The photographer can not get it. To the bell. So he has to get out of the warm car, out into the fresh snow just to press the bell at the Thermotec factory gate. Sebastian Heidrich laughs heartily when we tell him about it a few minutes later. "These are necessary savings in a company that wants to conquer the world. We only have one bell for the truck drivers. They are important to us. And they just sit higher." You do not recognize that the 36-year-old board member of Thermotec AG is just coming back from the G20 summit in China. More specifically, from the meeting of G20-YEA, derived from young entrepreneur alliance. "A combination of young entrepreneurs from numerous countries," explains Heidrich, "which meets annually to formulate the needs of the next generation of young economists and to hand over the head of states of the world. Because of that, you could easily get stuck up snooty. Or just as self-confident as before.
He brought valuable contacts. He will need it if he wants to roll up the Chinese market with his electric heaters. And he wants that. "Until the Chinese copy us. Then we have to realign the strategy." This is not the way someone speaks who is afraid of the future. "Our product is currently up to date and perfectly marketable online because it is so easy. Indispensable for worldwide sales without expensive dealer network. Plug and play is the name of it, plug it into the socket and start it. Without cumbersome structure, special technical understanding or on-site support. So far, Heidrich has had 10,000 radiators built each year in Arnsdorf near Görlitz. He is currently adjusting production to 50,000 units. And he thinks even further. "The storage media are getting better. Currently we have a power overproduction in many countries, all are looking for buyers. The two facts together call for a new heating generation. We will develop them here. "
In order to be able to implement his ideas, he needs passionate employees, "strictly conservative trained and totally modern thinking". "Is that even possible?" asks the father of two himself and laughs. "We have to make better but simpler products at the same time. My phone has 800 features that I do not use and do not understand. Our heating should be different." Things are different at Thermotec. The punching bag, for example, hanging in front of a world map in the hallway. "The hip advertising agencies have soccer tables for compensation. We need something more tangible." Only if he saw a picture of himself on the punching bag one morning, then he would have to think about what went wrong, says Heidrich. Somehow different from the usual lounges is the cool lounge, which is available to all employees during breaks. Sebastian Heidrich has located them behind the factory buildings on an idyllic bathing pond. Lately, in good weather he holds weekly meetings there.
The boss is about to let go. He used to want to know everything, controlled a lot and would have liked to do everything he was not 100% satisfied with. Now he has even distanced from the company, moved to Leipzig for private reasons, no longer comes to the company every day. And he trusts his people a lot more. "It pays off, they are incredibly pure and they want to prove that it works." To continue on his way, he needs employees who, in addition to all theoretical knowledge, "know how steel smells" and who can organize themselves. So that he can take care of the strategy for the future even more. Because he firmly believes in that.
