Chief Operating & Compliance Officer

Annette Höher-Bäuerle

I lead and am guided by the following principles:

Leading by example and with a purpose | Developing and trusting your people | Putting your customers first | Understanding the bigger picture

In my career I have led large operational and strategic teams. A senior leadership role is very divers and means constant change and development, but also passion about what you do. My passion lies with cultural development & change, making teams & talents visible and great customer experiences which add value to both, customers and the organisation itself.

I have been the first woman in Germany with a CCXP certification and have mentored female talents - I follow the idea that growth and improvement can only be achieved by continuously challenging oneself and others.
