Managing Performing Living is a classic in the field of management. Fredmund Malik reveals everything that all executives and experts in leading positions need to know, anytime and anywhere. He provides readers with the universal principles, tasks and tools of effective management and self-management. His book ranks among the 100 best business books of all times. The new, completely revised and updated edition is tailored to a new generation of managers, to whom effectiveness is the key to success. It shows the way to turn knowledge, personal strengths, talent, creativity and innovative thinking into results. Managing Performing Living helps readers to cope with the „Great Transformation21“, as Malik calls the ongoing centennial change in business and society. It is a book on how to create functioning organizations in a viable society.

In the author's preface, Fredmund Malik introduces a new management concept tailored for our complex world, arguing that traditional US management approaches have failed to address systemic complexities. He emphasizes the necessity for a holistic management system to navigate these challenges, proposing that effective management must be recognized as a profession akin to surgery or law.

In a few years, almost everything will be different: what we do, how we do it, and why we do it; how we produce and consume, how we conduct research, how we teach and learn, how we share information, communicate and cooperate, how we work-and how we live. How do we deal with this in business, politics and society? Great changes open up great possibilities, pushing aside the old and creating the new. Management, as Fredmund Malik understands it, is the task of taking advantage of these possibilities. This book is a call to clear-sightedness and personal courage. It is a chart for navigating the Great Transformation21, it is a chart for navigating with an open horizon. „Fredmund Malik has become the leading analyst of, and expert on, Management in Europe ... and a powerful force in shaping it as a consultant. He is a commanding figure - in theory as well as in the practice of Management.“ Peter F. Drucker

Clear language is always also an instrument of clear thinking. By the same token, the clearest sign of wrong thinking - and thus, ultimately, wrong management - is language that lacks clarity. The use of carelessly defined terms can do a lot of damage; the wrong use of certain terms can lead to wrong, sometimes even risky management actions and wrong management decisions. Fredmund Malik points out the psychological, management, and economic errors managers tend to make, and explains how these errors can be avoided; for clear language is a key to right and good management. „Fredmund Malik is the leading expert in the field of management in Europe. He is the most important voice - in theory and practice of management.“ Peter Drucker „Malik demonstrates how, in extreme cases, the wrong use of fashionable terms can even lead to entrepreneurial disaster.“ Wirtschaft & Markt „Malik is listened to because management knowledge has never been more important. (…) Malik incessantly cautions against the money-mindedness at those corporations where ›stock speculators, boasters, bluffers, and sometimes even criminals‹ call the shots.“ Süddeutsche Zeitung

Fredmund Malik provides insights into his cybernetic tools in this book, including a user manual. He emphasizes "General System Policy" and "Master Controls" as key functions for future corporate governance. Malik illustrates how organizations should be structured to enable self-organization, presenting his cybernetic general management system for the complexity age.

Das Management der Zukunft Wie der Management-Vordenker Fredmund Malik darlegt, wird systemischevolutionäres Denken in Zukunft immer wichtiger - genauso wie die Anwendung der Kybernetik auf das Management. Denn Organisationen sind komplexe Systeme mit ihren eigenen Gesetzmäßigkeiten und Verhaltensweisen. Sie benötigen ein Management, das ihrer Komplexität entspricht. Malik liefert in diesem englischsprachigen Buch die Theorie des neuen Managements der Komplexität, aber auch Strategien und Methoden, die für Manager und Führungskräfte unverzichtbar sind.

„Fredmund Malik has become the leading analyst of, and expert on, management in Europe (…). He is the most important voice - in theory as well as in the practice of Management“ Peter Drucker Long before everybody else, Malik uncovered the false logic on which conventional corporate governance is grounded, using his comprehensive general management framework. He unmasked neo-liberalism's false and destructive teachings, and the errors caused by the mechanical application of financial management. In this book he reveals why manager scandals, company disintegrations and the collapse of the financial system result from false corporate governance. Malik then contrasts this against his cutting edge solutions to organizing and controlling the complex systems of the 21st century. A healthy economy in a functioning society requires companies to strive for customer value not shareholder value, competitiveness not size, real engineering solutions not financial engineering solutions. „Many practitioners hang on his every word and appreciate his candid language.“ Wirtschaft und Weiterbildung „Malik is listened to because management knowledge has never been more important.“ Süddeutsche Zeitung

This book describes Malik's strategic solutions for the Revolutions of the New World, which are already underway. They are part of the Great Transformation 21 which the author will address in the book. In the six parts of this book, he will first look at the dynamics of the Great Transformation 21, its inherent risks of crisis and its opportunities, as well as the labor pains that the New World is suffering. After that, he will deal with the amazingly effective cybernetic systems for strategic navigation and the strategy maps required for that, as well as the empirical quantification of businesses, both existing and yet unknown, which will help break the new territory of innovation. Finally, Malik will reveal the patterns that the tidal currents of great transformations invariably follow, as well as the economic dynamics resulting from them and the strategies required to deal with them. In the last part of the book he will describe the revolutionary new methods that enable us to master groundbreaking strategic change with great precision and unprecedented time compression - at the „speed of light“, so to speak. This way, even enormous corporate growth and size can be managed and turned into true strengths, with perfect ease and using innovative approaches where conventional approaches have proven useless.
