INTERVIEW<br />

" In line with <strong>the</strong><br />

"We" idea "<br />

<strong>LB</strong> Plus: At <strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> March, <strong>the</strong> "We" event<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>LB</strong> <strong>GmbH</strong> took place. Who is "We"?<br />

Karoline Wolf: "We" includes all employees <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> <strong>LB</strong> group which is composed <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> divisions<br />

Logistics, IT, Production and Media as<br />

well as affiliated companies. We particularly<br />

invited sales-oriented employees to <strong>the</strong> event<br />

at that weekend. This includes sales representatives,<br />

technical support staff and apprentices.<br />

A total <strong>of</strong> 78 group employees attended<br />

<strong>the</strong> event.<br />

<strong>LB</strong> Plus: A large group with an extensive<br />

range. How were <strong>the</strong> participants acquainted<br />

with this?<br />

Karoline Wolf: <strong>The</strong> type and scope <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> presentations<br />

were left to <strong>the</strong> individual speakers<br />

from <strong>the</strong> different companies. This is how<br />

for example a role play was incorporated to<br />

explain more difficult concepts such as <strong>the</strong><br />

"logistics mall" in a simple, effective manner.<br />

Of course, some companies opted for a nor-<br />

mal PowerPoint presentation which was most<br />

<strong>of</strong>ten presented by <strong>the</strong> team. Since <strong>the</strong> apprentices<br />

were also given <strong>the</strong> chance to explain<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir company's products and services, <strong>the</strong> fellow<br />

apprentices were integrated perfectly and<br />

"picked up".<br />

<strong>The</strong> Logistics division took us on an interesting<br />

journey through Germany and introduced<br />

us <strong>the</strong> services provided at each location (and<br />

which by far extend <strong>the</strong> simple storage <strong>of</strong> products).<br />

Finally, <strong>the</strong> Media division demonstrated<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir products from <strong>the</strong> Production, Print<br />

and Marketing areas using film clips. A broad<br />

product portfolio which was brought closer in<br />

an emotive way in animated (or "animating")<br />

images.<br />

<strong>LB</strong> Plus: Is everybody a salesperson after <strong>the</strong><br />

event? What were <strong>the</strong> goals?<br />

Karoline Wolf: In line with <strong>the</strong> "We" idea,<br />

we wanted to focus on <strong>the</strong> knowledge transfer<br />

and <strong>the</strong> communication between <strong>the</strong><br />
