Dr. Thomas Gawron looks back on a 30-year career as a manager in renowned DAX and MDAX companies. As Managing Director of a leading IT service provider, he led and successfully implemented the company's digital transformation in his role as Chief Transformation Officer. A key lesson of his career: Without a fundamental change in leadership methodology, the transformation would have failed. In his most recent publications, " The Digital Executive " and " The Boss's Problem " (both published by Duncker & Humblot), he has created a practice-oriented approach to developing leadership skills in digital transformation with his MAESTRO leadership approach , which has received a great response from practitioners.
