Globalism, intercultural cooperation, diversity : AT THE CENTER OF OUR DAILY WORK

“I had spent my entire professional life to date in various purchasing functions and had always been in close contact with business partners and colleagues all over the world. Despite this, I hadn’t considered moving abroad myself. I started work at Mubea more than six years ago, and spending time abroad was a topic that had been coming up every so often since the very first job interview, so I began to give it more consideration. Of course, it’s not easy to take such a step with a family and children (12 and 15 years old), but we always viewed this opportunity first and foremost as a chance to develop professionally, linguistically, and also personally. In the summer of 2018, the time came: I was asked if I would be willing to take on the role of purchasing manager in North America, and when the family agreed, we said yes.”

“A global presence is a must! Mubea is special because we are still a family business and have clear values. It’s not always easy to put the corporate values into practice in every single region, but we have the will to do it—and that’s exactly what I saw in the USA. Mubea does it well!”

“In China, the corporate culture is taken particularly seriously. People expect to get guidance from Mubea through its values: they are enthusiastic about our Mission Statement and put it into practice with huge commitment. This is essential at a global level when it is all about collaboration with other locations and colleagues. They experience the corporate culture with every encounter and understand its benefits, especially in the long term. You have to be open and take advantage of good opportunities.”
