Stress and Uncertainty in the Modern World: How to Build Resilience in Organizations

Since the year 2000, our individual stress experience has doubled. Current crises and technological transformations are omnipresent, causing uncertainty and future anxieties among employees. What do people in organizations and companies need to be successful in crises and transformations in a complex and uncertain world? Werner Katzengruber’s book answers this question from several perspectives. Psychology and neurobiology are set in the context of management and leadership. Mental health and thus the resilience of the organization have become critical success factors. In difficult times, the quality of corporate culture and the skills of leadership are put to the test.

The book describes which toxic factors can destroy a company from within and how the framework conditions for a resilient organization can be designed. It conveys scientifically based knowledge and decades of practical experience from the author. Future-oriented organizations need a new culture of understanding about the connections between mental health and performance capability. Thus, this book is also an appeal to leaders to expand their competencies in terms of their (self-)effectiveness.
