Recent data from the German Federal Employment Agency Bundesagentur für Arbeit (BA) reveals a significant shift in the #caresector: The grow of temporary workers in Germany has seemingly come to an end!💡   According to a recent evaluation by the BA, the number of #temporaryworkers employed in care has decreased by 4% over the past year, with approx. 32,400 temporary workers remaining by the end of 2023. This reduces their share to just 1.8% of the nearly 1.8 million total employees in the sector.   This decline marks a pivotal change: While temporary staffing has helped for bridging short-term staffing gaps, the rising costs associated with it are a real concern for many care providers. At Korian Deutschland, we therefore believe that temporary staffing should not be a systemic tool for workforce planning.   The BA’s insights further underscore the need for innovative approaches that foster a positive working environment, prioritize the quality of care and ensure the well-being of both patients and staff – including a fair compensation, excellent working conditions and a supportive #leadership.   What is your take on the recent data?   For more information, check out the article by Handelsblatt editor Frank Specht 👉 https://lnkd.in/dk-RDcBH   Clariane #KorianDeutschland #AtYourSide #HR #WorkforceManagement Remi Boyer, Christian Gharieb, Theo Birkemeyer, Janine Hoppe, Sabine Schröder, Markus Scheitzach, Sonja Rüger (Dittrich), Dr. Hasina Farouq

In the last months I repeatedly had discussion with inhouse recruiting teams as well as external recruiting providers about how best to organise their recruiting activities. As activities grow and scale the setup of a recruiting team is essential. As recruiting is clearly not not only about occupying positions; it’s also about how to best structure the set up for effectiveness, efficiency, specialization, and client connections.    Let’s dive into two models.    1. Project-Based Recruiting Team  In this model, a recruiter takes charge of the entire process from the outset to the conclusion.    What’s the impact?  Complete Understanding:  Total oversight of the process leads to enhanced recruitment selections.    Client ties: A robust rapport generates trust and greater alignment.  Obstacles? Recruiters may feel stretched thin coping with everything.    2. Value Chain-Based Recruiting Team  Here, the procedure is partitioned: sourcing, interviewing, contract management—each assigned to a specific person.    Specialization: everyone focuses on value steps where they excel.  Speed: Simultaneous activities = reduced time-to-hire.    Obstacles? There may be communication gaps that occur between the stages.    So, which course to follow?🤔  For projects that are smaller and highly specialized with an emphasis on connections, Project-Based is impeccable.  When it comes to scaling, high-volume efficiency, and speedier results, Value Chain-Based is the way to go.  You might also choose to go hybrid. Balancing deep client connections with specialized teams gives you the best of both worlds.   Whether it’s personalization or scalability, choose the structure that aligns with your organization’s needs.    What’s your method? 👀  Feel free to express your thoughts in the comments section below!  Follow me for more insights on optimizing your recruiting! Curious to dive deeper into which recruiting structure suits your team best? 🤔 Check out the full breakdown on my blog for more insights https://lnkd.in/dSBBpMfc

Insta payments and economy of scale in practice. Additional cost of implementation plus having a second payment channel. Business will benefit from the instant cash flow while customer will pay the fees. At UBS payment will cost you a whooping CHF 5 💸 . At Raiffeisen Switzerland less than half of that, with the first 12 payments for free after that CHF 2 per payment.

In the area of ​​#GRC and especially #NIS2 or #DORA, I currently see hundreds of advertisements on LinkedIn Jobs every day. - Some of them have been open for months. They are always looking for full-time specialists with several decades of experience who are used to acting at the CxO level or, ideally, have already held the role of CTO, CCO, or CRO themselves. Well, the number of these people is limited - and the question is how to generate decades of experience within a few weeks, except from "fake it until you make it". But seriously: small and medium-sized institutes only need such experts for a few hours or days per month or year, which none of these experts have any illusions about. So why always look for a full-time five-star pastry chef when you only need a piece of cake❓ No wonder the trend towards fractional/shared so-called vCxOs is prevalent among SME companies in other industries and geographical areas outside the EU. There are some clear benefits of engaging vCxOs: - Speed to reliable knowledge Organizations can quickly access the expertise needed to streamline operations or manage pressing challenges - Cost savings Engaging vCxOs is in several ways more cost-effective than hiring full-time executives as you only pay for services and expertise you need when you need it and reduce trial and error - Flexibility vCxOs provide organizations with flexibility scaling teams up or down as needed and adapting faster to threats, changing business and regulatory requirements - Direct Access to your personal expert familiar with the company and teams vCxOs typically possess the skills to onboard themselves quickly as self-starters and coach organizations into specialized skill sets as reliable long-time companion - Proven and sound perspectives As vCxOs work with multiple clients, they bring diverse experiences on board thus driving innovation and creative problem-solving Maybe it is worth evaluating whether this option is better than ending up with no piece of any cake at all.😉 Have a nice weekend!

In today’s fast-paced world, authenticity is key—especially when it comes to presenting yourself professionally. During a recent workshop at Power Hub Zug, led by Daria Goryacheva, Global Product Manager for Digital Apps and Co-lead of Women's Network at Siemens Switzerland, we tackled the question: How can you showcase who you are and what you bring to the table right from the first conversation? The answer lies in a simple, yet powerful structure: ✅ My strengths—what makes me unique ✅ My motivation—what drives me forward ✅ My skills—tailored to the role and context Huge thanks to Daria for her guidance and knowledge 👩‍🚀 🚀 and to Olena - event facilitator, for ensuring the event ran smoothly. Look at those smiles—such positive energy motivates anyone to deliver an excellent pitch! 🎯 Now, the next step is putting these pitches to the test at an upcoming networking event, where the mentees of Power Hub Zug have the chance to use them in real-world scenarios. #AuthenticPitch #Interview #Networking

The first step of being innovative is to learn! This is very much at the core of our 15%-culture as #3mer #scientist as I pointed out in one of my articles here on LinkedIn before: https://lnkd.in/enP6RXx8 I personally found that listening to science podcasts on my way to work or on longer distance drives in the train or car is one way to learn about new topics and broaden my view beyond my expertise as materials scientist and innovator. Becoming the Hydrogen Technology and Business Architect at 3M did not happen in a day and my learning went of course way beyond listening to podcasts, but it was one element to broaden my scope into adjacent areas with a low entry barrier. COP29 just finished and it is obvious climate change can only be prevented if we all educate ourselves more about the basic science that can explain what happens. This way actions we have to take personally or as humankind are not put upon us, but are hopefully based on a common understanding. I am following Johannes Kückens, Jens Schröder and Michael Bücker already for some time with their physics podcast. Since one of the first episodes I can't boil my water for a nice cup of tea without thinking about the physics behind the rattling of my water kettle. I also very much enjoyed the first episodes of this new podcast explaining the science of climate change. What are science podcasts you enjoy listening to and learning from? I might share a few more I find interesting over the next couple of weeks. So far most of them have been in German, so I would also like learn from you what science podcasts are out there in other countries? This might be one way we can learn to better understand the science around us!

This is awesome news and significant, because it is clearly decoupled from any economic downturn. It also illustrates clearly what I’ve been posting for a while. The number 1 violator in menmade CO2 emissions is electric power generation. Push local and distributed PV-solar with battery backup. Discard the utility monopolies. Number 2 in menmade CO2 emissions is transportation. Go Battery electric with road based transportation.
