Global Summit on Corporate Sustainability
Bringing the World to Prague Because There Is No Time to Waste

Imagine a conference where major experts and representatives from government, corporations, SMEs and start ups as well as NGOs meet to discuss common responsibility and actions to be taken to improve the lives of population coming from all over the world as well as from the Czech Republic. The issues debated and suggested do not concern projects and populations in faraway countries of Africa and Asia, but specific projects are shared that make a difference to people in the Czech Republic, such as the case of SAP and its Autism at Work initiative.

Imagine a conference that takes place not at an expensive five-star hotel, but in inspirational premises of the National Gallery.

Imagine a conference where panels are gender balanced; in many cases the organisers actually had to look for men to participate.

Imagine a conference, where the key note speaker, Dr. Tererai Trent, is the one of the most internationally recognised voices for quality education and women’s empowerment and the one of the most popular hosts of Oprah Winfrey.

Imagine a conference that serves vegetarian food to reduce carbon footprint, has music entertainment during the breaks and visual recordings to remind attendees of key messages.

Lucie Mádlová

Meet the woman who made it all possible on May 4, 2016 in Prague. It is a pleasure to introduce you to Lucie Mádlová, the Global Compact Network Czech Republic Representative and Executive Director of Association of Social Responsibility.

Lucie, how do you perceive today’s world?

It is wonderful how many opportunities and how much beauty we can enjoy in today’s world. It is beyond comprehension that we do not appreciate what is given, and by excessive, rakish consumption and unsustainable behaviour we are destroying lives of future generations. The more we have, the more we desire. We buy things we do not need, we are destroying natural resources, and our behaviour has a substantial impact on climate change. The data is more than worrying. More than a billion people does not have access to drinking water, while to many of us it literally trickles through our fingers. Three billion kilograms of food are wasted annually, while more than 795 million people are suffering from starvation. We are going to theatres to see disaster movies, not admitting to ourselves we might watch a harsh reality of upcoming days, unless we reconsider our unsustainable behaviour.

How do you perceive the role of the Czech Republic?

Regarding sustainability we are barely scratching the surface. We still have plenty of room for improvements and for inspiration from more developed countries. Our recent study showed that in the interest of sustainability people of the Czech Republic mostly save energy, avoid wasting food, save tap water, and sort waste. The study also confirmed that in comparison to 2013, people are more engaged in global issues in general. In addition, the data shows that 4 out of 5 Czechs think the government should be involved in reaching new Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and 3 out of 4 would also include the private sector. It should be mentioned that a young, emerging generation is the one most interested in those topics which fit into its lifestyle. I consider it a positive trend; young people are not selfish, they are considerate and thoughtful, which is a great opportunity for employers. Young people want to work for a society which shares the same values, and social responsibility of their potential employer is a crucial criteria for many of them.

How does it happen that you manage to bring attention to the topics of corporate sustainability to the Czech Republic, to the country where population believes it’s primarily government’s responsibility to fulfil Sustainability Development Goals?

New Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were unanimously adopted by the UN member states (including the Czech Republic) in September 2015 with the objective to build a better future for everyone. SDGs clearly sets a direction for upcoming 15 years, leading to eradication of poverty, to a struggle with inequality, and to security of our planet. The wording of SDGs is a result of a collaboration of not only the UN member states, but also representatives of civil society, private sector, and academia of all continents. So, at the Summit Global Compact 2030, we did want to demonstrate to the private sector that SDGs bring opportunities for contributions to not only a better and sustainable future, but also for new investments.

The gender equality is one of the 17 goals, implied in many others. Are you in favour of quotas or do you suggest another approach for companies? And how do you see the fact that women often do not support women?

