GOING BEYOND OUR COMFORT ZONE Die Digitale Transformation ist auch 2015 ein bestimmendes Thema der Wirtschaft über alle Branchen hinweg, durch alle Märkte, auf zahlreichen Ebenen und in nahezu allen Bereichen. Wir als Weber Shandwick sehen uns in zweifacher Form dem gegenüber: Zum einen müssen wir, wie jedes andere Unternehmen auch, unseren eigenen Weg durch diesen Wandel finden, neue Ziele definieren, neue Möglichkeiten entdecken, Herausforderungen meistern und Chancen wahrnehmen. Darüber hinaus erwarten unsere Kunden, dass wir sie genau bei diesen Prozessen begleiten, ihnen Vorbild sind, Wegweiser und Berater. Für uns in Deutschland stand das Jahr 2015 daher unter dem Motto „Getting out of your comfort zone“.

Dieses Motto begleitete uns nicht nur in unserer kommunikativen Arbeit mit und für unsere Kunden. Es ist unser Leitsatz, der sich tief in unserer Einstellung verankern und in all unserem Handeln wiederfinden sollte. In der zweiten Ausgabe unseres jährlichen Corporate Social Responsibility Reports möchte ich Ihnen und Euch zeigen, wie wir uns bei Weber Shandwick in diesem Jahr weiterentwickelt haben. Ich bin sehr stolz auf die vielen Initiativen, die aus der Mitte unserer Teams heraus geboren und mit viel Einsatz und Engagement jedes Einzelnen umgesetzt wurden.

Wer sich zum Thema CSR und Nachhaltigkeit austauschen möchte, kann mich gern kontaktieren. Ich freue mich sehr über Feedback und Anregungen.

Viele Grüße

Christiane Schulz CEO Weber Shandwick

2014 veröffentlichte Weber Shandwick als erste PR-Agentur in Deutschland einen eigenen CSR-Report und legte damit offen, welche Anstrengungen wir unternehmen, um unseren Verpflichtungen gegenüber Mitarbeitern, Kunden, der Gesellschaft und nicht zuletzt der Umwelt gerecht zu werden.

In diesem Jahr sind wir einen Schritt weiter gegangen und haben unsere Strategien und Maßnahmen in Bezug auf Nachhaltigkeit und Corporate Social Responsibility professionell evaluieren lassen. Das unabhängige Rating-System EcoVadis untersuchte unsere Standards unter anderem in den Bereichen Umweltschutz, Arbeitsbedingungen und Geschäftsmethoden. Mit einer

Auszüge aus dem EcoVadis Ergebnisreport 4

Page 6: Weber Shandwick CSR Report 2015

Durch die digitale Revolution wird unser Leben zunehmend schneller und unterliegt immer kürzeren Zyklen. Eines der bedeutendsten Projekte, das Weber Shandwick 2015 intern angegangen ist, war die Implementierung eines agilen Projektmanagements, das genau diesen Entwicklungen Rechnung trägt.

Unterstützt und geleitet durch externe Coaches lernte unser Management Team, die Agenturarbeit durch „Agile Augen“ zu sehen und zu bewerten. Process Control, Lean Thinking, Push vs. Pull Culture und Iterative & Incremental waren die Themenfelder, mit denen wir uns in einem mehrtägigen Workshop vertraut machten.

In Pilotgruppen und -projekten erprobten wir in einem nächsten Schritt gemeinsam mit Mitarbeitern aller Ebenen neue Prozesse und Tools dieser agilen Arbeitsweise. Für eine effektive Planung und Steuerung

EMPOWERING OUR PEOPLE

führten zahlreiche Teams an allen Agenturstandorten Kanban-Boards ein, die jederzeit den Status Quo der Projekte wiedergeben und bei Bedarf den sich ändernden Gegebenheiten bei Mitarbeitern, Kunden oder Dienstleistern angepasst werden können. Skill Maps, auf denen die Talente unserer Mitarbeiter aufgeführt sind, helfen sowohl langfristig, als auch ad hoc bei der practice- und standortübergreifenden Ressourcenplanung.

