Im Rahmen der zweiten Aktualisierung des Expertenstandards fand von Juni bis Dezember 2017 ein Praxisprojekt zur Arbeit mit dem aktualisierten Expertenstandard sowie zur Anwendung eines Indikatorensets zum Expertenstandard statt. Die Ergebnisse wurden im Rahmen des 20. Netzwerk-Workshops am 02. März 2018 in Berlin vorgestellt und diskutiert.
Sustainability is a growing megatrend in our society entailing an increasing importance of sustainable consumption. Consumers associate sustainable products with ecological and regional production including a high credibility. In order to take advantage of this trend manufacturers of sustainable foods must communicate the sustainability of their products via packaging and displays at the point of sale. The objective of this article is to examine how the design of display elements succeeds in conveying sustainability for a new organic juice. In addition, the perception of individual design elements of sustainable products is determined. To this end, a field study was carried out in a supermarket combining eye-tracking technology with a survey of 32 customers. At the entrance, customers were asked to buy a variety of the newly introduced "Emsländer" organic juice, and then participate in the survey. The results demonstrate that customers with a positive attitude towards sustainable food fixate individual display elements referring to sustainability components for longer and remember product features better. Hence, the positive attitude towards sustainable food results in a higher visual attention at the point of sale. These findings provide recommendations for the design of the display.
A recently published study of high temperature nitridation of iron chromium aluminum alloys (FeCrAl) at 900°C in N2–H2 has redundantly shown the formation of locally confined corrosion pockets reaching several microns into the alloy. These nitrided pockets form underneath chromia islands laterally surrounded by the otherwise protective alumina scale. Chromia renders a nitrogen‐permeable defect under the given conditions and the presence of aluminum in the alloy. In light of these findings on FeCrAl, a focused ion beam–scanning electron microscope tomography study has been undertaken on an equally nitrided FeNiCrAl sample to characterize its nitridation corrosion features chemically and morphologically. The alloy is strengthened by a high number of chromium carbide precipitates, which are also preferential chromia formation sites. Besides the confirmation of the complete encapsulation of the corrosion pocket from the alloy by a closed and dense aluminum nitride rim, very large voids have been found in the said pockets. Furthermore, metallic particles comprising nickel and iron are deposited on top of the outer oxide scale above such void regions.
Dieses Buch zeigt den Zusammenhang von zentralen Aufgabenfeldern einer agilen Unternehmensführung und einer strategisch gesteuerten internen Kommunikation auf. Die Autorinnen entwickeln die aktuelle Diskussion zur Managementfunktion der internen Kommunikation weiter, indem sie diese in das Konzept einer kommunikationszentrierten Unternehmensführung einordnen und zugleich Konzepte und Modelle anhand von Fallstudien veranschaulichen.
Mit der durchgängigen Theorie-Praxis-Reflexion schlägt das Buch eine Brücke zwischen reiner Praktikerliteratur und traditionellen akademischen Lehrbüchern. Es richtet sich gleichermaßen an Führungskräfte aus den Bereichen Unternehmensentwicklung, Recht und Compliance, Human Resources, Controlling und Kommunikationsmanagement sowie an Lehrende und Studierende dieser Fachrichtungen.
Der Inhalt
Einführung in die kommunikationsbasierte Managementlehre
Perspektiven der internen Kommunikation im Kontext agiler Unternehmensführung
Aufgabenfelder der Unternehmensführung und der Beitrag der internen Kommunikation: Ziele und Normen, Strategisches Controlling, Organisation, Innovationsmanagement, Change Management, Netzwerkmanagement, Krisenmanagement, Corporate Governance

Keynes’ Grandchildren and Easterlin’s Paradox. What Is Keeping Us from Reducing Our Working Hours?
(2019)
In 1930 Keynes famously predicted that 100 years later-i.e. in 2030-the “economic problem” would be solved and we would be living in an “age of leisure and of abundance” working only 3 h a day. In the same text, Keynes stated that there are absolute and relative needs (“in the sense that we feel them only if their satisfaction lifts us above, makes us feel superior to, our fellows”), but he thought that relative needs are of minor importance. Richard Easterlin’s work, on the other hand, suggests that relative needs are pervasive and that wellbeing depends much more on one’s relative income than Keynes once thought.
It will be argued in this text that Richard Easterlin’s findings, in spite of proving Keynes off the mark in his understatement of relative needs, strengthens the case for working time reductions: the larger the proportion of goods subject to the relative-income effect, the greater are the benefits of working fewer hours. Perhaps the main explanation for why we are still sticking to the 40-h work-week is that the Easterlin paradox has not been widely understood yet.

Buchbesprechung "Team of Teams" von Stanley McChristal.
Im Rahmen eines Change-Management-Seminars beschäftigten sich Studierende des 2. Semesters im Masterstudiengangs Kommunikation und Management mit dem Buch ‚Team of Teams‘ von Stanley McChristal. Der ehemalige General der US-Army beschreibt darin, wie Führung auch in Extremsituationen gemeistert werden kann.
Zum Abschluss des Seminars gestalteten die Studierenden Poster zu den Schlüsselbegriffen 'Leading like a gardener', 'Team of Teams', 'Empowered Execution', 'Adaptability' und 'Shared Concsiousness', die Stanleys Konzept prägen.
Ziel dieser Handlungskonzepte ist es, dass Organisationen ihre Anpassungsfähigkeit in einer komplexen Welt verbessern können.
