Key Theme: Transformation “Evangelists” are Vital

Although Marc has a classical line role within the company, he is also a lateral thinker and thrives to transform towards a more innovative and explorative culture within and outside the company. For him, this mission as communicator & translator is particularly important. “Employees as well as leaders should be able to translate the transformation sermon. It’s not about technical or psychological skills that we’re lacking, it’s about bringing them to action. What is the missing link? Actually, it’s really intertwined with the evangelist and the topic of transformation, because everybody involved in such a transformation — just from a hierarchical organizational standpoint — needs to have the same mental model and mindset.”
