The Challenge
Barnes faces the challenge of changing and homogenizing different companies and leadership styles in evolved structures. And all this with limited resources in the HR department. How can new emotional skills be brought to the breadth of the workforce in this complex structure?

Complex Structures
Barnes unites different companies and leadership cultures. Homogenizing these in the sense of a human-centric management culture is an enormous challenge. Moreover, it is difficult to reach the broad employee base across these structures.

Multiple Challenges
The large number of affiliated companies and management cultures also means a wide range of challenges in personnel development. Meeting these with the necessary focus is not always easy. How can the associated complexity in management development nevertheless be mastered?

Openness requires trust
How can this security be built up?
The DeepSkill Solution
We developed and executed a customized next-generation leadership program for Barnes to implement a human-centric corporate culture based on the bottom-up approach.

„Managementberatung auf unserem Niveau ist eine sehr herausfordernde Aufgabe: Unsere Berater:innen müssen inhaltlich und prozessual anspruchsvolle und immer wieder neue Aufgaben unter Zeitdruck lösen, Interessen unterschiedlichster Stakeholder empathisch berücksichtigen und gleichzeitig sich selbst und ihr Team effektiv und effizient führen. DeepSkill hat uns mit ihrem Leadership Programm dabei unterstützt, Führungsfähigkeiten, Stressresistenz und Selbstreflektion unseres Führungsteams gezielt zu stärken und besser und zufriedener mit der Komplexität unserer Aufgaben umgehen.“
