Culture
We are a value-oriented group of companies with a responsible, future-oriented and sustainable culture. Open, direct communication plays just as central a role for us as partnership-based feedback and social commitment.
We take responsibility.
Vogel Communications Group takes its social responsibility very seriously. The company has a long tradition of civic engagement in its 125-year history. Two foundations, a relief fund for employees and many of the company's sponsoring activities are proof of this.
Diversity is important to us.
We are convinced that diversity in companies strengthens innovation and creativity. We value and promote diversity of thought, perspectives, experiences, lifestyles and skills within our group of companies.
We are dialog-oriented.
Direct, open communication and a strong feedback culture are important to us. We firmly believe that we can learn from each other decisively through a personal and cooperative exchange and continue to develop with the best solutions.
Our commitment to sustainability.
For us, sustainability has always been an integral part of our daily work. We are convinced that we can develop the best solutions for a sustainable future through an open exchange and joint commitment. You can find out more about our measures here.
Our stance on the war in Ukraine
We are dismayed by the armed conflict in Ukraine. We stand in solidarity with the people in the embattled regions and the countless people seeking protection. We believe in the democratic, liberal values of Europe, in the peaceful coexistence of countries and in freedom of the press and freedom of opinion.
As a communications company, we believe in the power of dialog, knowledge-based communication, research and international economic and solution-oriented cooperation.
We donate as a company and make use of our journalistic opportunities.
