FOCUS Online : Mr. Grupp, what do you think of the New Work concepts, to make our world more innovative, and more agile – free division of time, for example?
Wolfgang Grupp : The Trigema. I need my employees to be constant; the Duz-culture, we do not know. I meet my employees with respect, and also the personal approach for me. Only then can I expect in return decency and power.
And free time management would mean that I suggest to my staff that the private life comes first and work next to thing, and thus the power that you bring to me is so important. Only performance is just as Crucial. I’m not saying that my Hobbies are in the first place.
The more important my employees are to me, the more I expect of them.
“As a Chef, I have to be available around the clock”
FOCUS Online : Reduced guide is probably not for you – a boss, which is only two hours during the day?
group: I’m seven days a week, and thus present. I would criticize my staff, if you would not contact me because of a problem – no matter what time of day or night. No one was calling me with a business concern that is bothering me. I have to be available around the clock. A constant Feedback is very important so that we can move forward. My employees make voluntary Overtime because they enjoy their work, because they are needed and to be aware of are.
As a boss, I must also know everything about my business: Would you go with me through my company and a question I could not answer you, then I would have to give you the company. I need to be informed about everything, only then I can react, act and make decisions. Decisions, by the way, I stand with my private property just. This should also consider the one or the other Manager I meet at no decision from delusions of grandeur, because I have to adhere to in the end for everything personally.
