Study: Kaleidoscope - How we organise our future

Together with the TU Munich, the Charta der Vielfalt e. V. publishes the study "Kaleidoscope" on the compatibility of work and private life. The study combines a variety of individual parts of work and private life and makes them more compatible. Over 450 ideas from online research and numerous interviews point the way into the future organization of our working world. Thus, the association meets fears due to the rapid changes in economy, technology and society.

Study: Kaleidoscope - Idea cards

On the basis of best-practice research and interviews with employees, 88 idea cards will be accompanied by innovative solutions from practice and ideas. Many ideas revolve around changing organizational forms of life in companies or institutions, the place of residence or hubs for work and meetings.

Study: Diversity in Germany

On the occasion of the 10-year anniversary of the Charta der Vielfalt, 349 organisations that have signed the Charta der Vielfalt were surveyed in the time period between July and September about their diversity management. At the same time, HR managers in 250 randomly selected companies that have not signed the voluntary commitment were surveyed. What was found was that two out of three companies in Germany are not prepared for the foreseeable changes brought about by a diverse business culture. At the same time, a great majority, namely 65 percent, are aware of the fact that including different life models, cultural perspectives and experiences brings advantages to one’s company.
