Is leadership still necessary in times of New Work, flat hierarchies, and the desire for limitless development? Thorsten Knobbe answers this question with a clear yes and shows ways out of the dilemma. In his book, he summarizes the essence and mechanisms of leadership and demonstrates how rituals, roles, and organizational forms must change in the new working world. As a solution, he defines a new concept of leadership that focuses more on responsibility for a goal or cause than on hierarchical legitimacy. Additionally, organizations learn how to prepare their future leaders for responsibility and create a positive dynamic among all employees.
