Based on the following goals and requirements, CONTUR developed the program:

• Recognize the importance and effectiveness of a positive corporate culture
• Recognize the interaction between culture, leadership and readiness for change
• To teach managers the basic behavior of people in change

• To take into account the special conditions in production-related areas in the development program at all times and to put them into practice
• To provide participating managers with concrete tools for change support
• Transferring the management task of change support to the daily business of the managers

In order to accompany the entire target group in time before and during the commissioning of the new plant and the changing production processes, the collaboration started regardless of the pandemic situation.

Throughout 2021, the groups, in virtual or face-to-face formats, were accompanied through the measures. The pandemic situation, the resulting need to switch between virtual and face-to-face formats, and the customer’s existing shift systems, have been a major challenge to the success of the qualification program.

Through a regular and constructive exchange between plant and production management, personnel development and CONTUR, the program was implemented in time before and during the commissioning of the new plant, despite all obstacles and imponderables.
