Linde AG

Global leader for industrial and medical gases and for engineering.

In its Digital Base Camps, Linde has already developed a number of data-supported business ideas for increasing efficiency and turnover. Employees in production and sales have the core task of making these new solutions available to the entire company. In order to gain the level of digital maturity required for this task, Linde turned to us.

The solution

The aim was to make Linde’s digital transformation scalable. The approach taken by us enables employees to proactively develop digital solutions, for Linde and for customers. The multi-level program includes elements such as boot camps, standardized collaboration, and more than 15 workshops where participants not only learn from successful solutions developed by others but also test their own solutions.

From the workshop through to the development and presentation of a prototype on Demo Day, we supported Linde employees with their comprehensive expertise in the field of programmatic digital transformation. Some of the solutions developed by the employees have already been implemented.

We structured the learning journey in a modular manner so that each level can be recalled on demand.

Working together with their team, employees from operative business areas were not only introduced to innovative methods and tools that helped them to master the relevant challenges. They and their external coaching partners also challenged and supported us on a personal level, enabling us to put the theory into practice immediately in the respective teams. Building on this foundation, we shall continue to develop our teams, solutions and use cases.
