Holistic Management: A Strategic Framework for Industry 5.0

Drawing on over two decades of international executive experience and teaching across Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Africa, Dr. Minja Bolesnikov introduces a pioneering practice-oriented framework for navigating complexity, accelerating innovation, and building resilient organizations.

To succeed in Industry 5.0, organizations must embrace a holistic, purpose-driven model. Holistic Management redefines 21st-century leadership by uniting disciplines often treated in isolation―strategy, corporate culture, digital transformation, personal effectiveness, and sustainability―into a cohesive, actionable model. Through global case studies (Amazon, IKEA, Tesla, Cleveland Clinic, DBS Bank, and more), step-by-step methodologies, and practical tools, this book equips leaders to act with clarity in uncertain times and create lasting impact.

For executives, entrepreneurs, consultants, or educators, it provides the means to build organizations that are not only efficient but also ethical, future-ready, and human-centered.

Minja Bolesnikov is an international professor, consultant, and strategist with over 20 years of executive experience. He is the author of the original Holistic Management model and has taught in over 15 countries across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East, including at Les Roches, SSBM Geneva, and the University of Novi Sad. He has spoken at the United Nations AI Forum, advised government and private-sector leaders, and consulted globally.
