Just as products, raw materials, materials and printing techniques move with the times, the organisational structure of a company must also be updated. This is why the printing house Samson Druck decided to restructure its internal processes and clearly distribute areas of responsibility as part of the upcoming generational change in many key positions. “We are a family business with many young but also some long-standing employees in key positions. My uncle Gerhard Aichhorn has been running Samson Druck for over 40 years and has led the company to success. Some of our most experienced employees have been with the company for a similar length of time and will be retiring in the foreseeable future or have recently retired. They all have a wealth of experience. As the next generation, my cousin, Lisa Frost, and I see it as the aim of the project to retain this valuable wealth of experience and transfer it to the next generation. At the same time, we want to combine this experience with the skills of our many young employees,” says Markus Ramsbacher.<\/p>\n
The challenge in restructuring the company is therefore not just the transfer of knowledge. Employees with experience and expertise should also be able to develop in the operational business in order to be involved in strategic processes and decision-making. “I have previously worked in other companies and have seen how the management structure is supplemented by an ‘expert council’ and how it works well. As part of our project, we are training employees in this regard and forming a management circle that reflects the experience and expertise of all relevant areas. In this way, we can ensure that we make the best possible decisions together in the future,” says Markus Ramsbacher. “We have brought in external help for this. We are working with a consultant to work out what happens in the individual departments, what role which employees have, where their tasks and responsibilities lie, as well as tips and tricks. We also want to find out how the team assesses individual operational and strategic issues and what adjustments we can make as a result. This is the structural side of the project. We are working with a second consultant on the upskilling of our team. We want to empower our team leaders to lead their teams not only operationally, but also strategically.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
