Is your management qualified to lead your organization through change periods?

Only uncertainty is certain. Overall, there is a consensus among decision-makers about the relentless nature of external competitive threats and constantly changing market demands. Therefore, not even the most careful preparation can fully predict the consequences. Thus, decision-makers with strong skills to operate under uncertainty are in high demand.

Case Example

Status Quo:

A well-known global car manufacturer announces during an on-going project a new tender for additional groups of managers. This is an uncomfortable situation for us as the Custom Team: On the one hand because an intense and exciting program could entice the client to change the decision in the future and on the other hand as we have continued to improve the program in the meantime. And now the solicitation of a new tender! “What could we further improve?” is now the key question on our minds.

We decide to assess the existing project based on a clear strength/weakness analysis, to identify further potential and to excite the client with new innovation areas, with success:

Key statement by the client during the project development:

“We have realized that we cannot neglect the topic of learning transfer and that we receive the output based on our payment for the transfer. I am pleased that our teams are now coached more intensively during the implementation process. The ideas and interventions of the University of St. Gallen to increase the overall impact during the program have convinced us.”

Enabling Executives

Providing the answers to these and other key questions, as well as numerous research and practical procedures, contribute to the status of the University of St. Gallen as an exciting partner in leadership development for the 21st century.
