The result: a cultural mission statement that was developed by and for around 350 Seminaris employees (and is constantly being refined). It points the way to the future and serves as orientation in day-to-day business. And it provided the impetus for a complete realignment of our own offering.
The central elements of the common vision are the mission “We make people grow” and the four values of appreciation, team strength, self-determination and the joy of communication.
The organizational form of Seminaris was developed into a matrix in line with the self-determined culture. And the mission statement is now consistently implemented in all areas of the newly created matrix organization – for example, through agile leadership, the implementation of Scrum, a distinctive error and feedback culture, and a certified environmental management system.
Actively demanding and encouraging grassroots initiatives, while at the same time giving all units autonomy and self-organization, repeatedly leads to surprising and relevant solutions in hotel operations. Both internal and external communications are designed to be culture-based.
Today, Seminaris no longer offers its customers classic conferences and meeting rooms – but the opportunity to grow in change. With a network of new-work experts and trainers, Masterclasses and workshops, rooms and tools. And with employees who, with a mindset of permanent beta, drive this change from the middle out again and again.
Always committed to their own mission: We make people grow. Because at Seminaris, people should and are allowed to grow beyond themselves.
