2018 Management Seminars in English, St. Gallen International Business School
The seminar program of the Business School St. Gallen is based on the “St. Gallen Concept of an Integrated Management”. Today, this St. Gallen Management-Concept is standard within modern management training and development. The Concept of Integrated Management provides a mental map and steering aid which meet the needs of today’s very complex and global challenges. But the St. Gallen Approach advanced by Professor Knut Bleicher intentionally isn’t a recipe or a nostrum. In fact it offers a perfect framework – a “framework for meaning” (Ulrich) – which helps managers to identify and solve problems by themselves. Therefore the experienced manager gets via integrated process concepts essential thoughtprovoking impulses and instruments that enable him applying the holistic St. Gallen body of thought within the own company. As a consequence answers and basic concepts in order to deal with permanent change emerge. The St. Gallen Concept by Professor Bleicher has been recently published in the 9th edition (2017) and has accomplished a constant place in management literature. Although at the moment the enhancements of the St. Gallen Model focus on ethical aspects in the sense of Corporate Citizenship and process-optimizing, the Integrated Management Concept of Knut Bleicher remains the central pillar of the St. Gallen understanding of management. Moreover this integrated approach marks an explicit opposite pole to unidimensional management thinking especially widely spread among anglamerican areas.
