One. Two three, pause. Five, six, seven, pause. Sombrero,
Sententa una, Enchufla complicado. “Salsa is a very impul-
sive dance” says Bianca Weichert. Having worked at EPG for
over seven years, she knows precisely which situations need
to be handled with a certain rhythm. In her position as HR
Assistant she needs to be flexible and well organized. She de-
rives the necessary energy and endurance for her daily work
from her regular dancing training. “In the human resources
department I have to constantly adjust my working rhythm to
new situations, particularly when it comes to applicant man-
agement. I am also responsible for securing the best talents to
work at EPG. This requires discipline and concentration – just
like dancing,” says Bianca Weichert.
“Fluent and energetic movements are what makes a genuine
salsa” explains Arthur Grzesik. Legs, arms and body position
must all be perfectly attuned to each other. The dance lives
from accentuated shapes. You have always to be alert and
think ahead for what’s coming next? This is just the same as in
his role as Project Manager. Arthur Grzesik has been a perma-
nent presence at EPG for 15 years. He still supports his very
first project. The 43-year old believes very strongly in the flex-
ibility and high level of solutions expertise in a very dynamic
market environment. He was aware of the flexible structures
and quick decision-making processes from his very first day.
He had his interview on New Year's Eve and was hired on 6
January. “Of course EPG has grown hugely over the last few
years, but its open culture still remains today and we also em-
body that with our customers.”
In order to always get the maximum out of everything, Arthur
Grzesik also sometimes follows an arduous path. He sees him-
self as both a consultant and an optimizer. “We not only sim-
ply launch our software, we are also responsible for ensuring
that our customers achieve the most profitable solution from
it,” he says. “Sometimes this also involves a bit of stubbornness
to convince people.”
As Project Manager, Arthur Grzesik, also ensures the right
rhythm. His 22-strong team consists of application consul-
tants, software developers and apprentices. It is a colorful
mixture where everyone can rely on each other. Projects are
implemented together which is important particularly in view
of the increasing complexity in intralogistics processes. “Ev-
erything is interconnected. Every customer has specific re-
quirements that we adapt to on a case-by-case basis. Salsa is
very similar in this regard. Every dance partner is different
which means you have to stay flexible,” he adds.
In rhythm with logistics.
