GAMOMAT Exclusive Interview
which everything else is spawned. This is why company welfare and motivation has always been a top priority for us. Our working environment sees everyone functions at eye level and there are flat hierarchies.
At GAMOMAT we are a value-oriented company, so we place huge importance on people and our ability to empower them. We recognise that managerial behavior plays a critical role in bringing a team together and fostering employee engagement, satisfaction and productivity. In our company, leadership is a particular success factor because we have adopted a hybrid working model where face-to-face meetings are less frequent.
The recruitment strategy is driven by a candidate’s social skills as this is best for making an inclusive team environment. The energy and skill set, both intellectually and emotionally, of the GAMOMAT team is the strongest asset in continuing the course of success. Our continued endeavors in this area will always remain a key objective and again, it’s great to see the success of our efforts being highlighted with awards.
Can you please tell us more about the Gaming for the Climate initiative?
Dr. Alexandra Krone - GAMOMAT has a very clear commitment to Social Responsibility, which is derived from our socially oriented, value-driven corporate culture. Social and ecological causes are the pillars of our work. The latter saw the launch of our “Gaming for the Climate” initiative in 2021 to financially support important environmental activities.
We firmly believe that together we can successfully limit the effects of climate change. GAMOMAT is donating a part of its own revenue from actually two selected games to protect the climate, and the donation doesn’t affect the players’
RTP and possible winnings.
The initiative started in December 2021 with the ´Book of Oasis’ game that is an underwater quest for treasure. This inspired us to join forces with marine protection charity, Healthy Seas. Money raised from the game helps Healthy Seas’ mission to protect marine life by targeting abandoned ghost nets, plastic removal, collaborative projects with local fishing industries and educational workshops.
In November 2022, we added the slot game Monkey Mania to support BOS Deutschland e.V, who work tirelessly to protect the Mawas forest in Borneo, where there is an essential orangutan population. We believe that only through our actions can we truly make a difference and benefit our community.
You have launched in 2020 the Hybrid work model in your Company. Can you please tell us more about the concept and how the employees are working with you?
We introduced hybrid working in 2020 following an evaluation led by an external professional team. All departments and stakeholders were involved in the process and there was a common template in order to make it crystal clear to everyone what changes could be introduced. We were certain we wanted to keep our original office as we’re proud of our beginnings, but renovations to the space were made following significant investment.
The results have been fantastic. One element that we were particularly pleased with was the Meeting areas and cultural ‘filling station’ - a play on petrol station - where ideas can be shared amongst each other. Employees are free to choose their workplace whenever they want, whether that be at home or anywhere within the renovated office.
