The Best Managed Companies program already exists in well over 30 countries – this year it was also held in Austria for the first time. We also took part in the program and are incredibly pleased to have been honored yesterday evening as one of 18 Austria’s Best Managed Companies!
The aim of the program is to analyze excellently managed Austrian companies with annual sales of around EUR 100 million or more according to international standards as part of an evaluation process. The companies’ executives took part in free workshops with Deloitte experts and Raiffeisenlandesbank Niederösterreich over the past few months and were assessed using a proven evaluation model focusing on Governance & Finance, Strategy, Productivity & Innovation, and Culture & Commitment.
“Stability has already been demonstrated by HANDLER during the past 160 years. The
challenges in recent years have been to remain agile as a company despite strong growth, to help shape change processes and to proactively implement new forms of working. We have succeeded in doing this and I am therefore all the more pleased that our work and the commitment of all employees are being honored in the form of this award.” – Markus Handler, CEO HANDLER Group
