DesignBook of ideas

Just

get started

The book of ideas is a useful tool in the transformation process. It includes 365 empty pages on which we can re-imagine the company. At the same time, it invites us to see change as a continuous process and to reinvent ourselves time and time again.

Never stop.

DesignBlog

Blog of

ideas

The internal blog is the digital home of change. Informative, inspiring and well-conceived: every employee can use the blog to make suggestions for the new Alexander Bürkle. All ideas can be viewed in a gallery where they can be discussed, shared and liked.

The best form of employee involvement.

A magazine that takes

a look into the future

DesignMagazine

The future-focused magazine communicates inspiration and targeted information. It is a physical manifestation of change that informs its readers of today’s relevant trends and topics and showcases the exciting solutions that Alexander Bürkle has developed for and with its customers.

An invitation to flick through the future.

Container

love

12 containers form a think tank at the head office in Freiburg. A physical site for digital transformation – a place that encourages you to think big, laterally, unconventionally, vividly and openly. This is where ideas become reality and are carried through to implementation. As well as project group work, there is a regular programme of workshops and presentations.

A creative home for free thinking.

New-thinking

stations

Transformation means change. But what exactly does collaboration mean? The idea campaign for employees informs and motivates them with its travelling installations. To boldly surpass themselves or to ping-pong new solutions around, for instance.

Making change fun.

“We have spent a lot of time thinking about our employees. Companies are defined by the people who work there, and it was and is important for us to take everyone with us on this journey.”

Ready for a new world

Making digitalisation visible

Transformation

goes online

Strichpunkt has re-imagined and re-designed the company’s entire online presence. The result is a website that is consistently structured around the user. A lot of content has been removed, some has been logically combined, and related content has been intelligently linked. The user interface has become much simpler, and the user encounters an Alexander Bürkle that communicates its content and graphics clearly and simply. The layout itself is based on modules that can be selected flexibly depending on the topic.

Everything is ready for a new way of thinking and working.
