This book is intended for readers who want to try out collegial leadership and agile
self-organisation in a very practical way ? either in their own organisation or by providing
external professional support for an organisation. At the same time coaches and organisational
developers who already have specialist systemic experience will probably be able to make much
greater use of the systemic principles and the technical terms we use in the book. ?Claudia
Schröder and Bernd Oestereich work holistically with the organisation at all levels and lead
with a sure hand through a process of comprehensive change. They have a sophisticated
compendium of collegial management tools with which the decisions always remain with the
organisation itself.? Eva Schad Managing Partner for David Chipperfield Architects Berlin
?Collegial leadership is an agile concept that structurally enables self-organisation and
participation. It is based on a humanistic view of people and individual and organisational
learning processes. The framework and the practical tools support us in trying out distributed
leadership work.? Dr. Christian GeyerTechnical Director Bathildisheim e.V. ?The collegial
leadership model has inspired many colleagues and teams at DB. The open and modular approach
suits the different needs of organisational development at DB.? Martin Seiler Board Member
for Human Resources and Legal Affairs at Deutsche Bahn (DB) ?With the tools and attitude of
collegial leadership Bernd and Claudia make a decisive contribution to bringing people
together at eye level and to solving entrepreneurial challenges of the future on their own
responsibility. The handbook is a well-founded and entertaining basis for work and dialogue for
everyone involved in the process.? Susanne Blüml Team Leader and Organisation Developer at
dm-drogerie markt GmbH + Co. KG
