Be brave - the first steps towards a culture of courage
The kick-off for the start of the journey of courage came with the realization that, in addition to numerous existing offers and initiatives, an instrument was needed to live the values of appreciation, openness, responsibility and integrity at AUDI AG even more strongly and to embed them in the organization. The answer was quickly found: More courage is needed! But what exactly does courage mean? And what are courageous behaviors? What does this mean for AUDI AG? And how can the potential for courage in the organization be increased?
The AUDI AG Corporate Culture Team has set itself the goal of defining the term courage for AUDI AG and establishing it tangibly in the organization in harmony with a positive "error culture" and an open feedback culture.
