Change of leadership at Vienna North: Piskernik takes over creative management!

Wien, Österreich - The Wien Nord Service Plan agency is faced with a significant change in creative management. From July 1, 2025, Matthias Piskernik will take over the management of the creative department and thus follows Christian Hellinger, who is leaving the agency after around 13 years. Piscernic is a long -time employee of the company; He was back in a team from 2008 to 2011 and since 2021, most recently as a creative director. In his new role, he expressed a positive statement about the agency and the upcoming challenges.

Sebastian Bayer, CEO of the House of Communication Vienna, praised Christian Hellinger and emphasized that pissing was an excellent choice as a successor. This could not only bring a fresh perspective to the company, but also lay the basis for future creative successes.

New Management Board

With the change of management, the management board is also expanded and restructured. The new board consists of:

• Marion Janda (advisory manager)
• Stefan Kopinits (Head of Art)
• Matthias Piskernik (creative managing director)
• Philipp Dohnal (Client Service Director, from April 2025)

This new structure should enable faster decision making and stabilize the grown corporate culture. With the clear direction of setting up the organization resilient and future -oriented, the first course is set.

meaning of leadership changes

leadership changes can also bring uncertainties. An investigation by Culture AMP on the effects of leadership changes to the commitment of more than 1.7 million employees worldwide has shown that such changes often go hand in hand with a decline in employee engagement and a loss of trust. In the EMEA room there are significant declines in various areas such as a feeling of teams and clarity about success criteria.

A change at the top of the company can cause a loss of up to 9 percent, which can have negative consequences, especially for employees on the lower level. The challenges that result from these changes require executives to introduce proactive measures to promote commitment and stability in order to minimize possible mood swings and fluctuation.

How Vienna Nord Service Plan will master the upcoming challenges remains to be seen. However, the appointment of Matthias Piskernik is a promising step into a new era for the agency.
