You as HR Manager for Social Media at the Summit: How did that come about?
Everyone takes part in the Univention Summit – whether from HR, Marketing or Professional Services. Together with Yvonne from Marketing, I was assigned to the social media posts and the interviews with the participants. Some of my colleagues thought that this might be a good fit for me – and they were right! I really enjoyed the summit! I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Yvonne once again, she was in charge of all the postings and structured the process. That was really great and I think we really rocked it together! 🙂
In your day-to-day work, you mainly look inwards at the company. How did you perceive Univention through the external contacts at the Summit?
That’s right, in my day-to-day work I tend to work in the “background” and the Summit was the first time I was really in the thick of things instead of just being there. That was very refreshing and also exciting. It was nice to come into contact with many customers and partners through the interviews. Through the social media posts, we were also able to capture the impulses of the people and the event and share them with the outside world. From my perspective, the summit really had a lot of character! There was a lot of exchange and laughter everywhere, but more serious topics were also discussed and considered – it was a really good vibe overall.
What are you personally taking away from the Summit?
I want to get out much more often in the future – out of my everyday environment and out of my comfort zone! My tasks at the Summit were great fun and at the same time really exhausting. To be honest, I had underestimated my role there. Always being surrounded by people and constantly on the move really exhausted me on the one hand and made me totally happy on the other. I’m glad that I was able to share this with Yvonne.
Overall, it was a great experience and clearly gave me new impulses. For example, I realized that I love capturing moments in pictures. I was also impressed by the many friendly and open conversations I had during the interviews and the evening program. I perceived a totally amazing and energetic Summit atmosphere with a coherent program that I was happy to be a part of.
Next year again?
Absolutely! 🙂
