Many companies in rural areas are familiar with the arguments: Too remote. Too unknown. Not enough applications.
But is it really because of the location? Or is it rather a matter of how visible we are as employers?
The latest issue of Floor Seven’s HR Magazine features, among other things, an interview with our CEO, Patrik Dörr, that addresses this question.
His clear, practical perspective: It’s not the situation that’s the bottleneck.
Rather, it’s often a lack of visibility. After all, people today don’t just choose a job.
They want to understand:
– What a company stands for.
– How leadership is put into practice.
– Whether the culture is a good fit for them.
One thought that really sticks with me:
“Training isn’t just about securing the next generation. Training is about visibility.”
Because the same principle applies here: “
” We must make paths visible before we can walk them together.
