Dr. Herzhoff on growth, productivity & circular economy. Julia Fritz on effective workplace safety through dialogue.

Economic growth is far more than a macroeconomic indicator – it directly shapes social systems, healthcare, education, and individual quality of life. In issue 55 of GOOD TO KNOW!, Dr. Carsten Herzhoff, Managing Director and CTO/COO of the Lohmann Group, makes his position clear: protecting prosperity requires continuous gains in productivity and a genuine commitment to innovation. He also argues that the circular economy and technological openness can bridge the gap between growth ambitions and responsible resource use.

In the second interview, Julia Fritz, Head of Health & Safety at Sky, challenges the checkbox mentality in occupational safety. Her approach: effective workplace safety is built through dialogue, real process understanding, and a willingness to see the bigger picture.

Two perspectives, one shared message: action matters – now, not later.
