Synopsis

Organizations are the business world's central actors, employing multiple people who pursue collective goals while linked to an external environment.

The text is filled with contributions by alumni of the ESB Business School at Reutlingen University. Part I discusses contemporary organizational forms and properties, including team aspects. Part II provides a detailed overview of key themes in modern leadership and coaching, as well as organizational intervention.
