INTERCONNECTED
A CONCEPT FOR THE FUTURE
INTERCONNECTED FOR FUTURE
With our concept of Interconnected we create a framework for all those people who want and need to prepare for the future. Above all, these are executives, teams and organizations who are confronted with completely new approaches and laws in the world of work – and who courageously want to face up to the challenge of radical changes in the future with humanity and responsible (self-) leadership.
Interconnected Leadership is at the same time a coaching approach with which we specifically strengthen and accompany the leaders and teams of tomorrow.
WHY WE NEED INTERCONNECTED LEADERSHIP & COMMUNICATION
We are at the beginning of a new era. Our working world is characterized by digitization, new work and new leadership. But what does that mean for our economy, for our work and above all, for us as human beings?
The old world as we know it and our understanding of work and performing is increasingly being replaced by new concepts. The rules of the old economy have long been called into question. Fresh winds are blowing through the organizations and new work concepts are omnipresent.
But not only organizations have to reposition themselves. We all, each and every one of us, need to create an awareness that we need to face the future with a different mindset to persist the challenges of digitization.

In addition, the growing globalization is making our world more and more complex and in the work world we are confronted with a diversity that has never existed like this before: different cultures, mentalities, disciplines, views, societies, gender or generations encounter and need to be connected.
This is a challenge especially for leaders and teams. In these times, more than ever, we need bridge builders capable of combining the old with the new, of providing security in times of uncertainty and, above all, of dealing with all kinds of diversity.

LEADERSHIP & COMMUNICATION?
Relationships are the basis of our human life and live above all with good communication. Our Interconnected Communication approach focuses on relationship and value-oriented communication to build the way to the future.
The principles of future orientated leadership also apply to Interconnected.
But they are not sufficient enough.
In the future, we need real pioneers who see themselves as interconnected leaders and communicators for a new era.
So what does Interconnected represent?

Personality
development
Interconnected leaders are continuously and willingly working on themselves. They are ready to move out of their comfort zone, to reflect and critically question their integrity. Their goal is to find to themselves, in order to lead with a conscious authenticity.
Real connection instead of random networking
In the global community, you are infinitely networked and yet very little connecd. Interconnected leaders put high importance to a real connection, which does not only take place externally, but also can be felt from the inside.
It is shown especially in teams that are characterized by trust, genuine cooperation, support and encouragement. This connection applies to the interconnected leaders also on the inner level: They are connected with themselves and confronting internal and ethical questions.
Passion
for diversity
Whether it’s with different gender, mentalities, cultures, disciplines, languages, professions, generations, views or societies: Interconnected Leadership means to tackle that spectrum of the full range of diversity with a flexible and tolerant attitude and love just that diversity. This creates interconnected intelligence enabling the creativity that is needed for the future.
The performance thinking of earlier generations is increasingly being replaced by potential development and talent orientation. Interconnected leaders have an honest interest in figuring out where the potentials and talents are within teams and organizations and use them systematically.
To enable creativity and innovation, old patterns have to be broken up and borders must be crossed. Interconnected leaders have the courage to move with an unbiased attitude and with pioneering spirit to a completely new terrain. This also means that they have to deal with excessive demands, can provide security where there is no security and will build bridges between different worlds.
Reflection
and tranquility
It’s no longer about “higher, faster, further” – it’s about taking time for the essentials. Interconnected leaders also must be able to put pause on the clock to ask questions. They are interested in the core meaning of things, in reflecting them and allowing solutions to evolve.
Communication Intelligence
Nothing beats real dialogue. Therefore, good, attentive, transparent, honest and direct communication is the measure of all things for interconnected leaders, teams and organizations.
Emotionality
In times where artificial intelligence will soon dominate everything, we need a strong counterpoint: we need leaders, who manage with their hearts. Interconnected leaders have the courage to show themselves with their emotionality and lead in an empathetic, human, and perceptive way. Because in the future, people will no longer work for organizations, but for connecting leaders and teams.

Responsible attitude
We can no longer afford to make short term decisions these days. Interconnected Leadership therefore also means not just to think about tomorrow, but to act responsibly towards the future.
Plans are important for implementation, as is initiative. In addition, openness and willingness to make changes to the plan if necessary are required at all times. The interconnected leader is able to implement things in a targeted manner while remaining flexible. He has the ability to try things out and at the same time constantly adapt the course to the weather conditions. Going forward boldly, assessing the opportunities and risks correctly, pausing when in doubt and breaking off if necessary are essential aspects of flexibility. It is important not to make lonely decisions, but ideally to ask and involve the whole team for their opinion. This leads to more clarity, possible solutions, acceptance and equality.
