A certificate course from the KHKT.
How do performance orientation and respect for the personality of employees go together? How do you find the right workers for the company/institution, and how do they develop loyalty? Who are the people who embrace your cause and are ready to do their best? Who fits into your team? How do good decisions come about that are supported by many?
As one of the most prominent economic and social ethicists, Elmar Naß researches and works on these topics, which are particularly burning on the nails of companies and institutions under the conditions of a shortage of skilled workers. The certificate seminar designed by Prof. Naß shows how Christian values lead to answers that suit you and can be brought to life in your everyday working life.
In order to achieve the desired goal, everything depends on orientation, which in a unique way offers a compass of values and dignity that is nourished by the biblical message and the Christian tradition.
