At the Great Place To Work Lab @ HWZ, we want to break new ground in understanding and shaping organizational cultures. We provide a platform where people and companies can approach and discuss the topic of collaboration in organizations from different perspectives.
In our view, on one hand the development of culture contributes to value creation of organizations. On the other hand, it should also serve the identification, self-efficacy and well-being of people in the workplace.
The Great Place To Work Lab @ HWZ is a collaboration between Great Place To Work Switzerland and the HWZ Zurich University of Applied Sciences in Business Administration. Through this collaboration, we aim to provide a platform that facilitates the transfer of scientific findings into practice. And conversely, to give companies the opportunity to examine current issues and challenges using scientific methods, develop proposed solutions and derive concrete measures.
Thanks to the collaboration between Great Place To Work Switzerland and the HWZ Zurich University of Applied Sciences in Business Administration, we are able to offer the following services through our members of the Great Place To Work Lab @ HWZ:
The CAS Business Culture Design program, run in cooperation with HWZ, teaches the fundamentals of a value-oriented workplace culture and deepens this knowledge through innovative methods, exciting case studies, and a strong practical focus.
Our leadership training is aimed at managers who want to establish or strengthen a value-creation-oriented workplace culture in their organizations.
The offer is aimed at individual managers, but can also be implemented for entire organizations.
Our interactive events provide new perspectives on workplace culture and collaboration in organizations. We want to continuously expand our Great Place To Work Lab @ HWZ community to promote exchange and collaboration between individuals and organizations.
We work with organizations and individuals to shape workplace culture. We do this through consulting and research collaborations (e.g. Innosuisse innovation check).
We have collaborated with the following organizations in the past at the HWZ Zurich University of Applied Sciences in Business Administration to create value-oriented workplace cultures:

Dr. Nicolas Berkowitsch
