Hamburg \/ World - By introducing the \u2018workation\u2019 approach, AKKU SYS combines flexible working with travel experiences, thereby fostering staff retention and business growth. Remote working, part-time arrangements and a basic understanding of intercultural dynamics are key factors for both employers and employees.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Workation - a symbiosis of work and holiday - is becoming increasingly attractive. Most companies have firmly integrated remote working, mobile working and working from home into their work structures, but for the most part not voluntarily. As we know, it was the coronavirus pandemic that forced a rethink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, while many companies are at least partially tying their employees back to their desks, colleagues are even leaving the country, at least temporarily, with the support of the wholesaler. After all, Workation offers employees the opportunity to work from anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manuela Biesterfeldt, Head of HR at AKKU SYS, comments: \u201eFlexible working models not only contribute to staff satisfaction, but are also a sign of the trust we place in our employees. At the same time, thanks to the generally stronger digital connectivity \u2013 for example, via social media during workations \u2013 they also give us access to further talent and thus support our company\u2019s growth.\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vanessa Wurster (Head of E-Commerce) and Lisa Bleser (Head of Online Marketing) have successfully introduced the concept of a \u2018workation\u2019 at AKKU SYS. During their three-month tour of South America, they were able to seamlessly combine their work with cultural and language experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"We adapted our working hours to the time difference and were therefore able to work efficiently with the team. After work, we also had enough time to explore new places and immerse ourselves in the Latin American culture,\" reports Vanessa Wurster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The work was organised effectively through careful planning and the use of efficient communication tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the background interview, the two give numerous tips and emphasise what you should look out for. They are certain of one thing: the workation also gave them the opportunity to organise their free time in a variety of ways, from sightseeing and visiting museums to taking part in the famous carnival in Rio and hiking to Machu Picchu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Managing Director Joachim Koop sees a major opportunity for AKKU SYS: \u201eIf we are to maintain our current growth trajectory \u2013 with turnover of around 75% in 2022 \u2013 our approach to modern working is a fundamental factor. The possibility \u2013 where organisationally feasible \u2013 of working from other locations around the world is not only attractive to existing and potential employees, but also enables us to expand our own network.\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n
