Performance durch Kultur & Führung

We found the Team Leadership Journey a valuable experience (as) it made us recognize we all have biases, and allowed us to reflect on this truth. Then, the Leadership Journey process gave us a format to create an actionable plan (as) we accept there is no quick fix when it comes to organizational culture change. (We came) to consensus on a path forward to create a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace (and) an 'action journey' where real progress is being made.

Michael Stuber has contributed to develop a very specific Bayer MaterialScience storyline (...) supporting the execution of our business strategy. Through his experience (...) he has been and is a valuable sparring partner with high credibility for our top leaders as well as the members of the Executive Committee.

Michael Stuber provided us with insightful and professional support in the consolidation of our new Diversity and inclusion strategy. His experience and proactive, holistic approach helped us to take a different look at how we do things, and build a solid business-value driven approach to reinforce our relationships with the stakeholders and position D & I differently in the company.

Michael Stuber is a passionate guide and role model in the space of leadership & culture. We first worked under his guidance on a bottom-up approach in which we engaged our supply chain operator population in a dialogue. Based on this population’s feedback, the need was very clear to create greater awareness around the topic with our line management population. Starting from the propelling performance principle and a framework of various biases, we trained our total supervisory population. In working with Michael, I appreciated very much his effort to tailoring messages towards our needs and his huge experience in what works and does not work in this space. He puts things in perspective, not only from a business point of view but also from a societal.

Michael Stuber worked with us at Arup Ireland to review our current programmes. We found Michael to be insightful, organised and very knowledgeable. Michael’s great strength lies in his face-to-face communication skills and his ability to communicate complex topics to any audience. Michael is able to quickly pick up on themes and underlying issues that may be more difficult for those working ‘in the business’ to see. His findings acted as a catalyst to the next step of our journey.

At HSBC, D&I is a business-lead initiative and as a pan-European committee of managers we were glad to have European Diversity's external perspective and input. Michael Stuber's business acumen and his striving for individual solutions helped to advance the regional D&I agenda taking into account business and country needs. We look forward to continue our collaboration in the future.

I had the privilege of working with Michael as a part of the World HRD Congress 25th Anniversary Diversity and Inclusion program.  Michael prepared a special kick off program for the event that was very inspirational and helped us start the day on the right note. His fact based insights are very impactful and an asset to any diversity and inclusion program by insuring that the bottom line impacts are visible and real. He is very dedicated to meeting the needs of the conference or program and to being able to customize and still beautifully maintain the integrity of his work.

Michael hat uns maßgeblich bei der Weiterentwicklung von DEI unterstützt. Seine Erfahrung und sein Wissen in Verbindung mit einer sehr klaren Art, Überlegungen und Empfehlungen auszudrücken, haben sich als äußerst wertvoll für die Ausarbeitung unserer DEI-Strategie und unserer Aktionspläne wie auch für die Vorbereitung von Gesprächen mit der Unternehmensleitung erwiesen. Seine Anstrengungen, die Organisation und HR-Prozesse kennen zu lernen, führten zu einer optimalen Nutzung vorhandener Abläufe als Grundpfeiler für weitere Maßnahmen und zur Entwicklung neuer, passgenauer DEI-Initiativen. Seine Zusammenarbeit mit der Unternehmensleitung im Rahmen von Interviews, Einzelcoachings oder Management-Trainings war sehr wertvoll und zielführend. Es ist sehr angenehm, mit Michael über Monate hinweg zu DEI zusammenzuarbeiten.
