Team Spotlight: From Corporate Leadership to Startup Agility - Meet Sonja! 👋 Taking the leap from leading teams in large corporations to joining a small startup isn’t an everyday move - but for Sonja, it was just the kind of challenge she needed. 🧐 With over 10 years of experience in digital advertising and leadership roles at MediaMarkt Österreich and some well known media agencies, Sonja craved more meaning in her work. And this is where exakt health comes in - a place where a tight-knit team, swift decisions, and purposeful work drive every action. 📚 Fun Fact: Sonja graduated specializing in medieval middle high german literature, before swapping books for screens and gradually evolving the digital marketing wizard we know today. 🚲 Whenever Sonja’s not hiking trails (more regularly hills, like the Nußberg) or chasing her energetic 2-year-old (which, these days, is her in most frequent cardio activity 🏃♀️), she’s probably immersed in a good (audio)book or writing. (She even wrote a book at the age of 14, but who’s counting? ✍️) ✈️ On those rare, quieter days, Sonja loves spending quality time with family and friends, travelling and discovering new cultures - now even bringing her toddler along to hike in the jungle or explore beautiful beaches. 🎯 Sonja’s strategic expertise and creative drive are pushing our marketing efforts to new levels every day, helping to shape our vision for digital health at exakt health #TeamSpotlight #Startup #StartupCareers #CareerStory #CareerDevelopment

Personalization is key 🔑 📈 At exakt health, we recognize that no two runners are the same, whose needs are not met by a one-size-fits-all approach. 🏃🏃♀️🏃♂️ Instead, we’re all about personalizing training to the individual runners needs, taking their past injuries or areas of weakness into account. Ultimately, this customization can help runners proactively prevent future risks, all while boosting stability and mobility - resulting in improved performance and fewer injuries in the long run. 🍀 To support this, we’ve launched Focus Areas for our Mobility & Strength plan. This customizable feature allows users to focus their training on areas that need the most attention. 🧠 Runners can now work on their: 🦵 Knees 🧘 Hips 🦶 Ankles 🧍 Or focus on overall Strength & Mobility. This personalized approach empowers runners to train smarter and perform stronger. Whether for recovery or injury prevention, our latest update enables a more focused and personalized approach to running health. 🎥 Check out the video below to see the Focus Areas in action. Update the app or download Exakt Health today to explore this feature! (Link in the first comment ⬇️) #Physiotherapy #HealthTech #AppGrowth #NewFeature #DigitalInnovation
