We at Dr. Hauschka and many other entrepreneurs are waiting for the #neuerechtsform. Who else? Economy should serve people, profit should not be an end in itself. This is one of the principles at Dr. Hauschka, as founder Dr. Rudolf Hauschka was convinced that entrepreneurship is always linked to responsibility. Hence, Dr. Hauschka / WALA was transferred to a non-profit corporate foundation more than 35 years ago. Dr. Hauschka / WALA has been member of Stiftung Verantwortungseigentum (Foundation of Steward Ownership) since the beginning, supporting entrepreneurs in order to be able to secure the long-term independence of their companies without bureaucracy. 📃 There are proposals from the scientific community to the government on how this legal form could be implemented simply, without bureaucracy, and in an entrepreneurial manner – that's why we want to support and share the #neuerechtsform together with others. The #neuerechtsform provides a suitable legal basis for companies in 'steward-ownership' or 'trust ownership'. This means it... 👉guarantees a legally binding commitment of assets (profits remain within the company and are used for business development),   👉ensures entrepreneurial independence without bureaucracy, and   👉enables the transfer of ownership rights to capable successors, regardless of their financial strength and beyond the immediate family circle. ✏️ If you, as an entrepreneur, are also waiting for the #neuerechtsform support the initiative by adding your name to the waiting list: https://lnkd.in/dx2qjys5 #spreadtheword #warteliste #wirwarten #neuerechtsform #nachfolge #mittelstand #wirtschaftswende #diezukunftistjetzt #wennnichtjetztwanndann

Want to attract highly talented professionals & overcome your challenges with shortage of skilled professionals ? Not sure where to find them ? May be you are looking in the wrong places ? Ever thought about broadening your scope & giving a chance to highly motivated individuals from: - other social backgrounds - career changers - jobseekers after parental leave - those returning after a career break - those returning from sick leave - those returning after caring for family members - expats - migrants - refugees - non-conventional thinkers? Believe me, such individuals are highly motivated. They wouldn’t knock your door, if they didn’t have the motivation & thirst for putting their full energy, potential and talents to help you achieve your business goals & contribute into its long term success. Having worked in the humanitarian aid & social support field, I have seen soooo many aspiring & committed individuals seeking for jobs but lacking the #chance If you are hesitant to hire them, because they may have gaps in their resumes or are not in the age you want them to be, etc., then believe me, you are missing out on a lot, most importantly on getting on board individuals that are: - highly motivated - ⁠very talented - ⁠have made through challenges that you wouldn’t even imagine - ⁠are so resilient that you can’t imagine how robust & resilient they would make your businesses too - ⁠bring in so much creativity, fresh perspective & innovative ideas with themselves - ⁠are hardworking & motivated to get work done -think unconventionally - make impossible possible … If you don’t know where to find them in Germany, then reach out to : socialbee gGmbH ReDI School of Digital Integration Netzwerk Chancen And dozens of other similar organizations countrywide. These initiatives truly question the status quo, think unconventionally & outside the box, believe in the power of diversity & use it as a source to attract, support, train & mentor those who truly are aspiring, have an inspiring journey & miss only on one simple fact - opportunity & an equal chance to get started. They search & find the most talented through competitive application procedures. I am extremely thankful for their existence & engagement. Companies like Union Investment where I started working believe in the value & strength of diversity too. They are active & seek partnership with such initiatives to attract the most talented & they find them. That’s a win - win for all. Thanks for the warm welcome Sonja Albers & amazing onboarding experience so far to all my amazing colleagues & team at Union Investment. I am extremely happy of my start with you & look forward to the exciting professional journey ahead with you. To all other employers : Next time you lack highly talented professionals, I hope I could convince you what else to do & where to find them. 😊✨🍀 #closingskillgap #diversifyingworkplaces #equalchances #skilledprofessionals #thepowerofdiversity
