An der Freiheit des anderen kommt keiner vorbei

Title: There Is No Bypassing the Freedom of the Other No other German author has shaped management thinking during the last 20 years as profoundly as Reinhard K. Sprenger. His ideas on topics such as freedom, self-responsibility, trust and the correct approach to motivation continue to be highly topical. This anniversary volume commemorating his 60th birthday compiles excerpts from his most important works and places them in a new, cohesive context. Sprenger's central concept is freedom. It is the unifying factor because we, as human beings, are endowed with freedom-not only in the workplace as employees, entrepreneurs, or managers, but in all other aspects of life as well. This book is an invitation for everyone who is eager to learn more about Reinhard Sprenger, since it represents an inspiring new compilation of his central thoughts. Reinhard K. Sprenger, "Germany's number one management author" (Handelsblatt), knows better than anyone else what really matters in leadership. The author provides the first comprehensive description of this enormously complex subject. It contains numerous concrete suggestions pertaining to everyday leadership practice and the five core topics: organizing collaboration, settling conflicts, ensuring future viability, lowering transaction costs and leading employees.
