What does the future of work in Germany really look like? This question is on the minds of politicians, business leaders and society alike, and opinions are divided.
While Chancellor Friedrich Merz calls for a ‘tremendous effort’ in his first government statement to make Germany a high-performance economy again, experts warn that a one-sided focus on ‘working more’ is not the answer.
The debate about whether we need to work more or differently is gaining momentum. One thing is clear: the world of work is facing fundamental change, shaped by technology, changing values and demographic shifts. For companies, managers and event organisers, this means that anyone who wants to provide guidance must actively shape the discourse.
Between pressure to perform and future skills
The German Economic Institute provides figures that support Merz's call for longer working hours. However, trade unions, academics and numerous voices from the world of work argue that it is not just more performance that is needed, but a new understanding of work. Instead of focusing solely on quantity, the focus is shifting more towards quality, meaning and flexibility.
This is where our speakers come in. They do not offer platitudes, but ideas for the future of work:
