In this episode, Frauke von Polier discusses why transformation today is no longer a linear path from A to B, but rather a continuous process involving loops. She demonstrates why many programs lose momentum in everyday life, how leadership can maintain direction and momentum, and why attitude is often much more crucial than any methodology. The focus is on the human aspect of leadership, the conscious combination of culture and key figures, and the question of how leadership makes effectiveness possible in the first place. It also deals with leadership of the future, why AI does not replace leadership but rather further increases its importance, and which aspects must remain with humans so that organizations remain productive.
Our guest is Frauke von Polier, Chief People Officer and member of the Executive Board of the Viessmann Generations Group. Previously, she was Chief People Officer at Zalando and COO People at SAP.
