Education is one of the most important things in our society. Its efficiency has a direct impact on welfare and wellbeing of our society. As education professionals we are in the business of interacting with people. The way how we lead, enable and manage supervising bodies, collaborators and ourselves are key aspects of successful schools. That's why I focus my work on these areas.
In 2019, my short introduction on leadership in higher education was published. It deals with key issues as strategy development, management of conflicts, communication and other topics.
This book is only available in German language.
