Values and Culture
Active Corporate Culture
Our healthy corporate culture is reflected in regular, constructive dialogs between supervisors and employees. This includes the annual performance and development dialog and the feedback discussion, in which employees give superiors substantial feedback.
Management Principles
“The skills and conduct of the managers are crucial to the company’s success.” That is the first sentence inscribed in the management principles, which are based on the tenets of the corporate constitution of Bertelsmann SE & Co. KGaA, and which serve to provide a detailed record of the partnership-based understanding of management established in the Bertelsmann Essentials. These guidelines apply to all Bertelsmann managers around the world. Bertelsmann was one of the first companies in Germany to officially recognize the importance of a collaborative approach to management and staff relations.
Corporate Responsibility
For us, entrepreneurial success is measured not only by economic key figures but also by how sustainable and responsible we act. Because we see ourselves as part of and partner to the society in which we live. That is why we assume responsibility. With many initiatives and projects, Bertelsmann companies like Arvato Systems are helping to meet society's challenges of the future. Detailed information about Arvato Systems' activities in this area can be found here on the Web.
For example, on the topics
- Environment - especially for a modern IT company, it is important to contribute to sustainable energy and resource management of the future - or
- Diversity, because diversity and heterogeneity are part of our everyday life, a natural element of our work - and a sustainable basis for our success.