‚Empowering the People‘ bedeutet bei uns nicht nur, jedem Mitarbeiter die Möglichkeit zu geben, sich individuell weiterzuentwickeln und seinen Weg selbstbestimmt zu gehen. Es heißt auch, intern eine Informationspolitik zu verfolgen, die von Offenheit, Transparenz und Vertrauen geprägt ist.

Page 7: Weber Shandwick CSR Report 2015

„Durch unsere kurzen wöchentlichen Stand-Up Meetings am Kanban-Board hat jedes Team-Mitglied einen klaren Überblick über den Fortschritt unserer Kundenprojekte und kennt „das große Ganze“ sowie die aktuellen Prioritäten. Das ist nicht nur gut für den Team-Spirit sondern hilft uns auch sehr dabei, flexibel auf kurzfristige Kundenanfragen reagieren zu können.“

Bärbel Hestert-Vecoli,Director Corporate Affairs

„Für einen unserer größten Kunden haben wir ein tägliches Kanban Meeting eingeführt. Dadurch sind alle Aufgaben und Einzelprojekte definiert, strukturiert und bestimmten Teammitgliedern zugeordnet. Das Kanban-Board schafft auch einen Überblick über die Auslastungen im Team. Mögliche Engpässe lassen sich schnell identifizieren, so dass aktiv gegengesteuert werden kann. So stellen wir sicher, dass alle Tasks fristgerecht bearbeitet und mögliche Fehlerquellen schnell erkannt werden. Insgesamt ein gutes und hilfreiches Tool, mit dem sich das Team erfolgreich selbstmanagen kann.“

Nalan Demiroez,Associate Director Consumer Marketing 6

Wir fragen unsere Mitarbeiter in Deutschland regelmäßig, wie sie ihre Arbeit bei Weber Shandwick einschätzen und wo sie Verbesserungspotential sehen. Besonders stolz macht uns der „Happy Index“: Danach gefragt, wie viel Spaß es macht hier zu arbeiten, vergaben unsere Mitarbeiter in diesem Jahr durchschnittlich 5,42 von 7 Punkten. Zum Vergleich: 2013 erhielten wir 4,6 Punkte, 2014 waren es 5,12.

„Um ein Leben voller Kreativität zu leben, müssen wir unsere Angst vor dem Versagen ablegen.“ (Joseph Chilton Pearce) In Formaten wie dem Creative Lunch oder der 24h Cannes Challenge schaffen wir Raum für neue, ungewöhnliche Ideen, Fragen und Sichtweisen.

Neben Trainings und Workshops vor Ort bieten wir unseren Mitarbeitern eine umfangreiche Datenbank an E-Learning-Angeboten. Über webershandwick.edu kann sich jeder seine individuelle Playlist erstellen und je nach Zeit und Bedarf in relevanten Themen weiterbilden. Einige Angebote zu global relevanten Themen sind dabei obligatorisch für alle Mitarbeiter.

Regelmäßige Quartalsupdates, interne Newsletter, eine Open Door Policy bei Führungskräften aller Levels und nicht zuletzt Vertrauensarbeitszeit schaffen ein respektvolles Arbeitsumfeld auf Augenhöhe. Homeoffice, Teilzeit, mehr Urlaubstage als gesetzlich festgelegt und eine Infobroschüre für werdende Eltern zeigen, dass Weber Shandwick auch für Familien attraktiver Arbeitgeber und Partner ist.

IM INTERVIEW:

Frigga, bevor du zu uns gekommen bist, hast du schon in einigen anderen Agenturen gearbeitet. Mit diesen Erfahrungen im Hinterkopf: Was zeichnet Weber Shandwick als guten Arbeitgeber aus?

Wenn ich dabei an der Spitze anfangen sollte, würde ich sagen, Christiane ist ein sehr präsenter, immer greifbarer CEO. Durch ihre offene Kommunikation und transparente Führung wissen alle, woran sie sind und wohin die Reise geht. Das schafft Orientierung und ein positives Arbeitsklima. Hinzu kommen sehr gute Arbeitsbedingungen. Und neben all der Arbeit kommt bei uns der Spaß nicht zu kurz, sei es beim Sommerfest, einem Glas Sekt auf den gewonnenen Pitch oder dem gemeinsam zelebrierten „Dönerstag“.

