A previous post invited people to the traditional benefit concert at Gaffenberg, organized by the Lions Club Heilbronn-Wartberg. The club supports social projects in the region. All proceeds from the concert were intended to go directly to these projects and help improve the living conditions of local people.

The concert evening combined music and entertainment with a good cause. Visitors were able to celebrate together while supporting social projects in the region. This retrospective describes the invitation from that time.

The event “Skilled Workers in the Region,” organized by the Wirtschaftsjunioren Heilbronn-Franken, focused on securing skilled workers. It offered regional companies the opportunity to learn about the topic and meet speakers.

OPTUM drew attention to the information evening and invited participation. In addition to the presentations, the focus was on the opportunity to exchange experiences and perspectives with other participants. This article looks back on that invitation.

OPTUM reported on the sponsorship of the traditional benefit concert of the Lions Club Heilbronn-Wartberg. The proceeds from the event were entirely earmarked for social projects and were intended to improve the living conditions of people in the region.

The Lions Club, as a charitable organization, is committed to these projects. OPTUM made its own contribution through this sponsorship and demonstrated its connection to the community.

The company expressed its desire to raise as much money as possible for the good cause and thanked the Lions Club Heilbronn-Wartberg for the opportunity to support this work.

Managing Director Kamer Sahin, along with four other women in leadership positions, stood on the podium on November 30, 2011, and answered important questions on the topic of "Career Opportunities and Self-Employment for Women".

Topics such as managing family and self-employment, the framework for successful women in leadership positions, and the acceptance of female managers in the market were addressed.

The panellists stressed that authenticity, subject knowledge and competence matter for successful leadership, regardless of gender. Kamer Sahin summed this up: “Whether male or female, successful leadership requires us to be authentic, objective and competent!” More information about the event is available here: www.kreativ-hoch-3.de

We, OPTUM GmbH in Heilbronn, celebrated our eighth company anniversary in 2011, marking the occasion with a celebration of our company philosophy. We hosted an event at our premises in the Experimenta, inviting long-standing business partners under the motto "8-die-lacht" to meet in person and get to know each other better. Our goal is to harmoniously connect individuals and companies and to foster integration in all areas of business.

Among the approximately 60 participants at the event were also well-known figures from the region, including politician Josip Juratovic and Chamber of Commerce Vice President Oliver Durst. Both emphasized our commitment to equal pay and fair wages and praised us for having achieved so much in the region.

OPTUM's anniversary was not only an opportunity to celebrate, but also to reflect and engage with important social issues. OPTUM GmbH thus once again demonstrated its responsibility and commitment to an inclusive and diverse society.

We had the opportunity to experience Berlin's political scene up close for a week. Our managing director, Kamer Sahin, participated in the "Know-how-Transfer" project of Wirtschaftsjunioren Deutschland together with around 200 other Wirtschaftsjunioren and members of the Bundestag. The aim of this collaboration is to establish direct contact between politicians and entrepreneurs and to give both sides an insight into each other's world.

At the beginning of May, the Wirtschaftsjunioren accompanied their elected representatives, attended meetings, and discussed issues with leading figures from the various parliamentary groups. In return, the politicians are invited to visit our companies and thus receive firsthand information about the current economic situation. Our primary focus was on temporary agency work.

At Optum, we have implemented equal pay because we know that our employees who go to other companies as temporary agency workers perform the same work as their permanent colleagues there.

Josip Juratovic, the Member of Parliament for Heilbronn, welcomes our initiative and works closely with representatives of the Chamber of Industry and Commerce (IHK) and the Wirtschaftsjunioren. He emphasizes the importance of good communication between politicians and business leaders to ensure fair and good employment. He is therefore pleased that young entrepreneurs are taking the time to look behind the scenes of politics. To the press release

The twinning project between the Wirtschaftsjunioren Heilbronn-Franken and JCI Istanbul in 2010 was an important milestone in the International Working Group.

This was the first meeting of the two groups in Istanbul, where they could get to know each other and discuss possible cooperation and joint projects.

The meeting was a valuable opportunity to establish international contacts and promote cooperation with other younger entrepreneurs and executives from the Istanbul region.

The Wirtschaftsjunioren Heilbronn-Franken is constantly striving to expand its network and forge new partnerships in order to enhance its skills and experience and contribute to the development of the regional economy.

The twinning project with JCI Istanbul was an important step in this direction and has certainly helped to strengthen and promote cooperation between the two groups.
