How Maurice Gundt harmonizes entire companies
Behind the face of a steadily ticking clock lies a perfectly orchestrated interplay of the finest mechanics. Every cog and every lever works precisely—a small disturbance and the system loses its rhythm. This is how Maurice Gundt sees successful companies: as precisely coordinated systems in which knowledge, structures and communication seamlessly interlock to achieve goals and enable growth.
Onboarding at the push of a button
With his knowledge-saving strategy, Maurice Gundt creates structures that bring efficiency and clarity to the company. This is particularly noticeable when new employees are onboarded: processes are documented in such a way that new employees can learn the most important procedures at the push of a button. Instructions and videos provide them with the knowledge they need for their tasks.
‘I am fascinated by systems that work. When everything is interlinked, a small idea can become something big,’ says Maurice Gundt. He has observed that many companies work inefficiently because they underestimate the complexity of their processes. When experienced employees leave the company, valuable knowledge is often lost—especially if it has not been documented anywhere. ’My job is to make the existing knowledge in the company visible and to document it sustainably.’
Why explain something 100 times when one time is enough?
Maurice Gundt has been enthusiastic about this since he was young. Even as a schoolboy, he was optimising processes—from planning small events to organizing large ones.
His career has led him into the world of professional football, among other things. For more than 17 years, he worked behind the scenes in the Bundesliga, ensuring that everything ran smoothly at TSG Hoffenheim matches. The processes in the stadium were comparable to clockwork: IT systems showed the course of the game, sound systems made every match an experience, and a 15-person team ensured smooth operations.
‘As the event director, I needed good employees and clear processes,’ he says. Every little mistake in the direction process would have been noticed immediately. ’This showed me how important invisible systems are for visible success.’
From stadium to knowledge saver
During his time at TSG Hoffenheim, Maurice Gundt built up his own event agency and was responsible for projects for well-known companies such as BMW and Audi. During the coronavirus pandemic, he developed concepts for virtual events that were used by IBM, among others.
All these projects showed how crucial documented processes and accessible knowledge are. The knowledge securer strategy emerged from these experiences, and today Maurice Gundt uses it to support companies in digitizing their processes, securing knowledge in the long term, and making new employees productive in record time.
His approach: reduce knowledge and use it efficiently. He relies on simple, pragmatic solutions. Entrepreneurs appreciate his clarity. ‘Complicated systems don’t work in the long term. Simplicity is the key,’ he explains.
Why secure knowledge?
Knowledge of structures and processes helps to avoid mistakes and makes the business scalable. When knowledge is documented, processes run smoothly, onboarding new employees saves time and money, and employee satisfaction is sustainably increased.
Maurice Gundt is an award-winning expert in digital onboarding and employee training. With his knowledge-saving strategy, he has already helped numerous companies to build their own digital learning academy—a proven system that makes knowledge, induction and training centrally available. Employees learn step by step, in a clearly structured way, and with access at any time. His goal is to make knowledge usable as a driving force for the success and future of a company.