Was steht für 2016 auf der HR Agenda?

Kurz-, mittel- und langfristige Entwicklungspläne für jeden einzelnen Mitarbeiter, sowohl in horizontaler, als auch vertikaler Richtung. Unser Bedarf an Fachkräften geht immer mehr von klassischen PR Generalisten hin zu gut ausgebildeten Spezialisten. Kommunikative Trends und technische Neuerungen müssen sich in unserer Mitarbeiterschaft wiederfinden. Bisher orientieren wir uns in der Personalentwicklung an jährlichen Zielvereinbarungsgesprächen und PMPs. Dieser Zyklus ist zu lang und unflexibel.

Stellt der PR-Nachwuchs eine besondere Herausforderung dar?

Die nachwachsende Generation an Fachkräften, sprich Gen Y und inzwischen auch Gen Z, ist historisch geprägt durch eine recht sichere wirtschaftliche Lage, in der Finanzkrisen und damit einhergehende Einbußen und Mangelerscheinungen weitestgehend überwunden waren. Entsprechend fordernd tritt diese Generation heute auf, sei es beim Gehalt, sozialen Leistungen oder Entwicklungsmöglichkeiten. Wer diese Fachkräfte gewinnen und halten will, muss sich attraktiv positionieren. Ich glaube, da sind wir auf einem guten Weg.

Wie begegnet Weber Shandwick der Digitalen Transformation?

Wir schauen in der Aus- und Weiterbildung, dass wir inhaltlich am Ball bleiben und einen internen Wissenstransfer sicherstellen. Interaktive E-Learning-Angebote werden hierbei sehr gut angenommen, da sie praxisnah vermitteln und eigenverantwortlich genutzt werden können. Darüber hinaus macht die Digitalisierung natürlich auch vor unseren HR Prozessen und Arbeitsabläufen nicht halt. Für unser Recruiting bedeutet das u.a. multimediale Bewerbungen, Online Assessments und digitales Bewerbermanagement.

Der Code of Conduct unserer Holding Interpublic Group deckt alle Bereiche des Arbeitslebens ab und gibt wichtige Verhaltensrichtlinien vor. Alle IPG Mitarbeiter sind verpflichtet, den Code of Conduct mit ihrer Unterschrift anzuerkennen und ihn zu befolgen.

Das Fair Company Siegel zeichnet uns als Agentur mit einer verantwortungsvollen und transparenten Unternehmenskultur aus. Besonders Praktikanten und Berufseinsteigern gibt dieses Siegel eine Orientierung auf der Suche nach wertvollen Praxiserfahrungen mit definierten Zielen, klarem Mehrwert und einer fairen Entlohnung.

Wir verfolgen eine offene Kommunikation und Feedbackkultur. Unsere jährliche Kundenumfrage liefert uns wichtige Anhaltspunkte zur Verbesserung unserer Arbeit. Diese Umfrage wird sowohl auf nationalem, als auch internationalem Level durchgeführt.

Wir sind Mitglied der GPRA, dem Berufsverband führender PR-Agenturen in Deutschland. Hier engagiert sich Weber Shandwick u.a. aktiv bei der Erarbeitung brancheneinheitlicher Standards zur Ausbildung von Praktikanten und Trainees. Darüber hinaus ist Christiane Schulz Mitinitiator des Arbeitskreises „Kein Erfolg ohne Ziele“, der dabei ist, das Selbstverständnis unserer Branche zu dem Thema zu definieren.

ONE WORLD

Die digitale Transformation vereinfacht durch technische Neuerungen viele Bereiche unseres Lebens, auch im Alltag. Sie verkürzt nicht nur kommunikative Wege und bringt Menschen und Orte näher zusammen, sie hilft auch, Rohstoffe zu sparen. Davon profitieren wir alle, in ökologischer wie ökonomischer Hinsicht.So betreiben wir bei Weber Shandwick in München und Berlin beispielsweise unsere Telefonie ausschließlich über Voice Over IP. Die mit dem PC vernetzte Anlage erleichtert das Kontaktmanagement und ermöglicht Videokonferenzen, Desktop Sharing und Onlinepräsentationen mit mehreren Teilnehmern. Wo es sich anbietet, ersetzen wir Meetings mit Webkonferenzen und sparen so Zeit und Reisekosten.

