Ebook: Der Aufstieg der Manager: Wertewandel in den Führungsetagen der westdeutschen Wirtschaft, 1949-1989

After the Second World War, the manager became a dominant figure in modern companies, including those in West Germany. Bernhard Dietz explains this rise of the manager and puts it in the context of changing ideals and models. By exploring how “work”, “performance”, and “leadership” changed from National Socialism to neoliberalism, he casts an entirely new light on the cultural history of capitalism.
