Hochschule Stralsund – University of Applied Sciences

Even the best idea needs people to support it - even the best company needs motivated employees to be successful. Prof. Dr. Jens Mohrenweiser from the Faculty of Economics at Stralsund University of Applied Sciences has researched a key to effective human resources management. For his contribution "Management Practices and Productivity: Does Employee Representation Play a Moderating Role?" he received the award for the most practice-relevant research achievement in the field of HR (Human Resources) in 2024 from the CIPD. The CIPD is the UK professional association of HR professionals. It is very active in the UK in the transfer of science to practice and in the accreditation of educational qualifications and is therefore comparable to the role of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Germany as a whole.

Prof. Mohrenweiser received the award together with Professor Uwe Jirjahn and Dr. Marie-Christine Laible. Their research examines how employee representation and cooperative relationships between employees and management can increase productivity and improve HR practices. Their joint statement: "We are delighted to receive the award (...). Our research combines scientific rigor with practical relevance and shows that trusting, cooperative working relationships and strong employee representation are the key to effective HR management and support corporate success."