Mit wiederholten Kleiderspendenaktionen engagieren sich unsere Mitarbeiter und sammelten mehrere Umzugskartons, vollgepackt mit Kleidern der letzten Saison. Über gemeinnützige Organisationen wie PackMee und die Deutsche Kleiderstiftung wurden die Sachen einem Weiterverkauf für einen guten Zweck oder der direkten Abgabe an Bedürftige zugeführt. Neben der sozialen Hilfe schonen die Spenden auch die Umwelt, da Müll vermieden wird und weniger Textilien produziert werden müssen.

Gleiches gilt für Lebensmittel. Zur Weihnachtszeit unterstützten wir die Aktion „Weihnachten für alle“ der Tafel e.V. mit Lebensmittelspenden unserer Teams. Für jede von unseren Mitarbeitern gespendete Mahlzeit legte Weber Shandwick eine Geldspende oben drauf. Auch auf diese Weise werden wertvolle Ressourcen geschont und verantwortungsbewusst mit ihnen umgegangen.

GIVING BACK TO OUR COMMUNITY

2015 war ein aufregendes Jahr voller gesellschaftlicher Herausforderungen und sportlicher Erfolge. Gemeinsam mit Kunden oder vereint als Office-Team waren unsere Mitarbeiter bei einer Vielzahl gemeinnütziger Veranstaltungen dabei, sowohl als Unterstützer hinter den Kulissen, als auch als Teilnehmer mitten im Geschehen.

Besonders stolz sind wir in diesem Jahr auf unsere interne Typisierungsaktion zugunsten der Deutschen Knochenmarkspenderdatei DKMS. An einem Tag im August wurden unsere vier Standorte für ein paar Stunden zur DKMS Spenderzentrale. Ausgestattet mit ausführlichen Informationen und allen nötigen Materialien konnte sich jeder unserer Mitarbeiter zur

Aufnahme in die internationale Knochenmarkspenderdatei typisieren lassen. Sie bildet jedes Jahr die Rettung für tausende Krebspatienten, denen nur durch eine Stammzellenspende geholfen werden kann.

Die Resonanz war fantastisch: Wir erhielten ausnahmslos positive Reaktion, zahlreiche Kollegen berichteten, sie seien bereits registriert. Andere hatten schon viel von der DKMS gehört, sich bisher aber nicht getraut und waren daher umso begeisterter von der Initiative am Arbeitsplatz. Am Ende des Tages haben wir 57 potentielle Stammzellenspender in den eigenen Reihen gewinnen können. Die Kosten der Typisierung aller Mitarbeiter trug Weber Shandwick mit einer Spende an die DKMS.

Kollegen unseres Münchener Teams engagierten sich gemeinsam mit rund 1000 weiteren Läufern beim „Rückenwindlauf“ in Garching. Die dabei gesammelten Spendengelder unterstützen die „Elterninitiative Krebskranke Kinder München“ bei ihrer Arbeit.

Ähnlich sportlich zeigten sich unsere Kollegen in Frankfurt: Beim Benefizlauf „Charity Walk & Run“ zugunsten der Hilfe für krebskranke Kinder e.V. und Humanity First e.V. sponserten wir die Startgelder und statteten unsere Athleten mit Laufshirts aus.

Sportlichen Einsatz zeigten auch unsere Kollegen beim Carglass Cologne Triathlon Weekend. In zwei Teams meisterten sie 0,7 km im Wasser, 26 km auf dem Fahrrad und 7 km im Dauerlauf. Die Startgelder wurden der Carglass Stiftung „giving back“ gespendet.

Weber Shandwick war zu Gast bei der Talent Factory, einer Initiative der Millionways Stiftung, wo Fachleute unterschiedlichster Richtungen über ihre Talente und Berufe berichten. Die Talent Factory möchte erreichen, dass sich Jugendliche mit ihren eigenen Talenten und denen anderer Menschen auseinandersetzen.
