Companies, where first modern work initiatives are embraced and tried out.
01

Klinikum Aschaffenburg

With the initiative “My Hospital Ward” the Clinic Aschaffenburg is for sure redefining and changing healthcare: With self-managing teams they are creating and prioritising patient-centred care and staff-wellbeing. They know how important it is to look after their employees, who in turn look after the patients. This is a cycle that is given far too little consideration in this sector. That is why the initiative shows a groundbreaking shift in healthcare and is a true international inspiration.
