Kern strategy meeting

The new corporate culture at Kern also includes transparent and open internal communication. Consequently, the internal strategy meeting at the Kongress Hotel Seepark in Thun focused on team building and the development of forward-looking strategies.

Kern Strategiemeeting Mai 2024

The first day was characterized by an exchange between the international management, the Kern family and the Kern Board of Directors. Together, the workshop participants worked out characteristic core elements and explored the question of what values the Kern Group stands for. The aim was to develop a vision for the future direction of the company.

The accompanying program, including an excursion into the Swiss mountains, also provided plenty of opportunity for discussion. The second day focused on concrete measures to implement the strategies discussed in line with the developed vision and values. The main focus was on defining the next steps and responsibilities.

‘The meeting made the new sense of unity within the Kern Group tangible for everyone. The very trusting cooperation between the management, the Kern family and the Board of Directors is bearing fruit, as the participants were able to experience on both days. The meeting has sharpened our view of the future,' says Stefan Wüthrich and adds: ’The strategy for the coming months and years has become clear. Now it's time to realize the various measures and projects.’