Women in the Czech Republic, on average, earn 22% less than men in the same occupation. More than 95% of CEOs of global corporations are men. Current projections show women will not have the same economic opportunities as their male counterparts until 2096. Certainly, something must be done about this. However, I am not sure whether the quotas are the best solution. In recent years companies themselves set ambitious goals to support equality of opportunity within their organisations and within their respective countries. And they are starting to realise that their investments into equality are returning. For example, in 2015 the leading management of Unilever consisted of, for the first time in history, mainly female managers. This is supported by a whole range of global campaigns advocating gender equality in a workplace such as HeForShe or UN Women. The campaign urges men to speak out against any form of discrimination or violence against women in their workplace or in their private life. Many significant figures and representatives – men – of the private and the public sector from all over the world are actively supporting the initiative.

Being able to witness your energy and dedication, and knowing that you are a mother of a 4-year-old daughter, what is your approach to work-life balance?

Honestly, work-life balance is one of the few things I struggle to get under control. I take work home with me, I go to sleep thinking about it and I am waking up with it. On the top of that I share an office with my husband, so our private life and our work life are fairly blended to a certain extent. And even when we find a moment only for ourselves, we manage to come up with new, interesting ideas, especially in the evening while having a bath or before falling asleep. Even though recently I feel like I am so exhausted I fall asleep even before we say goodnightJ. Mia was 8 months old when I founded the association. I worked during a part of a day she was sleeping, and then overnight. Now, she goes to a preschool but I am trying my best to spend some quality time with her whenever I can. Moreover, we devote Fridays only to ourselves, spending some good chunk of time together.

What are your final words for Czech and Slovak Leaders readers?

The way to sustainability is in our common interest. SDGs bring the most solid plan to date for new companies to find opportunities regarding the challenges of a modern society. And we are not talking charity here. Effective inclusion of sustainability into a business strategy requires a serious commitment. Cooperation is also vital. Companies must understand that cooperation – even with their competitors – is necessary, followed by common investment into common goals, facing systemic challenges. As one African proverb says: If you want to go fast, go alone; if you want to go far, go together.

“When you don’t get any better you stop being good.”

Ing. Zdeněk Reibl, MBA.

The largest Czech-Slovak insurance broker for companies and entrepreneurs. 23 years on the market. 54,000 insured events resolved annually. Nearly CZK 7 billion in mediated insurance per year – this is RESPECT, a.s., established 23 years ago based on the model insurance brokers who were usually part of the team of every business in the world. A few foreign insurance brokers were operating in the former Czechoslovakia and later Czech Republic, but there was practically no Czech brokerage company. That led to the decision taken by Ing. Zdeněk Reibl, MBA and his partner Tomáš Urban to establish the Czech insurance company RESPECT, a.s. that would adapt to meet local needs while following western trends, in particular in its approach towards the client. And it succeeded.

You won the Broker of the Year award in both 2014 and 2015 – 1st place. Congratulations on your success. What is the recipe for being a successful insurance broker in the Czech Republic?

It flatters us to have been awarded the first prize in the category Broker of the Year two years in a row in such a prestigious and generally recognised industry competition. We very much appreciate it, but we know that even greater and harder work awaits us, and that we have to keep working on ourselves. Dalai Lama once said that pessimism leads to failure and I believe that to be a broad truth. Everything starts with optimism and hard work, the rest inevitably falls into place. The jury comprised of experts from various insurance companies assessed for example the quality of supplied materials to insurance companies, the level of communication between us and the client and between us and the insurance company, corporate culture and many other aspects, on which we place great emphasis in RESPECT. This also relates to high demands we put on our colleagues working in the company. However, the biggest rewards for me personally are satisfied clients who feel they are in ‘good hands’ thanks to our service and products, and of course our colleagues who enjoy working in RESPECT and are proud to be a part of the team and the RESPECT Group brand in the Czech Republic and Slovakia.

How were the early days of doing business – insurance brokerage, in the former Czechoslovakia?

