Selbsteinschätzung für Führungsteams als Diagnose Dr. Clemens Schmoll 1

The following slides have been designed to give you the opportunity to consider some questions regarding your current managerial situation. Answering the questions will allow you to make a self assessment in the relevant areas of top- management. The questions are only a guideline to help you to realize the hot topics in your case and they don`t need to be answered in great detail or depth. We would, however, like to ask you to reflect a little in advance. Please make some notes on the slides about your findings so that we can discuss them during our meeting Dr. Clemens Schmoll 2
