The new world of work, with… mandatory home offices and virtual exchanges, in short so-called “smart working,” is challenging classical approaches to leadership: how are the principles of leadership and command changing?
How can leadership be democratized? And will companies and employees have to reinvent themselves? Both managers and employees are challenged to find new concepts to develop those companies whose human resources they embody
Attendees can expect exciting presentations, informative discussions, and interesting networking opportunities.

The speakers will examine the topic from different angles. After a welcome by Economy Minister Sabine Monauni, top manager Christoph Franz will explain why modern business leaders should place greater emphasis on conveying a sense of purpose and inspiring employees.

In his recently published book “Die digitale Pille” (“The Digital Pill”), as co-author Christoph Franz examined how digitization offers many new opportunities, using the evolution of healthcare systems as an example.

After a networking break, Hannes Gassert will explain how companies are run according to the concept of holocracy. He is a co-founder and member of the management board of the Swiss digital agency Liip.
