“Rethink Work” is an excit­ing pod­cast from Han­dels­blatt that deals with con­tem­po­rary work cul­ture and its con­stant devel­op­ment. I was hap­py to accept the invi­ta­tion of the two deputy edi­tors-in-chief Kirsten Ludowig and Char­lotte Haunhorst to talk to them about empa­thy — a top­ic that is very close to my heart. Togeth­er we dis­cussed ques­tions like:

• Are peo­ple born empathic?
• Can we learn empa­thy and also unlearn it?
• How should man­agers deal with feel­ings in every­day pro­fes­sion­al life?
• And in gen­er­al, what role do feel­ings play in the new work­ing life? Now in hybrid times?

KressPro, the mag­a­zine for exec­u­tives in the media, presents the 25 most impor­tant con­sul­tants for media hous­es. How do you make it onto this exclu­sive list? The cri­te­ria include: Rec­om­men­da­tions from pub­lish­ers, man­ag­ing direc­tors and deci­sion­mak­ers in Ger­many, Aus­tria and Switzer­land; atten­tion through per­for­mances, lec­tures and publications.

We seem to have been con­vinc­ing in all criteria.

And we are pleased to be among the 25 most impor­tant con­sul­tants for media hous­es — as the only ones with a focus on trans­for­ma­tion.​“In my work as a con­sul­tant and coach, trans­for­ma­tion — and the ques­tion of how to man­age it empath­i­cal­ly, coura­geous­ly and in an entre­pre­neur­ial man­ner — is the key theme.

To date, we have accom­pa­nied over 25,000 sat­is­fied cus­tomers in more than 2,000 suc­cess­ful train­ings and con­fer­ences. Ana­logue and dig­i­tal. We enjoy the trust of start-ups as well as renowned and inter­na­tion­al­ly active companies.
