New kind of world

The individual at the centre of a value-oriented leadership culture

Our economic system and our society are going through a period of upheaval. Visions, values, goals and strategies are on a test bench. More than ever everyone of us is required to be aware of one’s own responsibility and proof one’s ability to cooperate. In his book „A new form of our world (“Die Welt der neuen Art“), Lothar Mayrhofer highlights the potential of a human-oriented management culture.

The “new kind of world” places the individual in the centre. The shift to the “new kind of world” originates with the individual. It challenges the whole human being on every level of his or her material, energetic, mental, psychological, and spiritual reality.
Each of us bears the responsibility for leadership in our own lives. We cannot delegate this. We alone can decide who and what we are and want to be. Only from a point of awareness of our own strengths and weaknesses, our talents and abilities, grounded in the foundation of our values, can we truly lead our lives and contribute to the lives of others. Can we be our authentic selves and build trust by acting authentically. On equal footing, each person in his or her place – if you will, if you can believe it – following a grand plan, proving oneself worthy of being human.
The interconnectedness and interdependence of mankind calls for a conscious creation of the quality of our relationships, of mankind’s most powerful “energy dynamo”. Companies, organisations, and families are the breeding grounds and driving forces behind the realisation of a “new kind of world”. These are the places of energy and strength where we lead, inspire, support, and reinvent each other from within.
