+++ For staffing reasons, counseling at KMB is currently limited. English-language psychosocial counseling in particular can only be offered in urgent cases in the form of an initial consultation. There may be longer waiting times. We are actively working to strengthen our team again and ask for your understanding. Please contact our counselors directly by email to make an appointment, thank you. +++

 

Welcome to the Staff Unit

At KIT, different people, ways of working, and opinions meet. Usually an added value for all participants results from the confrontation with different personalities. However, sometimes work-related issues as well as personal problems become a burden for individuals or the professional environment.

The sum of the stresses can lead to us reaching our limits or not knowing what to do.

In these situations, the staff unit serves as a contact point for all KIT members at both locations and offers competent help: counseling for all employees and executives in form of individual advice, coaching, conflict consultation, mediation, team support and referral to other support services.

The goals of the staff unit are to maintain or restore the well-being and ability to work of all employees. For this purpose the willingness and ability to solve problems and conflicts is supported as well as the ability of individuals and groups to communicate and act.

The counseling is confidential, counselors are subject to the legal duty of confidentiality.

In addition to providing assistance in concrete cases, the staff unit strives to continuously improve the collegial work culture at KIT by strengthening personal and leadership responsibility. In this context, openness, tolerance and appreciation as core values of the community at KIT have top priority.

With best regards

Your KMB Team