We were full of vigor, ideals and a desire to prove that if it works abroad, it simply must work at home. We drew inspiration from the London brokerage firm Minet. In 1993, we began in an apartment with just one car, a landline and registered capital of just a few Crowns. Our sole communication tool was Yellow Pages, we were our own marketing and we had a great desire to change the market and the way businesses think. Of course, we ran into barriers such as “insurance brokerage service is pointless, because clients could obtain the same services directly through the insurance company, so why should they need a broker?” However, the mood in the company quickly changed, people began exploiting opportunities and doing business in any segment with any goods – this was associated with inherent risks that nobody knew too much about and that needed to be resolved in time, to be insured or at least partially managed. It became important to be informed and have the flexibility to always be there by the client’s side; this was a key breakthrough and the added value of an insurance broker. When you are dealing with an issue, an insured event, which disrupts you and threatens continuity of your business, you want to resolve it immediately and not wait till ‘some’ institution opens its doors for business so you can go in and start arguing. Back then we sensed that flexibility and time would be decisive.

What is RESPECT Group like today?

Besides having earned the Broker of the Year award for 2015, today we also rank among the TOP 5 insurance brokers for B2B in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. We have an enormous yet compact team of brokers who remain on a constant learning curve in terms of the insurance market and provide flexible services to clients’ businesses. They expect the unexpected, and this is especially important for setting up insurance programmes which are like a hand-made product. They are never the same because every business segment is different and therefore requires a custom-designed insurance programme. We were ahead of the times in many ways in relation to our motto and consequent changes introduced by the new Civil Code. Since our very start, we have been advocating acceptance of personal responsibility for the work we do in accordance with our motto: “We accept personal responsibility for insurance quality”. The work of an insurance broker is hard; one must be prudent and have attention to detail. Simply put, it has to be someone with a strong personality. We also know that a successful company changes before it has to, so we have ‘rejuvenated’ our logo this year and revamped our corporate identity, in part because we are entering the third decade of the company’s life, and because it is necessary to constantly improve and develop ourselves. Gradual consolidation of individual companies and branches of RESPECT into the holding group and under the RESPECT Group brand brings even greater flexibility and possibilities for our clients regardless of where their companies are located.

In 23 years of work on the insurance market, you have been able to build a strong premium brand. What products are businesses most interested in?

Naturally, the greatest interest remains in products without which no business could function – insurance covering assets, fleets and last but not the least, personal liability insurance. Beside this, however, in light of the often very specific lines of business, specialised products are also coming on strongly, such as credit insurance and D&O. In 2015, we saw a rising demand from clients in covering cyber risks; nowadays it’s not enough to only have a password. Cyber risks threaten company data in computers and mobile phones alike, and are just as real as e.g. damage to property or health. And with the rising digitalised age, risks will only increase. We could go on and on – everything can be insured and risks appear in all areas of any business. We always search for simply the best solution for our clients based on their true needs. Our undeniable advantage is also the fact that we do not need to limit ourselves only to the possibilities of the local market, but thanks to our long business relationships, we have forged partnerships abroad as well, where in certain areas, the offer is somewhat more diverse than it is here right now.

What makes you different from the other insurance brokers?

Definitely the fact that we are a Czech family business with a tradition, which however does not lose its drive abroad. We are the only corporate broker representing the Czech and Slovak Republics in the worldwide broker network UNiBA, and we are capable of acquiring insurance through locally established partners around the world. Within our company, we have also established the RESPECT ACADEMY, a unique education system for our clients, with whom we share the latest information and news from the world of insurance and insurance products. We also discuss with them examples of solutions to insured events based on practice, thus enabling them to share experience among themselves.

Where do you see RESPECT in 10 years?

Thanks to our long-term planning, vision and strategies, I believe that we will remain one of the top insurance brokers, and a sought-after and traditional partner to our clients. I always say with slight exaggeration that RESPECT was here, is here and will be here for another 100 years, and this is one of my secret wishes. To achieve this, we will need to be continuously fortunate with our employees, good partners in terms of insurance companies, as well as with high-quality competition as thanks to them, we are always trying to move ahead and come up with innovative ideas.

