Autorentext
Heinz-Walter Große has a doctorate in management science. He has been chairman of the global medical engineering and pharmaceutical company B. Braun Melsungen AG since 2001. In more than 40 years with the company, he has seen many organization charts. Even during his tenure as Chief Financial Officer, he wondered at the fast pace at which new divisions with additional employees emerge. He is sure that thinking in terms of organization charts impedes collaboration and causes an uncontrolled increase in staff numbers. This he wants to change by means of Tasks & Teams. He believes that a change of mind is possible. Bernadette Tillmanns-Estorf has a doctorate in political science and Romance studies. For six years, she held various positions for the German parliament before she joined B. Braun in 1996 where she heads the Corporate Communi cations and Corporate Human Resources divisions. In this double role, team-oriented leadership, effective communication and motivated, self-dependent employees are a matter near to her heart. In her divisions, she therefore has been working according to the principles of Tasks & Teams across the borders of silos and little boxes since 2017, and continually advances this approach.
