BVB Partnership

#ActLikeALeader

Anyone can be a leader by setting a good example that inspires, motivates and helps those around them to make the world a better and more sustainable place, today and tomorrow. We call such people LEADERS.

And it’s not confined exclusively to our labs, production halls and offices. That is why, together with our long-standing partner Borussia Dortmund, we are calling on people not only to talk, but also to act.

There’s more that connects Evonik and Borussia Dortmund than just a love of football. We also share the same understanding of modern leadership culture. Because that’s the only way we can go beyond together and make the world a better place.

What we mean by modern leadership

Anyone can be a leader, including you, regardless of your position.
Promote diversity, openness and trust as important success factors.
You are Rolemodel, encourager and mentor for all who work with you.
As a leader, you inspire and motivate your colleagues again and again.
Share your knowledge and empower others to succeed together.
See sustainability as the balance of economic, environmental and social criteria.
Always consider the benefits to society when making decisions.