Burnout… Why you can’t afford to ignore this issue

It’s always gratifying to read about a situation you predicted more than 4 years ago. It is also frustrating to realize not much has changed.

When I wrote Can You Afford to Ignore Me? one of the issues I pointed out is that women and millennial men and women entering the work force have always looked at work beyond compensation. And, one of the contributing factors to cause them to walk away from their job was burnout, which implies a feeling of not seeing a future for themselves at their job based on the expectations and conditions associated with a 24/7 connectivity.

Many managers interpret this as laziness or lack of commitment, when in fact it is more about a desire to create a balanced life so they can contribute effectively to the workforce.

The data related to engagement in the US is clear – only 3 out of 10 employees are engaged at work. This impacts productivity, innovation and long term commitment to the organizations.

A recent article published in Fast Company magazine shows the following research: The trend of young women burning out by the age of 30 is very real and unfortunately common. A study by McKinsey shows that women account for 53 % of corporate entrylevel jobs, but women only hold 37 % of mid-management roles. That number drops to 26 % for vice presidents and senior managers, indicating a major gender disparity higher up the corporate ladder. As only 11 % of women choose to leave the workplace permanently to have children, another reason for this gap can be traced to high expectations companies place on employees in always-connected work environments.

If you read closely, you see women DO NOT leave work due to family issues or parenting interests, they move or go into other business options because they are feeling a high degree of demand on their time, all the while, looking at layoffs and downsizing. The natural response is… Why am I doing this? I’m giving all of my time and how do I know if my efforts will be appreciated?

The same is true with millennials. Here you have a great quote that sums this scenario in a very insightful way; Melanie Shreffler formerly at Ypulse (currently the Senior Editorial Director, Cassandra Report) tells Forbes, “You can’t see the end of the tunnel because there are so many twists and turns. It’s impossible to see what life will be like in 20 years these days. It’s hard to look just three to four years in the future. They don’t know what they are striving for, which makes it really hard to move forward.”

We are transitioning into a new work style, and I think it’s more human and yields higher returns…Can you afford to ignore this?

Communicating effectively in times of change

Change is the only constant in life or as some say, change is a fact of life. My company goes through a major change every other year, so communicating change has become an almost daily routine for me.

At times I hear people refer to change communication and change management interchangeably although these are two different things. Some of you may know the John P. Kotter’s famous eight-stage model for change and its management. Change management is a structured approach to help individuals and teams adopt new methods and embrace different reality in the workplace, as well as ensure that changes are thoroughly and smoothly implemented, and that the lasting benefits of change are achieved. It consists of multiple components that Kotter outlined, starting with establishing a sense of urgency and finishing with instituting a change. However, what about the people we are taking with us on a change journey? How are they affected?

When explaining the impact of change on employee behaviours, I like using the Kübler-Ross five stages of grief, developed as a result of working with terminally ill patients, which are applicable to any transformation individuals go through:

Communication is one of crucial elements of change management. If done right, communication raises the level of understanding of what is happening, what it means for the organisation and ultimately for the individual, what role employees will play in the change process, and also manages their expectations. Based on the Towers Watson change and communication ROI study, organisations with effective change and communication management are 3.5 times as likely to significantly outperform their peers. So, how do we go about communicating change?

Overall, there are three phases to consider:

Preparation – you need to have a solid strategy and a detailed plan with concise and simple key messages. Try to understand your employees’ concerns – do not forget you are taking them on a journey and you want them to follow closely, not to lag behind. This can also be an ideal opportunity to offer coaching to your leaders and provide supporting materials to line managers to ensure they understand how to deal with what employees are going through.

Drive – use multiple channels to communicate and align the organisation with the change – people consume information in different ways and you are trying to make all employees understand what is happening. Establish a two-way communication. One of Stephen Covey’s Seven Habits of Highly Effective People is ‘seek first to understand, then to be understood’ which captures the value of listening in communication. So, communicate openly and honestly with an opportunity for feedback as people want to feel they are part of the process. You can also target influential leaders and managers to help drive the change.

