AGS @ CORE smartwork – Employer Branding Forum 🦾
On November 6, 2025, we attended the 8th Employer Branding Forum at the Fill Future Dome in Gurten. The event’s theme was “Mindfulness & Arrogance – Between Sensitivity and Self-Assertion” and attracted around 300 guests.
The speakers provided powerful insights: from mindful leadership and mental strength to insights into Nordic work cultures. We were particularly impressed by Sören Flimm, who presented the topic of resonance in such a captivating way – and even sang live – that we have to admit we are now Sören fans. 😉 His statement sticks with us: “Only those who sound good can make others vibrate!” – Yes, Sören, you did that with us!
The other contributions were also strong:
Ali Mahlodji on “we” culture, Miriam Thon on change processes, Christian Rieger on mindfulness as the key to action, and Helena Schneider on lessons learned from the happiest country in the world.
As part of the CORE community, Jasmin Brandstötter (HR) and Dita Sommerauer (Marketing) were invited to attend the exclusive customer event. There were exciting insights into new features of the CORE employee app and we were able to attend the new masterclasses.
A highlight was the company tour, during which Günter Redhammer (COO, Fill) gave a very entertaining presentation on innovations in the “Fill universe.”
Of course, there was plenty of room for networking—with good food, coffee, mocktails, and cocktails. As is so often the case, there wasn’t enough time at the end to talk to everyone. 🙈
A big thank you to the CORE team for the excellent organization and the many ideas. It was extremely valuable for us to talk to dedicated HR and marketing professionals and show how we tackle digital and personnel challenges at AGS.
🦾The Employer Branding Forum cemented its reputation as Austria’s leading HR event once again this year. We are already looking forward to the next one!🥳
