Transformation, change, agility, leadership - just buzzwords? On the contrary: These are the topics that concern companies in todays world. But what is actually behind it? And how do other business leaders deal with this? How do they develop sustainable strategies for their companies? How do they take their employees with them in turbulent times of transformation? What opportunities and risks do they see? And how do you actually fulfill increasingly complex leadership roles today?
In our video talk format "Talking Changes - Taking Chances", Franz Reiner, CEO Mercedes-Benz Mobility, talks to leaders from various industries and sheds light on these topics.
In the fifth episode, everything revolves around embedded financial services and diversity in the financial industry. Franz Reiner's guest is a true expert in this field: Miriam Wohlfarth, founder of two successful fintech companies. They discuss the financial world in general and Mercedes pay, the in-house payment platform of Mercedes-Benz. Miriam and Franz also recommend listening to your customers before developing an idea and never to be discouraged by critics. Also, they discuss how to let a diverse corporate culture evolve naturally.
Franz Reiner meets Pa Sinyan, Managing Partner at Gallup. Their topic: strengths-based leadership. They discuss the benefits of CliftonStrength, delve into their individual strengths, explore how strengths-based leadership can look like in everyday work and address the question of whether there is a perfect strengths profile for leaders.
In this episode, Franz Reiner delves into the question of what a high-performance culture truly entails and how leaders can contribute to its creation. Joining him is the former German national football player and manager, Thomas Hitzlsperger. Together, they draw comparisons between the corporate and sports world to identify differences, similarities, and a promising path for advancing cultural change for the better.
This time Franz Reiner had a conversation with our former colleague Sophia Rödiger, who left Mercedes-Benz Mobility to found her own startup bloXmove. They discussed how blockchain technology and the future of (electric) mobility are interconnected, what start-ups and larger organizations can learn from each other, and why we need more diversity, especially in tech jobs.
Franz Reiner meets Daniel Grieder, CEO Hugo Boss, and talks to him about the realignment of his company, how he gets the team on board and what the fashion and automotive industries can learn from each other.
