Prof. Dr. Michael Kurwan

Leadership 2.0 in Prozessen der nachhaltigen Veränderung

In a career that has seen him face coup leaders in his native Ivory Coast and lead some of the most prestigious Western financial institutions, Tidjane Thiam has blazed a trail through African and European politics and business.In a career that has seen him face coup leaders in his native Ivory Coast and lead some of the most prestigious Western financial institutions, Tidjane Thiam has blazed a trail through African and European politics and business.After a childhood in tumultuous west and north Africa, Thiam broke barriers in the elitist world of French higher education, becoming one of the first black consultants at McKinsey and Company before entering the Ivorian government. After a coup forced him into exile, he joined the world of finance, where his rise saw him named as CEO of Prudential in London and Credit Suisse in Zurich. Along the way, he was trained and supported by many both in the public and private sector who made his many achievements as a leader possible. However, his rise to prominence as the only African, black and Muslim boss of large Western corporations was also accompanied with disproportionate public and media scrutiny, as well as racism and xenophobia.A blend of autobiography, business, politics, and personal philosophy, his book offers a unique vantage point on corporate and political life in Africa, Europe, the United States and Asia. In a story that spans from his father's politically motivated imprisonment to the business principles that took Thiam to the top of global finance, he shares a personal and professional story that is equal parts inspirational and aspirational.

A Memoir

Without Prejudice

Routledge Studies in Management, Organizations and Society

Navigating Organizational Complexity explores the challenges of contemporary management in an era defined by unpredictability, complexity, and environmental volatility. Drawing on Nassim Taleb's metaphor of the "black swan," the book expands this concept to include a typology of transformative events: Black Swans (negative and unexpected), White Swans (positive and unexpected), Grey Swans (known but neglected threats), and Green Swans (long-term environmental megatrends). Through interdisciplinary analysis, it examines how organizations can build resilience, adapt to uncertainty, and thrive in the face of disruption. It offers practical tools and frameworks for strategic foresight, leadership, and risk management, making it an essential resource for navigating the complexities of the modern business environment. Key features include an innovative approach to the "black swan" metaphor, integrating concepts such as antifragility, organizational resilience, and sustainability. The book combines insights from management, sociology, psychology, and economics, with references to global crises, climate change, and digitization. Readers will benefit from practical strategies for fostering adaptability, learning cultures, and visionary leadership, supported by rich academic literature and real-world examples. It is ideal for academics, researchers, and advanced students in management, organizational studies, and sustainability, as well as business leaders seeking actionable insights to future-proof their organizations.

How to Move What You're Tripping Over and Lead with H.E.A.R.T

WHO MUST YOU BECOME TO LEAD OTHERS? The Rubicon Leader is not a book about becoming better at leadership. It is a book about becoming someone capable of leading.Rooted in the timeless truth that every great leader must cross a point of no return, this book challenges the promise of quick tips and surface-level techniques. Instead, it begins where leadership is forged: with identity.Drawing on history's most enduring leaders, from Caesar and Cleopatra to Confucius and Lincoln, and grounding their lessons in modern neuroscience and psychology, Vahab Hasiri lays out a practical path through three irreversible transformations.First comes the Inner Revolution, the demolition and reconstruction of the self. Then the Outer Influence, where trust, presence, and persuasion replace authority. Finally, the Eternal Legacy, where leaders build cultures, systems, and people that thrive long after they are gone.Written with the clarity of a global operator who has led through growth and uncertainty, The Rubicon Leader offers philosophical depth and structured frameworks for real change.This is not a book to skim or consume passively. It is a blueprint for those capable of more and willing to do the work required to cross the river and never return the same.START BUILDING INFLUENCE THAT OUTLASTS YOU.

Master Your Inner Revolution and Create a Legacy That Multiplies

The Rubicon Leader

The Right Call is for leaders who recognise that ethics is not an afterthought but the architecture of every meaningful decision. As choices become embedded in systems, policies and technologies, the quality of an organisation's ethical reasoning shapes outcomes long before a dilemma becomes visible. This book shows how to strengthen that capability.It begins by translating the four major ethical traditions into decision tools leaders can use in real time. Virtue, duty, consequences and care become practical ways of diagnosing tensions, clarifying what is at stake and understanding how values guide judgement under pressure. The book then examines the organisational infrastructure of decision-making, showing how language, power and informal norms shape what people call the right thing to do. Through diagnostic templates and research-based insights, readers learn to surface assumptions, identify cultural blind spots and create conditions where integrity can scale. The INTEGRITI(TM) model, a disciplined nine-step approach to leading values-based conversations, provides a clear method for turning intent into action, navigating stakeholder tensions and embedding integrity into everyday practice.This is a book for anyone responsible for choices that carry consequences.

