Three Inspiring Stories on New Leadership
What we can learn from the sugar consumption of Gandhi, from Netflix’s surprising resemblance to a nuclear submarine, and from the frightening team dynamics of super chickens about new leadership.
The X‑Conference on “Corporate Digital Responsibility and Digital Ethics” took place on October 30, 2020. My keynote, which is now also available as video, revolved — as expected — around the Manifesto for human(e) leadership and specifically around the question what (corporate) digital responsibility has to do with modern leadership. My core thesis: Concepts like digital ethics, compliance or self-organization in agile organizations require all discipline beyond obedience. They cannot simply be imposed, but are based on the personal responsibility of the employees. In this talk, I will approach the question of how this personal responsibility can be activated in a sustainable way with these three inspirational stories about role models, responsibility and trust.
Be the change that you wish to see in the world.