Reinforcement – in this phase you repeat some of what has been communicated, tell success stories, lessons learned, inform on progress of the change taking place, and celebrate successes. This is also a perfect moment to say thank you to your people. Recognition is paramount in times of change, so people need to see their efforts are appreciated and valued, which will encourage them to keep up the good work.

Change is difficult and can be challenging for even the most experienced of leaders. While there’s certainly an adjustment period involved, if we lead from a place of understanding and clarity, we will achieve positive outcomes. Good communication contributes to eliminating people’s fears of and resistance to change.

Remember, communication is happening even when we are silent; such approach, however, can generate rumours which may negatively impact productivity as well as retention. It is easier to build awareness and understanding of an upcoming change by communicating clearly from the start than fixing a negative impact of silence later on. Based on my experience, best results are produced when we proactively and consistently keep our teams informed – effective communication can help successfully sail the ever-changing and sometimes rough waters of a company environment.

The Summer Garden Party was preceded by the Moravian Silesian Region’s Investment Seminar, organised by the Moravian-Silesian Region and the Regional Development Agency, the CzechInvest Agency in the UK, and the CBCC. The region’s representatives shared a valuable insight into opportunities presently on offer and ones to look out for in the future in the Czech Republic, and in particular in the Moravian Silesian Region.

Both events provided a great platform for discussions with top business leaders as they address today’s most competitive challenges and networking.

As a longtime New Yorker now living happily in Hrad, my blog will celebrate what I call the 3Fs: Food, Fashion and Folklore! I seek to educate as well as entertain. My responsibility to readers is to make sure that things and places I recommend will not disappoint their cultured tastes. As a food lover, I am looking for a simple but elusive combination of good food, decent portions, reasonable prices, prompt and courteous service, a charming ambiance, and an interesting history. As a fashion blogger, I am looking for fascinating, authentic, unique pieces and whatever I can recommend that makes you look better. And in Folklore, in addition to anecdotes about interesting events and personalities, I cover tools, technology and craft traditions associated with popular culture, travel, architecture and more.

Some time ago, the Moroccan embassy asked me to find a Czech fashion designer who could mount a joint fashion show together with famous Moroccan-Jewish designer Albert Oiknine to celebrate the annual tour of the Karlovy Vary Film Festival at the Pupp Hotel in Carlsbad.

The Czech designers I contacted either declined or cancelled on me, so with just two days before the show, I still had nothing to offer. I remember how disappointed I felt that day and how I even considered skipping a social event planned for that evening. But as the hour approached, I remembered that sometimes the most important thing in life is just showing up. As Franz Liszt memorably put it, “Beware of missing chances; otherwise it may be altogether too late someday.” I put aside my wounded feelings and made my way to the event.

By a great stroke of luck, I encountered there a beautiful woman (opera singer Alena Miro), who was wearing a classic but at the same time romantic dress. I asked whom was she wearing, and that’s how I first heard Camilla Solomon’s name.

I went to Camilla’s magical show room the next day, and instantly fell in love with her fairy tale-beautiful, seductive dress designs. I asked her to put together 40 long dresses for the show taking place the next evening. She had only 20 available, but thinking quickly, she asked her loyal clients to pitch in for her success. She had to bring some of the dresses to the dry cleaner’s overnight, but she managed to pull it off. Camilla was a hit!

It often seems as if Camilla is always on the move. Camilla has collaborated with powerful personalities and Czech powerhouses like Miss Czech Republic, Karlovy Vary Film Festival, and Preciosa. She prepares a new collection twice a year, and also gladly undertakes one-off commissions from her discerning clients.

Camilla’s version of high fashion does not exclude a sense of timelessness. In one of our discussions, she told me that she does not want to create a dress that is like a single kiss that is never repeated. She does often not aim for the kind of flashiness that pleases runway paparazzi and magazine editors; her dresses are made to be worn by real women who want to make a glamorous but also a serious impression.

