To mark the 20th anniversary of the “wir” magazine, Veronika Lindner talks in the podcast about the development of the Lindner Group, her personal experiences as an entrepreneur and her vision for the future of the family-owned company.
It is a reunion with history: In 2016, company founder Hans Lindner spoke with “wir” magazine about responsibility, growth and the future of the family business. Ten years later, editor Sarah Bautz revisits this conversation as part of the major “20 years of wir” anniversary podcast – this time with Veronika Lindner, who is now Chairwoman of the Supervisory Board.
Ten years of transformation and growth
The conversation focuses on key milestones in the company’s development and the question of how sustainable growth can be combined with the values of a family-owned business. Veronika Lindner reflects on her personal journey within the Lindner Group, new management structures and the challenges that have accompanied the company’s transformation.
Shaping the future through digitalisation and AI
Alongside looking back, the conversation also turns towards the future. How is the Group positioning itself in the fields of digitalisation and artificial intelligence? How can company data be used effectively? And what role will the third generation play as it increasingly becomes involved in the business? Where do we want to be in 20 years?
A conversation with depth
The discussion highlights that the two interviews are separated by ten years of intensive development, characterised by growth, new structures and the right balance between entrepreneurial responsibility and a strong family spirit. It demonstrates that the future of the Group will continue to be shaped together – with commitment, innovation and a shared vision.
