The German banking and finance scene is in a constant state of change. In this book, innovation experts from academia and practice present new strategic, organizational, cultural, and methodological solutions to address this change within the banking industry. These solutions are partly specific to banks and partly adapted from other industries to the banking sector. Leaders and decision-makers in the financial industry who think and act creatively and, above all, with a long-term perspective will find valuable insights here. This volume contains 17 contributions that explore new ideas for strategic alignment, culturally and human resources-oriented topics, as well as technical and methodological approaches in banking. The strategic section of the book includes several topics specifically focused on China, as China plays a significant role in many areas.
