„Liebe und Arbeiten“ – love and work

Dan Baker, PhD, Senior Consultant and Analyst, Talent Plus

Sigmund Freud was asked what constitutes a successful life, he responded, „Lieben und arbeiten“ – love and work. In business, what constitutes a successful organization? People who love their work & love their organization. While work/life balance has become popular in contemporary literature, it is not easily defi nable given the complex dynamics of humans. An approach that yields a defi nitive & engaging answer is a sense of purpose, health & relationships. Consider the possibilities for any organization that incorporates this idea into its corporate consciousness & culture.

Attaining a competitive position through developing the emotional competencies of human resources

Dr. Mark Baker, TQU Akademie GmbH

The business of business is making a profi t. Success lies in gaining and maintaining a competitive advantage in the global marketplace. However, in the global marketplace, competitors have access to the same supplies, fi nancing, technology and HR. The only area in which a company can attain and maintain a competitive global advantage is in the emotional competencies of its HR. The return a company receives on its investment in developing emotional competencies is the balance between the costs of ineffective performance and the benefi ts of effective, innovative and creative performance.

Riding the Whirlwind – Connecting People and Organisations in a Culture of Innovation

Fons Trompenaars, Director of Trompenaars Hampden – Turner

 

In a recent survey we concluded that organizations believe that a diverse and inclusive workforce leads to increased creativity and innovation, crucial for attaining superior business results and continued success. Diversity enhances creativity and innovation: clients become more diverse and global and so must their partners. Creativity, fl exibility, energy and innovation create tremendous success. These kinds of abilities and skills are not found in homogenous, uniform teams, but in those that are rich in multiple perspectives, skills and experiences. Fons Trompenaars will show how a winning team is made up of individuals who can demonstrate different strengths and, in fact if a team does not embrace these different strengths, then it will not have the important dynamic to move forward and innovate.