In any case, she told me, when she adds a splash of color to her designs, her clients often ask her to make the same thing in black! Czech ladies are not the only ones who think that black is beautiful: as a New Yorker, many of my friends and I often made the same choice. While I would probably never tell her so directly that I agree wholeheartedly with her Czech customers, I admire Camilla’s sense of vocation and I am proud of the small role I played in bringing her designs to a wider audience.

Camilla, who is also of Jewish origin, got on famously with Oiknine. She came to Prague 15 years ago from Slovakia with only one suit, but with ample talent and the passion to fulfill her dream of becoming a fashion designer. She started in her own apartment and quickly built up a roster of faithful clients. She now owns a very cute boutique on Kozi Street (her home space she shares with eight cats.) Unlike some designers who exhaust their creative imaginations and budgets in an effort to secure a lease in a suitably situated Old Town square, Camilla is totally focused on her work. She has retained her sense of humility: for her, dress designing is all about meeting her customers’ needs, not feeding her own ego.

THE POSITIVE LEADER: Fuelling success and happiness in a world of disruptive change

The importance of strong leadership has never been more apparent. As events in Europe unfold dramatically in the wake of the British public’s vote to exit the European Union, we find ourselves looking to our leaders –and potential leaders–to guide us through this period of uncertainty and change.

An inspirational leader can rouse confidence in times of ambiguity like these, and instil a sense of optimism for the future that might otherwise be missing. But with political leaders dropping like flies and other individuals clamouring to take their place, a number of key questions are brought to the fore. What makes for successful leadership under challenging circumstances? How can we identify a strong, visionary leader? And to what extent does great leadership inspire engagement and success in others over the long term?

These questions are becoming more significant than ever in a perpetually-changing world, and not just in politics. We’re all operating amidst a backdrop of supersonic developments in technology that are bringing dynamic innovations to every aspect of our lives and business. As corporations race to meet new demands and opportunities for growth, time-starved CEOS and managers face all manner of complications. Not least is dealing with an employee engagement crisis in which a staggering 87% of the worldwide population is not engaged at work [1]. Through my time spent coaching clients and revisiting my own personal leadership experiences at Microsoft, I’ve uncovered four key ways that leaders frequently go off beam, both in how they manage themselves and manage their teams:

Where leaders go wrong

They target weaknesses, not strengths. Misguided leaders waste vital time, money and energy grappling with faults and failures rather than recognising and leveraging people’s natural talents. The result? Disengaged and dissatisfied teams.
They fail to ‘have a dream’. A leader lacking a clear, inspirational purpose or vision will have a tough time rallying people in a unified direction. Accomplished employees don’t just want any old job; they want meaning and the chance to contribute to something bigger than themselves.
They manage time, not energy. Facing non-stop demands in the workplace, leaders cram their diaries to the brim believing that they’re skilfully maximising their time. Instead, they’re recklessly abusing their energy, diluting their focus and heading straight for a burnout.
They put success before happiness. When leaders set their sights only on the material trappings and tangible accomplishments of life, such as money or metrics, they ignore the deeper connections and meaningful activities that produce long-lasting success and happiness.

It was with these errors in mind that I sought to develop a new approach to leadership, one that answers the plight of frustrated leaders looking for a more positive way to navigate the cut and thrust of the business world. Grounded in positive psychology, the 4Ps of Positive Leadership model is my contribution to the leadership field, providing a workable system for any kind of leader and organisation:

The 4Ps of Positive Leadership

Positive People (The ‘Who’) – Discover and work to your strengths.
Positive Purpose (The ‘Why’) – Identify your mission and vision.
Positive Process (The ‘How’) – Manage energy, not time (become a ‘Chief Energy Officer’).
Positive Place (The ‘Where’) – Lead yourself to happiness, and success will follow.

