Sustainability goals can only be achieved by taking a holistic approach, which requires expertise from different areas. This includes not only the departments within our company, but also external stakeholders such as suppliers, specialist retailers, customers and network partners. Close cooperation and dialogue between all the parties involved, on an equal footing, create the best conditions for successful sustainable action.

The role of our sustainability ambassadors

The concept of sustainability must be strategically anchored in-house before it can be put into practice at all levels. Clear communication and incorporating our approach into everyday working life lead to more sustainable action across all areas. With our sustainability ambassadors, we are able to involve experts from companies that are close to us when implementing our sustainability strategy, alongside people from our own ranks. These are ASSMANN managers and specialists as well as selected external partners. With their sustainability awareness, they each dedicate themselves to a focus area that corresponds to their expertise and area of responsibility. For example, Karla Aßmann and Andreas Gohs handle business conduct, while Andreas Fipp and Konrad Merkt are responsible for climate issues. Jörg Koppe and Dieter Brübach deal with environmental protection, while Daniel Kahnwald and Michael Kamsties focus on materials. Maren Thiemann and Susann Mädler are responsible for people-related matters. They all embody a sense of responsibility with regard to ecological, economic and social issues in their day-to-day work, and help their colleagues to identify new potential for sustainability. Our ten sustainability ambassadors show how they contribute to improving sustainability, especially at ASSMANN, and how they achieve their goals and always #go_further.
