Franziska: The same characteristics that you want, but they‘re not performing very well, maybe you can move them around in your business. In a small business, it‘s a little harder. But you can definitely move people around in your company if they have the right attitude. If they have the wrong attitude that can‘t subscribe to your culture, then they have to go very quickly because it will not be a good fruit salad, otherwise. You will really only have a mono-salad.

So, people that can‘t subscribe to your culture, they have to go. People that can subscribe to your culture but they are maybe not performing perfectly in their role, maybe there is something else that they can move into, another role that they can move into. It‘s really important you have the right people in the right seats.

This is what Martina said, “being part of your team means that you can be open to share your ideas, your opinions and etc.” And Martina is actually one example, she was the right person in the right seat for, to manage our creative projects but she also had another talent, which is photography. Martina is our, basically, company photographer now. We only found that out later. She wasn‘t hired as a photographer because we didn‘t have a photography role. She was hired to run our creative projects together with Julia. Then we realised actually she is an amazing photographer and it‘s also her passion. So now she has moved her seat also into the photography part of the business. So now she‘s doing two things, not just the one only what we hired her for.
