    • What is it all about? „The model "Holistic corporate development" supports the navigation of companies (as well as teams or individuals) in turbulent times. The four subject areas include all aspects that should be clear if you want to set up or successfully manage a company. The model therefore provides support in the sense of a Checklist nothing to be overlooked. In addition to completeness, the model helps to create a coherent, consistent business model to develop. There are direct dependencies between the four subject areas, which must interact logically and harmoniously for a promising business model. Changes in one area have an impact on the other three. Balancing the four areas is a key challenge for owners, managers and employees and is the central focus of the Book-rich management meets you. Franz-Ferdinand Kress: "I am deeply convinced that there are relevant basic principles and attitudes for successful corporate management and that it is possible to describe these clearly and comprehensibly. I am also passionate about the idea of productivity and humanity in companies - today more than ever. As I had not found a model that clearly illustrated both aspects and in particular their interaction in a generally understandable way, I developed the "Holistic Corporate Development" model in the mid-2000s. In the 15 years or so since then, it has been further refined, used in numerous organisational development projects, established by an international high-tech engineering company with 10,000 employees as a leading model in management development, taught at the Cooperative State University... - in other words, it has proven to be practical."
