| | | | Dear Sir or Madam,
| |
| |
| | 
still working or letting AI work for you? Sure, AI won’t take over all of our jobs – but AI tools are doing a surprisingly good job at work.
You can already rely on AI to do many standardized managerial tasks, but did you know that even the supposed last human bastion in companies – leadership – is not safe from falling to AI? In my blog post, learn how AI will not only fundamentally change leadership but even replace a manager or two. We all need to enter the debate …now!
Do you have a different view? Or do you want to know how you can improve your leadership using AI and other tools and methods? Feel free to drop me a note.
Other topics in this issue: Does it make more sense to reduce emissions at the outset or offset them afterwards? According to a study by my colleague Christian Troester, consumers for one are clear in their position: They’re only willing to spend more money on products that really reduce CO2 – read here what that means for companies. Humanitarian logistics: Around 75% of relief effort costs fall to supply chain management. KLU Dean of Research Maria Besiou’s study shows how we can cut costs and thereby help more.
I hope you enjoy this read as well as these first days of summer.
Yours,
Prof. Dr. Niels Van Quaquebeke
Professor of Leadership and Organizational Behavior, Head of Department of Leadership and Management
P.S. Vanish into virtual worlds at KLU. Go exploring in our MBA program along the production line to better understand lean management. Get a sense in this video …

| | | | Offsetting or reducing CO2: Consumers want these things to happen | |
| |
| | More and more companies want to reduce emissions or compensate for greenhouse gases – by doing the math, it appears that both help the environment to an equal extent. But how do consumers perceive these measures? A study by KLU, UHH, and the University of Tennesse shows that they are only willing to spend more on products if emissions are clearly reduced.
