Leadership is changing – new approaches are needed, especially for retaining talent over the long term and successfully managing agile and remote teams. Human-centered leadership provides a helpful skill set for this. It puts the person at the forefront and requires a high level of empathy, motivation, coaching, and community spirit from the leaders in question. At this presentation, you will learn about the leadership experiences of two senior leaders – in their businesses, in their families, in sports, and in society. Both combine not only a passion for basketball, but also for human-centered leadership. They talk about this regularly in their podcast “With People. For People” – and this year they will also be live at MHPFESTIVAL. You can look forward to personal and well-founded leadership insights.

In times of increasing digitalization and economic dynamics, industrial companies are challenged more than ever to increase their efficiency and productivity. This is the only way they can remain competitive in the future. All of this is forcing them to move away from traditional processes and systems - and to use powerful digital technologies. Pfeiffer Vacuum and Busch Vacuum, two leading German mechanical engineering companies that we at MHP are currently supporting as their implementation partner, are also facing these fundamental changes and challenges of digital transformation. The basis for their new common-IT approach is S/4HANA from SAP, a cross-industry established and a state-of-the-art system for all business processes. You can look forward to valuable insights on how to succeed in the digitalization journey in a heterogeneous, volatile, and complex business environment - one in which diverse, globally distributed organizations, and stand-alone companies must come together to achieve long-term success. This keynote lecture will provide you with insightful project experiences from our consulting practice. Digital Transformation Stage M | 02:00 - 02:20 pm | Impulse Session
