The IMPART Philosophy
Keep your finger on the pulse… we will help you get ahead.
The most important thing for us is development, which pertains both to us as a team and to each individual personally. Development also includes mistakes and detours. Slowing down and mindfulness are important to us in order to provide leisure and space for experimental learning and creativity.
The greatest possible autonomy and freedom for our employees and, of course, a lot of personal responsibility is the only way to make working together fun and sustainable.
In this respect, we deliberately do not serve the current trend, but are well on the way to the working world of the future, which will look quite different from the present. Ideas and connections are more important to us than the design of the packaging. We do not attach any importance to perfection for self-esteem, but for content innovation.
