What this book can do for you: You support certified climate protection projects, you quickly receive compact information and checklists from experts (overview in the table of contents) as well as advice that has been tried and tested in practice and that leads step by step to success, also thanks to add-on. Because suddenly occurring changes can really mess up our lives. But as Winston Churchill said, “Never waste a good crisis”. And in fact, the main thing is to assess the changes positively as a challenge, even if that is difficult at first. It is crucial to have enough resilience and flexibility to deal with such a new situation quickly and correctly. And it requires the ability to quickly learn from a situation what can be done better in the future.
In addition, our unique publishing concept offers you many best practice tips and examples from successful managers, entrepreneurs and other exciting personalities.

Dr. Monika Wulf-Mathies worked in the Chancellery, was ÖTV chairman, in the European Commission and adviser to Gerhard Schröder. She has been with DHL since 2001. In the interview she reported on her recipe for success.
After studying history, German philology and economics and earning her doctorate in Hamburg in 1968, Wulf-Mathies was initially an assistant to the Federal Ministry of Economics, then to the Federal Chancellery, including head of the Social and Social Policy Unit. In 1976 she was elected to the board of the ÖTV trade union, in 1982 she became chairperson. From 1994 to 1999 she was a member of the European Commission, after that she was European Policy Advisor to Chancellor Gerhard Schröder until 2000. She has been with Deutsche Post DHL since 2001, initially as head of the central “Politics and Sustainability” division, and since 2009 as a consultant to the board. How did you manage to be so successful as a woman and humanities scholar?
I don't think you can say that because I am a humanities scholar, I was successful. But in principle, each course provides key and basic skills that enable you to structure facts, systematically develop new topics and apply your knowledge in different areas. Humanities scholars also develop important skills, from language to culture, society and life in general, to good writing and sensitivity to “soft skills” that are useful for many activities.
In addition to the abovementioned skills, you need additional qualities such as commitment and diligence, motivation, pleasure in work, determination and perseverance, willingness to take risks, a healthy self-confidence, assertiveness and decision-making, and, last but not least, luck!
Yes and no. Of course, there are still many prejudices against women in leadership positions. But if you are good and have the guts to do it, you are more visible than a man - and that can help important people become aware of you. Women often have too much self-doubt if they want to make a career, although they are mostly more qualified than male applicants. A healthy self-confidence is therefore absolutely necessary for the career.
