Part of Bertelsmann
arvato is a part of the Bertelsmann group. Bertelsmann’s corporate culture is one of mutually beneficial partnership between employees and the company. An entrepreneurial spirit, creativity and citizenship are high on our list of values, too.
Partnership
Quality, efficiency, innovation and growth depend upon motivated, hungry people who identify with our values. Our participatory leadership approach emphasises mutual trust and respect, as well as delegation of responsibility. Work at Bertelsmann, and you’ll enjoy the highest autonomy, comprehensive information and the chance to take part in decision-making and in the financial success of the company. Your professional development and long-term employment are also a key priority with us.
Entrepreneurship
Decentralisation is at the heart of our management philosophy, enabling employees to act with flexibility, responsibility, efficiency and entrepreneurial freedom. This entrepreneurial spirit runs right through the company, with operating businesses run by managers who act as entrepreneurs. They enjoy considerable independence and bear full responsibility for the performance of their companies. Our executives act for their own businesses, but also in the best interests of the group as a whole.
Creativity
Bertelsmann is a home for artists, authors and creative talents in all fields of business. We foster their creative development and commercial success, protect intellectual property, and promote artistic freedom and independent thinking. We protect democracy and human rights, and respect traditions and cultural values. Consequently, our content reflects a wide range of viewpoints and opinions. It’s all backed by continuous innovation and improvement, guided by customer needs and interests, both in media services and in content businesses.
Citizenship
Because our management company controls the majority of voting rights, the continuity and development of Bertelsmann as an independent entity is ensured. Our shareholders believe that, as property owners, we have an obligation to the community and must make a valuable contribution to society. The work done by the Bertelsmann Foundation – to which the majority of Bertelsmann shares has been contributed – is also guided by this principle. We follow both the spirit and the letter of the law, maintaining high standards of ethical conduct and acting responsibly towards society and the environment.
