The Advisory Board of days with us!

Welcome Sarah Genner & Michael Trautmann. Full of anticipation, drive and a little pride, we would like to share some great news and an important milestone in our still young company history with you today: the founding of our Advisory Board. For this body we were able to recruit not only two highly experienced, top-tier experts, but also two people with whom we share values and the commitment to make the world of work a little more human every day. The world of work is facing the greatest change in its still young history, and companies are finding it increasingly difficult to keep up. Together with Sarah and Michael, we want to advance these topics holistically, identify new opportunities and further develop our services so that we can continue to create the greatest possible added value in the future.

Why an advisory board

An advisory board is certainly unusual for a young company like ours. But even during our founding we were convinced that, in the long run, we could only be successful if we constantly adapt and question the status quo. Why?

The topics and developments in our world of work are so fast-paced and multifaceted that it is becoming increasingly difficult for companies to keep up. Those who do not recognize trends and opportunities will lose relevance in the future.

We too are aware of that.

Therefore, as a young, dynamic company, we also know that success does not depend solely on our ideas, but that experience and a certain level of seniority are crucial for long-term success. A "gap" we want to close with the Advisory Board.

In addition, guests could sign up for eight different workshop formats. The range of topics spanned employee retention and work–life balance to artificial intelligence and leadership culture — essentially all the issues companies need to address today and tomorrow. People discussed, pondered, tinkered, and laughed a lot.

A big thank you to everyone who attended and made this event possible. We couldn't have asked for a better day.

Hopefully we'll see each other at the Next Work Forum 2025.

Who are the two?

Sarah Genner

Dr. Sarah Genner is a digital expert, board member and lecturer, among others at HWZ, where she also leads the CAS New Work program she developed.

Previously she researched and taught on media and digitalization and was also a visiting researcher at the Berkman Klein Center for Internet and Society at Harvard University.

Sarah has been studying the effects of digital media and technologies on people, society, and the world of work for many years and sees herself as a bridge-builder between academia, education, and practice.

It's no wonder she is now one of the most sought-after experts and keynote speakers in Switzerland and beyond when it comes to the future of work.

We are all the more pleased that we were able to recruit Sarah, with her incredible knowledge and direct access to the scientific community, to the Advisory Board.

Michael Trautmann

Dr. Michael Trautmann is an entrepreneur, supervisory board member, podcaster and author.

Having started as the youngest top executive at Audi, he later founded the advertising agency kempertrautmann (now Th!ink) with a colleague. He is also a co-founder of Upsolut Sports GmbH, which runs the Hyrox fitness competition.

We know Michael above all as one of the best-known New Work experts in the German-speaking world and as co-host of the podcast "On The Way to New Work", from which a book has since been published. It's a topic that reached him many years ago by a roundabout route and never let him go. A few years ago he founded NWMS GmbH together with Swantje Allmers to share his knowledge in this field.

We are pleased that, with Michael, we were able to bring to the Advisory Board not only a wealth of know‑how in the field of New Work but also expertise in the leadership and development of companies.

We are looking forward to everything that’s still to come and are incredibly proud to have the two of them with us!
