Values lead further: what ESG has to do with leadership
Lena Gotzler | Head of Department | msg for banking ag

ESG – what is behind the term, and why is it relevant for managers? We explore what ESG has to do with modern leadership and why it is no longer a specialised topic, but a common task for all those who bear responsibility and shape the future.

Change architecture at Volksbank Darmstadt Mainz

Change is no longer the exception to day-to-day business, but the new normal. The example of Volksbank Darmstadt Mainz shows how banks can adapt to this and organise change. In recent years, the bank has developed structured approaches to enable, support and embed change for its 1,600 employees.

Use this platform to share knowledge, learn from each other and take a valuable look at the bigger picture.

Leadership MeetUp: Tool Edition

Making motivation visible: People at the heart of transformation

Transformations, such as mergers or the introduction of AI, are not achieved through good plans alone, but through the motivation of the people who carry them out.

In this special edition of the Leadership MeetUp ‘Red and blue make purple’, we join forces with Monday Rocks to show how modern leadership and digital tools make motivation visible. This allows friction to be identified early on, risks to be minimised and the impact of change to be accelerated – across teams, departments and locations.