You might notice one particular type of P missing from this list – that’s right, Performance. That’s because performance isn’t a cause of successful leadership, but rather an end result. By championing a more positive and authentic approach, you open yourself and others up to greater happiness. And once you’ve achieved that happier state? You guessed it – outstanding performance is quick to follow. Positive psychology research has proven that the ‘happiness breeds success’ edict isn’t hocus-pocus, but actual fact. It’s time we treated it as a real and significant principle of leadership best practice. A closer look at the 4Ps can show you whether you’re on the right track in your leadership.

POSITIVE PEOPLE: Building Strengths

One of the most worrisome aspects in the modern workplace is our obsession with ‘fixing weaknesses’. Not too great at giving presentations? Then you need to spend more time practising. Are your budgeting skills under par? Well go on a course and keep working at it. Leaders will spend whopping amounts of energy and untold hours trying to address the legion of discernible flaws in themselves, their teams and their organisations. The problem with this approach is that it causes us to overlook the things that actually make us great: our strengths. It’s by playing to our strengths that we produce our best work and make our weaknesses irrelevant. Not too sure what your strengths are? There are lots of ways to find out. A good starting point is to use a survey method such as StrengthsFinder 2.0, Via Survey or Realise 2.

Remember that leadership isn’t just about you; it’s also about the people you depend on to do your job effectively—your team. Make sure you have a balanced team who bring a variety of complementary strengths to the table, and that each individual is filling a role that utilises their unique talents. This not only makes your job easier, but also generates confidence in your followers and increases engagement with their tasks.

POSITIVE PURPOSE: Personal Mission & Ultimate Vision

We all have a responsibility to ourselves to find a job, career or lifestyle that we love; something that gives us a sense of purpose – a ‘why’ for doing things. This is our personal mission. We all have one. Make it your priority to find your personal mission so you can enjoy greater moments of ‘flow’ and drive positive change in the right direction. Ask yourself: What are your strengths? Your values? Your passions?

But as a leader, it’s not enough to simply be aware of your purpose. By being visionary and creating a picture of what the future could be, you have the power to inspire others just as much as you inspire yourself. Getting the people around you on board with a clear vision – inspiring them to share a bigger purpose – gives you and your team a high platform from which to achieve more than you imagined possible. Surprising as it sounds, the need to make a meaningful contribution is fast overtaking money as the most powerful driver for performance. So instead of relying on bonuses, why not try helping your team unlock more of their potential in the workplace?

POSITIVE PROCESS: Energy Management

Being ‘busy-busy’ is such a feature of modern life that no business leader can say they aren’t feeling the strain. Faced with relentless demands in the workplace, we try to take control of our time through typical time management methods – using day planners and to-do lists, setting up reminders on our smartphones – driven by the idea that the more we can squeeze into our day, the more productive (and hopefully the less stressed!) we will be. However, the key to avoiding burnout is not how we manage time; it’s how we manage energy. Unlike time, which is strictly limited to 24 hours per day for everyone, personal energy is renewable [2].

Today’s businesses need leadership that recognises the value of ‘strategic renewal’. Throughout the day, our bodies follow a cycle where they are at their peak energy levels for 90–120 minutes, after which they hit a trough for about 20–30 minutes (these are called ultradian rhythms). During our low periods, we feel tired, irritable and groggy, and we lose focus. By resting at these times, we can revitalise ourselves and refuel our energy ‘tank’ for those key moments when we need to work on our most challenging, high-grade tasks.

POSITIVE PLACE: Success vs Happiness

Leaders are lost. In spite of their achievements and material wealth, many top-level leaders are mindlessly running the rat race – dashing headlong towards the next goal, the next gain, the next bonus – without finding happiness within their day-to-day existence. They’re relying on success to make them happy, but their focus is in the wrong place. Happiness is not one final point or moment in time. I define it as the overall pleasure you experience while on the path to unlocking your potential.

