What does it mean to have a voice? Most of us take the ability to speak for granted. Every year, thousands of people across the world undergo a total laryngectomy. A procedure that removes your larynx – your voice box. Therefore, you lose the ability to speak. Losing your voice over night can be overwhelming, distressing and frustrating. But there are ways to regain your speech. In the Coloplast family, we are proud to produce Atos Medical’s voice prostheses helping people all over the world to speak. In this video, Atos asked some of our users to express what it means for them to reclaim their voice. We would like to share it, because this is what inspires us to keep improving, to keep innovating and to keep reaching out to help even more people across the globe. #AtosMedical #Laryngectomy #SpeechTherapy

“Capital allocation should be a dynamic process.”   Our Executive Vice President & CFO Anders Lonning Skovgaard was recently interviewed by Deloitte on the topic of ‘capital allocation’. The interview was conducted as part of Deloitte’s 2024 CFO Survey, which will be available on 7 May.   “Effective capital allocation requires many things, but one of them is knowledgeable people who know each other and how to work together. I think that’s one of our strengths across the company. We trust each other, we have a great collaboration, and we know our market very well,” says Anders in the interview where he shares his thoughts on how Coloplast effectively allocates capital and resources for investments and acquisitions.   You can read the full article via this link: https://lnkd.in/epyFDP-b #Coloplast #MakingLifeEasier

In honour of International Women’s Day, Coloplast would like to recognise all of the #WomenWhoMakeADifference at Coloplast past and present, every day of the year. We choose to celebrate IWD to recognise women’s contributions, the progress we have made, and the work that is still yet to come.   We have empowered our local offices to create their own IWD celebrations in line with their local cultures, histories, and needs to #InspireInclusion. We are happy to see such a diversity in the way our colleagues recognise IWD and each other, for example:   In Costa Rica, our colleagues arranged an inspirational coffee talk about love, empowerment, and life as an ostomate in our factory. In Denmark, our employees have set up a Wall of Recognition, where colleagues are encouraged to show appreciation to our Coloplast hashtag #WomenWhoMakeADifference, as well as allies, advocates, promoters, supports, and champions of women in our workplace. In the US, there have been multiple events celebrating Women’s history month: from creating a personal & professional vision statement to communicating with confidence to allyship, inspiration, and empowerment. In Argentina, our colleagues have had honest conversations about women, bias, and how to challenge ourselves to do differently in professional life. Finally, in China a management panel discussion was facilitated about women’s career development, while a flower arrangement event was arranged with the labour union.   Today's celebration is a tribute to the phenomenal women who play a pivotal role in Coloplast's success. Join us in acknowledging their contributions and in the ongoing journey toward greater diversity and inclusion!   #WomenWhoMakeADifference #InspireInclusion #IWD2024 #Coloplast
