Die Unternehmen haben zunehmend Probleme, offene Stellen besetzt zu bekommen. Das wird sich vor dem Hintergrund des demographischen Wandels nochmals massiv verschärfen. Da wird es für die Arbeitgeber immer wichtiger, durch beschäftigtenorientierte Vorgehensweisen in die Arbeitgeberattraktivität zu investieren. Auf diese Weise kann man dafür sorgen, dass Stellen über die Demographie hinaus möglichst besetzt bleiben. Ich unterhalte mich mit Anja Rorich, Betriebsrätin bei Rossmann, Kim Jeanny Diehl, Betriebsrätin bei Isabellenhütte und Ali Adib, Betriebsrat bei UCB Pharma darüber, mit welchen Möglichkeiten Betriebsräte und Arbeitgeber auf das Thema "Wertschätzung" einzahlen können. Herausgekommen ist gleich zum Jahresbeginn ein echtes Highlight meiner Podcast Reihe. Ich kann nur jedem Betriebsrat warm ans Herz legen, sich das anzuschauen! #Betriebsrat #360GradBR #Arbeitgeberattraktivität #Wertschätzung

Timestamps: 4:19 - Being an immigrant and being an entrepreneur 7:23 - Convincing your boss to help you start a startup 10:30 - What are chronic wounds? 16:10 - Making personalized therapies affordable 24:00 - The long development cycles in biotech About Priyanka Dutta Passecker: Priyanka Dutta Passecker is the co-founder and CEO of Healiva, a biotech startup using advanced cell therapy to treat acute and chronic wounds. She holds a PhD in Neuroscience from Trinity College Dublin and worked for companies like UCB Pharma, Axol Bioscience Ltd and Bioseutica before starting Healiva in 2020. 2-3% of the elderly suffer from painful venous/arterial leg ulcers and nearly 25% of diabetics may develop diabetic foot ulcers in their lifetimes. This burden is borne by healthcare systems, which spend 2% of their budgets on wound management. Worst of all, about 60% of chronic wounds remain unhealed. That's why Healiva is such a game changer: they use 3 non-virus-based enzymes from codfish pancreas, which, due to their provenance, are quite stable at room temperature, and therefore can be stored in a liquid form and used as a spray. They're currently getting ready for pre-clinical studies to prove the safety and efficacy of their product. The cover portrait was edited by www.smartportrait.io.