So how do you get on the happiness path? By pursuing your personal mission instead of the rat race. Set goals that engage your strengths, connect with your values and do what you love to do, as well as what you have to do. Get this right and instead of simply looking forward to achieving your goals, you’ll actually enjoy the sense of direction and meaning that they bring to your everyday life.

Prime Minister Bohuslav Sobotka visited KION Stříbro and found out more about the production of fork-lifts

Together with Milan Chovanec, Minister of Interior, Václav Šlajs, County Representative of the Pilsen region, Dagmar Terelmešová, Member of the Czech Senate and Václav Votava, Member of the Czech Chamber of Deputies, Bohuslav Sobotka visited the factory of KION Stříbro. The excursion introduced the visitors to the production of fork-lifts of the newest generation. The delegation appreciated clever technologies, the Czech-German cooperation and the contributions of the investor to the Pilsen region.

Bohuslav Sobotka stated that the gaining of new investments which generate new job positions is one of the important priorities of his government.

Premiér Sobotka se v závodě KION Stříbro seznámil
s výrobou vysokozdvižných vozíků

Závod KION Stříbro navštívili předseda vlády, ministr vnitra a hejtman Plzeňského kraje
Exkurze představila účastníkům živou výrobu vysokozdvižných vozíků nejnovější generace
Delegace ocenila chytré technologie, česko-německou spolupráci i přínosy investora pro region

Předseda vlády Bohuslav Sobotka a ministr vnitra Milan Chovanec se v rámci své návštěvy Plzeňského kraje seznámili s výrobou vysokozdvižných vozíků v továrně KION Stříbro, která zahájila provoz na začátku letošního roku. Exkurze za plného chodu závodu se zúčastnili také hejtman Plzeňského kraje Václav Šlajs, senátorka Dagmar Terelmešová a poslanec Václav Votava.

„Získávání nových investic, které generují nová pracovní místa, je jednou z důležitých priorit naší vlády. Jsem proto rád, že si společnost KION vybrala pro svůj další rozvoj Českou republiku a otevřela zde svůj dosud nejmodernější závod. Plzeňský kraj našel v této firmě dobrého partnera pro rozvoj průmyslu a moderních technologií. Důležité je také to, že společnost vytvořila svým příchodem několik desítek nových pracovních míst,“ uvedl předseda vlády Bohuslav Sobotka.

„Od začátku roku jsme již vyrobili přes 2 500 vysokozdvižných vozíků pro zákazníky z celého světa. Je pozoruhodné, že ve Francii, Číně, USA, nebo dokonce v Barmě přepravují zboží či materiál pomocí vozíků, které jsme vyrobili my. Význam našeho závodu nyní navíc potvrdila i tato výjimečná návštěva,“ řekl Radek Čermák, výkonný ředitel KION Stříbro.

Premiér, ministr, hejtman a další hosté si prohlédli moderní technologie s digitálně propojenými systémy, které již odpovídají trendu tzv. chytrých továren a koncepci Průmysl 4.0. Účastníci setkání také pohovořili o úspěšném propojení německé investice a know-how se silnou strojírenskou základnou v západních Čechách. Delegace ocenila rovněž vznik 150 nových pracovních míst a další přínosy německé společnosti pro region.

KION Stříbro vyrábí vysokozdvižné vozíky typu „retrak“ značky Linde a Fenwick. Hala o rozloze 24 000 m² leží v Panattoni Parku Stříbro. Celková výše investice se blíží 1 miliardě Kč.

Německá společnost KION Group je evropskou jedničkou a světovou dvojkou v produkci průmyslových vozíků. V České republice provozuje kromě továrny KION Stříbro ještě další 2 závody: společnost Linde Pohony (LiPo) vyrábí řídicí nápravy a elektrické a hydrostatické pohonné nápravy v Českém Krumlově a společnost JULI elektrické motory nedaleko Brna. Dohromady dnes pracuje na těchto třech místech 1 200 lidí.
