Challenge

Schaeffler was preparing to move to a new central laboratory in Herzogenaurach. Beyond the physical move, the real challenge was to drive cultural change: how to foster hybrid working, strengthen leadership and build a future-proof working environment.

Our approach

We supported the initial roll-out phase and led the change management process. This included developing hybrid working strategies, engaging leadership through workshops, and guiding teams through the cultural transformation via personalised communication and stakeholder engagement.

Generated impact

The Zentrallabor now operates with a shared understanding of flexible working and leadership proximity. The modular room concepts support diverse working styles, whilst leaders are equipped to guide their teams within a hybrid and collaborative ecosystem.
