Learning outcomes of the courses/module

The students know and understand the different approaches within strategic personnel management such as recruiting, personnel development and onboarding. Building on this, methods and approaches of holistic leadership understood as a combination of management and leadership are discussed and relevant leadership tasks are developed theoretically and practically.
In particular, students are enabled to constructively master social conflict situations or other difficult conversational situations. They can fall back on a repertoire of techniques (moderation, reflection, constellation, etc.)