A Leader’s Guide to Ethical Decision-Making in Practice

The Right Call

This book offers a comprehensive analysis of fake leadership&nbsp;within Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), revealing its&nbsp;detrimental&nbsp;impact on&nbsp;organization,&nbsp;job performance and brand commitment among employees. It shows the role of intra-organizational trust, job-related attitudes, and the unique vulnerabilities of HEIs in those processes.&nbsp;Crucially,&nbsp;the book also outlines defensive strategies, which can mitigate these negative effects, emphasizing the importance of transparency, ethical conduct, and collective action within HEIs.
Drawing on empirical research involving&nbsp;over 500 employees of European HEIs, the authors identify specific organizational and individual strategies, which have the potential to combat and mitigate organizational destruction caused by fake leadership within HEIs.&nbsp;
It is an essential resource for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers committed to safeguarding the future of higher education.

Investigating Destructive Leadership Styles and their Impact in HE Institutions

Fake Leadership in Higher Education

The Trust Architect is a leadership doctrine for a world where technology moves faster than human judgment, and trust has become the most fragile-and most valuable-currency. In an era shaped by cyber risk, artificial intelligence, and invisible digital dependencies, traditional leadership models no longer hold. This book challenges leaders to rethink authority, responsibility, and decision-making in systems where failure is silent, breaches are systemic, and ethics lag behind innovation. Blending cybersecurity strategy, organizational psychology, and executive leadership, The Trust Architect introduces a new mental model for building resilient institutions-where trust is engineered, not assumed. Written for CXOs, CISOs, board members, and senior leaders, this book is not about tools or checklists. It is about mindset. It asks one uncomfortable question: who designs trust when systems outgrow human control?

The Trust Architect

Routledge Advances in Feminist Studies and Intersectionality

This book examines men in powerful positions who question relations of power and domination from within. Through an intersectional lens, it illustrates how gender, class and other dimensions of domination intertwine and how an emancipatory critique can emerge from such privileged positions.Drawing on interviews with 23 current and former male executives from the Swiss financial sector alongside autobiographical accounts, the study analyses patterns of what the author terms "emancipatory eutopian critique" - focusing less on critique as heroic opposition and more on transformations towards caring relationships. From fathers abandoning lucrative careers to care for children to executives embracing caring and responsible leadership, these narratives illuminate "eutopian transformations", showing how an orientation towards caring relations to the self and others in the present can create more dialogical and caring futures. The analysis demonstrates how privilege can become a site of resistance and offers theoretical tools, including "gender as mosaic".Aimed at scholars, policy-makers, practitioners and students interested in links between men, masculinities, organisations and social transformation, this book is an invaluable resource for those working in and beyond such fields as gender studies, critical studies on men and masculinities, organisation and leadership studies, political science, sociology, social and public policy, and social movement studies.The Open Access version of this book, available at http://www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.

9 in 10 women experience ill mental health from poor life-work balance This book is for working women who feel dissatisfied with life, and who want to reinvent themselves to lead successful and fulfilling lives, in their personal life and at work. Our changing and challenging times have left many of us, and especially women, feeling burnt out, chronically worried and uncertain. At the same time, it's difficult to overstate just how much attitudes towards emotional wellbeing have changed in the last five years. As more and more of us struggle about how to exist in this unstable environment, question arise such as: How do you behave if you have a leadership role, given the unattractive role models we see currently in the US and elsewhere? What do you do as a mother when your children tell you they learnt at school that there will be a world war? The change is that women want a life that has meaning and purpose and there's more willingness to call out prejudice and predatory behaviour. Yet many of the same old problems persist. All of this is a case for stressing the importance of emotional connection, creativity and open-mindedness: attitudes and behaviours that will be at the heart of this timely book from pioneer coach, Jenny Rogers.

No-nonsense advice for the complexities of midlife

Your Time

You've heard of IQ and EQ. But in today's world, they're no longer enough. We need the Agility Quotient (AQ). In a time defined by nonstop disruptions, when jobs vanish overnight, industries evolve in months, and yesterday's rules no longer apply, AQ-the Agility Quotient-is the intelligence you need to handle change, uncertainty, and the unknown. The good news is that, with the right toolkit, you can grow your agility and learn to navigate a world of increasing instability. Drawing on leadership coach and former venture capitalist Liz Tran's work with over 200 successful founders, executives, and dozens of companies and organizations, AQ reveals a model for how high-performing teams and managers adapt to uncertainty. Tran will show you how to cultivate 'durable skills,' essential human abilities that remain valuable no matter what the future holds. With the book's Agility Archetype assessment, the book personalises the AQ journey to every kind of individual. No matter their experience level or ambitions. Written with conversational flair and practical advice, AQ offers readers a wealth of resources, including:<ul><li>Tools to rebuild confidence for when you're bombarded by life's curveballs or feeling burned out Actionable steps for making a big shift, even when you feel stuck.</li></ul><ul><li>Advice on finding clarity in moments of professional turbulence.</li></ul> AQ also takes readers behind the scenes at companies, from NVIDIA and Microsoft to rising start-ups like Lex, to see AQ in action. You'll also meet trailblazers like Maggie Lena Walker, the first female bank president in American history, and Emile-Maurice Hermès, who transformed Hermès into a global luxury powerhouse. As the adage goes, 'the only certain thing is change.' AQ is the critical intelligence for our unpredictable future.
