Case Study

MeetingBooster Success Story Lebenshilfe Kreis Ahrweiler e.V.

Please briefly introduce yourself and your organization:

Lebenshilfe Ahrweiler e.V. is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting and integrating people with disabilities. We have been operating in this field in the region for 40 years and are currently expanding our business in the area of youth welfare. With approximately 140 employees and well over 100 clients, we are a strong social service provider in the Ahrweiler district. In 2021, the Ahr Valley flood disaster hit us hard. 12 of our dearly entrusted people lost their lives. Rebuilding and overcoming the consequences of the flood requires efficient and resource-saving thinking and action.

My name is Hans-Christian Seifert, and I am the Managing Director of the Ahrweiler District Association.

What was the situation like with your meeting organization before MeetingBooster?

Before implementing MeetingBooster, we had difficulty organizing and documenting our meetings efficiently. There were often misunderstandings and delays in completing tasks.

These problems led to increased workload and stress among employees. Furthermore, the quality of our services suffered, which negatively impacted our clients.
