Dialogue important for further development

Dialogue with our stakeholders provides us with stimulating new input on how we can further improve our company. In the future we will broaden this dialogue.

Comprehensive stakeholder analysis serves as a basis

We implemented a comprehensive stakeholder analysis for the preparation of this GRI report. An interdisciplinary and cross-company GRI project team identified the relevant stakeholder groups, identifying their core concerns and determining the nature of their inclusion - see "These are our stakeholders".


Workshop with stakeholders planned

The findings from this process will be used in the future to establish a systematic stakeholder process. In the first step, we want to organize a workshop with representatives of the various stakeholder groups, the GRI team and the VAUDE management on key issues, based on the first GRI report.


Open to dialogue with stakeholders

As a general principle, we at VAUDE are open and interested in a dialogue with our stakeholders. In some cases there are already standardized structures, such as for the quarterly exchange with company executives. We also exchange views with stakeholders on an ad hoc basis, such as with Greenpeace and when invited to our local town council. - see also "Stakeholder"

»Dialogue is important to us because it communicates our stakeholders’ expectations and needs, and provides us with even more ideas for improvement.«

Hendrik Maier

So far, however, we still do not have a standard formalized process for the integration of stakeholders. On the basis of the first GRI report, an intensive stakeholder dialogue on key issues will be established.
