Dr. Claudia Nagel is elected as President Elect of ISPSO. The International Society for the Psychoanalytic Study of Organizations is the only global organization that brings together psychoanalytic and psychodynamic consultants, coaches and academics in the context of organizations. In annual global symposia and regional meetings, research results as well as consulting experiences are shared.
As part of a strategy conference Dr. Nagel was invited to give a lecture at the Fraunhofer Institute in Stuttgart The title of her lecture is: “Behavioral Strategy: Integrating Psychology into Corporate Strategic Management.” In this lecture, Dr Nagel will show to what extent not only rational and planning considerations are incorporated in the strategy development, but also that emotional and “cognitive-irrational” play an important role.
The action artist Guntram Prochaska used his chain saw in November 2018 to design the tree stump of a felled maple due to an illness. The result is the “Lili Queen”, which alludes to the Lili Temple. Unfortunately, the maple had to be felled because of a mycelium so that its stability was no longer guaranteed. The Lili Queen has been watching over the Lili Temple ever since.
European Women on Board is a European initiative with the following goals:
We will develop the European network of “first tier” non-profit organizations by promoting and increasing the number of women in boards. Now there are 20% women of NED listed companies. At the same time, European Union intends to promote a target of 40% in 2020 in roughly 5000 companies.
We have built an international female talent pool to offer opportunities to board-ready women, so they can reach top positions with international visibility and board mandates at European level. Thereby they are able to present the added value they can offer to boards.
We actively participate in the debate of diversity on boards in order to improve the practice of corporate
governance, innovation and more balanced business models. We share the interest of companies and non-profit organizations to innovate, develop and grow.
