Our theme this year, Connecting the dots, is already practiced in the company Mondi Štětí. The director of Mondi Štětí, Mr. Roman Senecký, will speak about how exactly they connect the world of top management and their employees.
One of the key things is a shared vision. There is a huge difference if a bricklayer builds a piece of the wall while fulfilling only a given task, or knows that he is building a cathedral, and feels that this contributes to the greater goal. Should people at all levels know the company’s vision and strategy? How can this help them in their daily work? Are they even interested?
