People are at the center of everything we do. This is why we seek to create a corporate culture in which all employees feel valued and which cultivates innovativeness based on similarities as well as differences.
We foster global perspectives, networking, and the sharing of experiences. At BSH, we promote talents and support continuous learning. Our employees take the ownership of their career according to their abilities and interests.
Different Together.
As a global company, we have built our success on the fact, that our differences always make us stronger. That is why we value the uniqueness of each employee and see diversity as a key factor for long-term business success. Only by including everyone and ensuring equal opportunities we can unleash our full potential.
Since diversity, equity and inclusion are essential for us as a company, we do not just view them as empty words to be put on a banner. Making use of the decisive advantages and different perspectives it is essential for our success and a key driver for innovation and transformation and therefore something we actively apply to our daily business.
We do so with a huge variety of trainings, guidelines, activities and networks within and beyond the borders of BSH. Here are only some examples:
A lot of this hard work is already paying off. For example, in the last seven years, we have increased the number of women in managing positions from 22.5% to 27%.
However, we also still have a long way to go and we are more than willing to go the extra mile for an important topic such as this. Why not click below to find out all about our measures taken to reinforce diversity, equity and inclusion here at BSH?
The way we lead with conviction, work with dedication, and win as a team, is the basis for our success and for fulfilling our shared purpose of improving quality of life at home. BSH acts united in the strong belief that through our company culture, we can consciously create an environment in which people are able to unfold their full potential.
In order to realize this, BSH has developed a common understanding of fruitful collaboration, excellent leadership and an effective organization. We are convinced that we can only succeed when we enjoy what we are doing, so passion and fun play a crucial role in our approach.
Innovation does not just happen, it needs to be nurtured and fostered within the working environment. At BSH, we are committed to an interdisciplinary approach in international teams and use state-of-the-art working methods. We believe that creating an inspiring and trusting environment where people can grow and ideas can thrive is key to our business success. This encourages our employees to transform ideas into innovative and user-centric appliances, services, and experiences.
It does not matter if you are just starting your career or if you are working on an executive level: we can always improve ourselves and learn from others. Giving and receiving feedback is an essential element of this. Here at BSH, we foster a feedback culture on every level of the company with a variety of tools and trainings. For example, with the training “Feedback is a gift” we raise awareness about the importance of feedback, practice how to give and seek good feedback and learn how to incorporate feedback in our daily live.
Committed and satisfied employees are at the heart of a successful company. This is why we maintain a constant dialog with all our employees. For example, we conduct on a regular basis employee survey as a central way to listen to our employees, which is the starting point for a good communication. Additional feedback tools, such as our Feedback Explorer or a Feedback Express Workshop also promote mutual open dialog.
While individual ideas and skills are important for success, we know that no single person can do everything on their own. We will always be stronger as a team that puts the success of the project before their own benefit. Here at BSH, we want to lead with trust, respect and empathy to provide a work environment that allows successful team collaboration on every level.
Whether it is development, production, purchasing, sales or inhouse consulting and strategy – the one thing that unites all BSH employees is the intrinsic desire to be the best at what we do. That is why we are always looking for highly qualified people who want to contribute their passion to our business. And of course, we support our employees on their growth journey with a variety of programs and tools.
Even the best corporate philosophy will only work, if it is being lived each day by every single employee. Here at BSH, we take this to heart and communicate our guiding principles in workshops and team meetings to provide the best work environment possible. With measurable success, as can be seen in the result of our latest employee survey.
