In December 2024, shortly before Rainer Gottwald's big boxing event at the Karlsruhe Christmas Circus, the family received a special visit: A SWR camera crew accompanied Rainer and his team to gain exclusive insights not only into the world of boxing, but also into the structures and people behind Sauer Systems . The focus was on a very special force that contributes significantly to the company's success: female power .
Women who shape success
Rainer was accompanied by his wife Tik , Karin Sauer , and Nicole Philipp , the Head of Marketing at Sauer Systems. They represent the strong female side of the company—not only supporting but also leading the way in expansion and development. The SWR report highlights precisely this important role:
How do women influence corporate strategy?
How do they bring fresh air and new ideas into an often traditional industry?
International influences as a success factor
Another exciting topic was the company's cultural diversity. Sauer Systems benefits from a broad wealth of experience and diverse working cultures in Germany, Thailand, and the Philippines . While structured processes and precise planning are the focus in Germany, Thai and Filipino influences bring with them a high degree of flexibility and adaptability.
This synergy is a key to success – and shows that diversity is not just an asset, but an indispensable strength.
From the boxing ring to corporate success: a strong team
The SWR report gives you exciting insights into the world of the Gottwalds , who set new standards not only in boxing but also in business with passion and commitment. The boxing event at the Karlsruhe Christmas Circus was another highlight, which Rainer planned with the same precision and professionalism as his business projects.
Here too it becomes clear: teamwork – especially with strong women at your side – is a recipe for success that has proven itself time and again.
Vision for the future: Growing together
Whether in sports or business – at Gottwald and Sauer Systems, team spirit counts. The SWR report highlights the importance of empowering women in leadership positions and leveraging cultural diversity as a driver for innovation and growth . The story behind this success is not only inspiring, but also proof that companies that embrace diversity achieve sustained success.
Full speed ahead – Sauer Systems and the Gottwalds show: Strong women and intercultural cooperation are the key to the future!
