For the CHT Group GmbH, the award is above all confirmation of the transformation course it has embarked upon. In recent months, the company has fundamentally realigned its organization: with a consistent focus on customer value and customer proximity, clearer responsibilities, and simplified structures.
“This award comes at a time when our company has faced significant challenges. That makes us see it all the more as confirmation that we are on the right track. Even though we are still on this journey and have not yet fully achieved our goal, this award is valuable confirmation that we are taking the right steps,” says Eva Baumann, CEO of CHT. “Our goal is to be a clearer, more focused organization that is closer to our customers, thereby remaining competitive in the long term.”
The selection process for the Best Managed Companies Award is rigorous and is based on a comprehensive analysis of key corporate dimensions, including strategy, innovation and performance, corporate culture, as well as governance and financial management. The evaluation takes place through a multi-stage process involving in-depth interviews and a final selection by an independent jury composed of representatives from the business, academic, and media sectors.
From the perspective of the CHT Group GmbH, however, the focus is not on the award itself, but on what it reflects: a clear strategic direction, an efficient organization, and a value-based corporate culture that actively shapes change.
