Responsibility

Our responsibility as an agency extends to our clients, our team and society.

For Society

As professional communicators, we share responsibility for public opinion and sentiment in our country. We regularly initiate charitable projects ourselves (e.g., "Journalism and Democracy", Respekt.net), participate in others, and are committed to fighting against injustice and rasism.

In line with our social responsibility, we have supported various projects and organisations serving charitable interests in recent years: from the children's aid organisation SONNE-International to the Harley-Davidson Charity Tour and the Mauthausen Committee Austria to Sharkproject.

Teamwork makes the dream work

In a team, you always bear responsibility for each other. Regular team-building events, opportunities for further training and flexibility to support employees in their individual life situations – these are the hallmarks of our agency. Skills was also the first PR agency in Austria to be certified as a family-friendly company.

Commitment to Sustainability

Not only have we accumulated extensive expertise in environmental and sustainability communication – ecological, economic and social – over many years, which we make available to our clients, but we also live by it ourselves. Under the motto "Green Skills", we have been striving for years to reduce our ecological footprint.
