“Standing still is a step backwards.”
When I started at Novapor, there were only a handful of us. My brother, my father, an uncle, another uncle, the driver. Everyone had to be able to do everything. This meant that each of us had to take on different tasks, which gave me a solid foundation in different areas. Over time, I realized that my interest and passion lay in the technical field. Perhaps this also has something to do with my previous training at Lufthansa. I was always curious about how the then handmade parts could be optimized using modern technology, such as CNC systems, and this opened up new opportunities for us in sales. This curiosity and interest in how things work and what needs to be protected helps me to quickly put myself in the customer's shoes.
Personal contact with customers is of key importance. I have always worked to build up a large network and I think it is important to be interested in the customers' products. If you understand what they produce, you can also find better solutions. The goal is always to ensure that the customer is satisfied - but I firmly believe that the best solution is always the one that works best. If the customer's budget is not sufficient, we work together to find a solution that satisfies both sides. We see that we have customers who have been buying from us since day one and who have really been our customers for over 60 years.
What drives me the most is the belief that there is a solution to every problem. Ultimately, I am always looking for new challenges, both professionally and privately. Because for me, the moment I say I have everything under control and everything is running perfectly, the pace is too slow. That means I have to increase the pace in order to set new boundaries again. And that's how it is in the company too.
important for me:
ENDURANCE SPORTS – HARD ROCK – ALWAYS NEW LIMITS – LAND AND PEOPLE – NETWORKING
