Results of the Generation Thinking Study

"Our youth is intolerable, irresponsible, and appalling to behold." This is how Socrates complained about youth more than 300 years before Christ. Even today, a lack of understanding of the younger generation leads to anger. But in view of the shortage of skilled workers, it is essential for companies today to know what makes Generation Z tick. Rüdiger Maas clarifies the situation with his well-founded portrait of the so-called Zs, who live, think and work very differently than all previous generations. His pointed tips not only help to find the right junior staff, but also to retain them.

In her book, Annika Schach presents a wide variety of text types - from the classic press release to corporate websites and podcasts to Facebook posts and short tweets.

The "Art of Hosting" is the art of leading people to new solutions through good conversations. Behind it is a worldwide, self-organized network that combines various creativity techniques and meeting designs into an informal concept. Ilse M. Pogatschnigg explains the way AoH facilitators work and think with palpable enthusiasm. When she talks about bumblebees, teddy bears and the law of two feet, you might be itching to make use of the latter. However, the techniques described are quite helpful in themselves.
