As the worldwide leading company in the chemical field, we face the many challenges that a continuously changing world economy confronts us with. We rise to these challenges as we see them as opportunities to develop and to successfully shape the future of BASF. In order to remain at the top in a global market, we need to employ committed people from different cultures who can offer us fresh ideas and in-depth knowledge.
We have made it our principle to fill leadership positions at BASF with people from within the company.
Our employees, nominated to hold positions of leadership within the company, have to be equipped with the principles and values prescribed by the BASF's “Leadership Compass”:
Clarity: We encourage openness and candor. We seek and welcome opinions that differ from our own. We make decisions that are understandable and justifiable.
Enthusiasm and Inspiration: We create a climate that inspires all employees and business partners – a climate in which all give their best.
Being a Role Model for Performance and Speed: We strive for a performance culture, and we embody and encourage a “winner’s” mindset.
Demonstrating Strategic and Operational Leadership: We hereby establish priorities and maintain a balance between short-term and long-term thinking and actions. Leadership Levels I and II focus mainly on strategic leadership and, for the most part, stay out of day-to-day operational business.
BASF has adopted the approach to "form the best team in the chemicals industry" not only for leadership positions, but also for all positions and at all levels, as a global strategic guideline on its path to the future. Within this framework, we shape our employment process with utmost care and pay particular attention to attract people who are adequately qualified to sustain the values and principles of BASF:
- Sustainable Profitable Performance
- Innovation for the Success of Our Customers
- Safety, Health and Environmental Responsibility
- Personal and Professional Competence
- Mutual Respect and Open Dialogue
- Integrity
