The LBG operates nationally and internationally in a highly competitive, performance-oriented environment and addresses current, relevant issues to provide fresh impulses to the world of research. To this end, we bring together a wide variety of disciplines and actors with diverse perspectives and build bridges between basic research and application-oriented research.  Transparency and security are prerequisites for this work – we create the necessary framework for this through forward-looking leadership and professional human resources management. The satisfaction and well-being of those who make this success possible with their performance and commitment are very important to us.

As an interdisciplinary research institution, we are accustomed to viewing people as a whole and to including affected groups of people – this also applies in our dealings with our employees. For this reason, we consciously position ourselves as a family-friendly employer and offer, among other things, the LBG Employee Assistance Program, an interdisciplinary, free and anonymous support service that is also open to family members in the same household.
