Impacts of digitalisation on business and society

Transforming or replacing face-to-face interaction by digital tools requires leadership and culture change. In his keynote Peter Baumgartner questions the promises of digital innovations – by thinking further about its effects and the sort of change which is necessary.

Encouraging Management – the Mythus of Shackleton’s Endurance Expedition

This keynote is about the managerial skills of the legendary polar explorer Shackleton. The time travel into The Eternal Ice discloses an unbelievable story and at the same links up with the 21st century. The sweeping adventure story of the fateful Endurance expedition is a brilliant leadership example.

Shackleton’s leadership skills are woven into the historic context especially referring to core questions about management philosophy and realignment. The keynote draws a bow from the historic arctic sea adventure and Shackleton’s personality to economy and management spiced with elements of adventure fiction and original photos of the expedition.
