What an honor to see TUI's Chief Sustainability Officer Thomas Ellerbeck among the 100 most influential and distinguished CSO’s in Europe. Thomas is a Member of TUI‘s Group Executive Committee, overseeing Governmental Affairs & Public Policy, Communications/PR, TUI‘s Foundations and Sustainability. Among the awarded European Managers are other reputable Germany-based multinational companies, including: Petra Wicklandt, PhD (Merck), Renata Jungo Brüngger (Mercedes-Benz Group AG), Dr. Sebastian Rudolph (Volkswagen Group/Porsche AG), Sophia Leonora Mendelsohn (SAP) as well as Silke Jolowicz (Munich Re) - but also other international colleagues like Bérangère Ruchat (Richemont), Michael Baldinger (UBS Group), Christoph Nabholz (Swiss Re) and Celine Herweijer (HSBC). It is clear that sustainability is a topic that is equally important across all industries. Congratulations to all those who will be awarded during the World Economic Forum in Davos in January 2025. An inspiring initiative by futur/io Institute and Harald Neidhardt. Most important to TUI’s sustainability strategy is the holistic approach encompassing ecological, social, and economic sustainability. The SBTi initiatives include the business sectors of Airlines, Hotels & Resorts, and Cruises with our three cruise lines in Germany and the UK. Another big part of our strategy in the areas of education and the development of destinations is the TUI Care Foundation, with which we operate in around 30 countries. Another notable initiative is The Rhodes Co-Lab. Together with the government of the Southern Aegean and the Government of Greece, TUI aims to develop the first holistic, sustainable destination with all local partners. The goal is to expand the results and experiences from Rhodes to other destinations, primarily testing and then implementing the scalability of measures.

✨ It's a bit of a tradition – The festive season video from the TUI management 🎬 👩🍳 👨🍳 Recently, our Group Executive Committee (GEC) came together for a unique Christmas cooking class in Warsaw. 🇵🇱 As they couldn’t cook for all our colleagues – as they would have loved to do – the team did it exemplary for some of our Polish colleagues. They prepared a traditional Polish meal, transforming the kitchen into a place of laughter, teamwork, and mutual appreciation. Cooking truly brings people together, and the warmth of the evening went beyond the dishes they created. We're delighted to share the highlights from the evening in this video. ⬇️ Thank you. Happy Holidays from the GEC  Sebastian Ebel, Mathias Kiep, Sybille Reiß, Peter Krueger, David Schelp, Marco Ciomperlik, Thomas Ellerbeck, Pieter Jordaan, Florian Lenser, Peter Ulwahn PS: Would you also like to send greetings to our TUI colleagues?
