Haniel Core Behaviors

Our core behaviors define and explain the expectations for every Haniel employee in their daily work routine. They drive the cultural change within Haniel towards outperformance and act as the basis for regular performance evaluation, recognition and development.

Easy to do business with, don’t be complicated, get to the point, see things from the customer’s perspective.

Support others in delivering the goal, stop micromanaging, let go by trusting others and reducing hierarchy.

Get out of your comfort zone, stretch for more, don’t rest on past achievements, be relentless for improvement and better results.

Show a bias for action, don’t wait, start, instigate, learn from your failures and successes, drive to win.

Have edge, take the difficult decisions, don’t be passive, be direct, transparent and clear.

Social commitment at our location deserves support. That’s why we collaborate with people in Duisburg-Ruhrort who are passionately dedicated to creating a more vibrant and better urban life. Together with strong partners, we launched the "Urban Zero" initiative in 2021, which has since evolved under the new name RuhrortPlus to place a stronger focus on the local community. The goal: to make our district more environmentally sustainable and livable. To the initiative’s website
