and visions with us at the Hinterland of Things. 📺 Missed the keynote? Don't worry.
