From Taiwan to Australia: Growing beyond borders. What happens when talent, opportunity and the courage to embrace change come together? For our colleague Wayne Chen, it meant taking the next step in his career and moving from Taiwan to Australia to take on new responsibilities in Finance & Controlling. As part of our Talent Development Programs, Wayne expanded his professional network, gained valuable insights across functions and regions, and discovered new ways to contribute to BSH's success. His journey shows that professional growth is about more than taking on a new role. It's about broadening perspectives, learning from others and being open to opportunities beyond familiar boundaries. At BSH, we believe in empowering our people to grow, connect and make an impact, wherever their journey takes them.

What does it take to become a better negotiator? 🤝 Preparation, experience, and the opportunity to learn from one another. Meet Romy Scheerer, Senior Negotiation Specialist in Global Purchasing. What started with developing her first negotiation training from scratch has grown into years of sharing expertise, creating new learning opportunities, and helping colleagues strengthen their negotiation skills. From structured preparation to stakeholder management, Romy makes sure that learning goes beyond theory and can be applied to real business situations. And learning is never a one-way street. For Romy, being part of our global trainer community also means exchanging experiences, gaining new perspectives, and continuously growing. Through her dedication, she shows how sharing knowledge can help others in their development and make a real difference in their everyday work. Thank you, Romy, for sharing your expertise and helping us grow together! 💙 👉 What's the most valuable thing you've learned from a colleague? Share your experience in the comments!

What makes someone the person you turn to when things get complicated? For El Hadji Ndongo Diaw, Fabia Herzog from our MCO team is exactly that person. That is why the imaginary “Making Complex Things Simple Award” goes to her. 🏆 Fabia stands out for finding clear and pragmatic answers, even when the topic itself is complex. That ability is especially valuable in Material Compliance. Requirements need to be understood, translated into practice, and communicated in a way that gives teams clarity and helps them move forward with confidence. With Hashtag#Enablers2Innovate, we are putting the people behind Material Compliance in the spotlight and showing how their collaboration helps turn complexity into progress.

🧠 What we eat can affect more than just our energy levels. A skipped lunch. A quick snack between meetings. Coffee instead of a proper meal. On busy days, nutrition often becomes something we deal with “later”. But our gut and brain are closely connected. What we eat can influence how focused, energized and balanced we feel throughout the day. That’s why, on #WorldMentalHealthDay, we’re taking a closer look at the connection between nutrition and mental wellbeing. With the Bosch BetterFood App https://lnkd.in/duF-9mF2, we empower not only our employees but also our customers to find balanced, nutrient-rich recipes – easily identified through transparent nutritional information – adapt meals to their preferences and follow easy step-by-step instructions. No big lifestyle overhaul needed. Sometimes, supporting your wellbeing starts with something as simple as a good meal. 💚 #MentalHealth #Wellbeing #Nutrition #BoschBetterFood

When do you get that “wow, we did it” feeling with a colleague? 🤝 We asked Aaron Bakos, Head of Standards and Regulations, North America, what makes his collaboration with Christian Clauss from our MCO team so rewarding. Strong collaboration across our country TE teams and MCO network also plays an important role in what matters most to our consumers: products that are safe, compliant and worthy of their trust. By staying closely connected, we can respond quickly and confidently to regulatory changes and help ensure that consumers can continue to rely on our brands. With Hashtag#Enablers2Innovate, we are highlighting the people behind Material Compliance and the collaboration that helps protect consumer trust while keeping us ready for changing regulatory requirements.

Together with Atos Group, we celebrated International Women in AI Day with a joint panel discussion, bringing together perspectives from both companies. Henrike Kone and Marius Kiskemper from Atos Group, together with Charlotte Witte and Zeynep Kandemir from BSH, explored a question that is becoming increasingly relevant: As AI grows more capable, which human skills will matter most in the future of work? The discussion highlighted how technological understanding needs to go hand in hand with empathy, judgment, creativity, ethical thinking and collaboration. It also showed why diverse perspectives are so important when shaping and working with AI, especially as new roles, skills and ways of working continue to emerge. A big thank you to our moderator Masako Toyoda from BSH and the WoMenForBSH Core Team, as well as to the initiators of the event, Marion Weissenbach from BSH and Gisela Sagromski from Atos Group, for bringing this joint panel discussion to life. #WAIDAY #TeamBSH #Diversitymatters
