Hello:

In a recent interview with the German newspaper Osthessen|News, together with Prof. Dr. Frank Unger, I discuss why disruptive change is not only a matter of strategy, but above all a leadership challenge — and why emotional competence, self-leadership, and clarity in shaping the future are among the key leadership qualities today.

In this conversation we discuss:

• How leadership provides orientation in times of uncertainty

• Why emotional intelligence is a decisive success factor

• How leaders can effectively guide themselves and their teams through processes of change
