The aim was to identify development and support needs resulting from the new strategic direction and to derive targeted measures for the managers involved.<\/p><p>In designing and implementing the initiative, it was particularly important to the client to create maximum distance from conventional assessment approaches.<\/p><p><strong>Solution: <\/strong><\/p><p>As the participant group consisted of experienced managers from various European and North African countries, we adopted an approach that appropriately acknowledged and took into account the leaders\u2019 professional backgrounds, age, and (life) achievements. In our experience, seasoned managers have no reservations about audits as long as they are conducted on an equal footing and reflect their professional reality.<\/p><p>In the business reviews we carried out \u2013 full-day individual audit sessions \u2013 participants presented their area of responsibility, its (business) development over recent years, their strategic approaches, their understanding of management, and their underlying attitude towards the leadership process. These perspectives were explored and discussed in an intensive disputation throughout the day.<\/p><p>A biographical interview and a questionnaire developed by us (\u201cLeadership Behaviour Inventory\u201d) completed the diagnostic setting.<\/p><p>At the end of each business review, we shared our observations and documented feedback with the participants in a detailed closing session. This ensured transparency of information and, at the same time, enabled us to jointly verify the substantive outcomes together with the managers involved.<\/p><p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Outcome: <\/strong><\/p><p>Using this tailored approach, we were able to provide our client with a fact-based and comprehensive assessment of the key dimensions relevant to them: strategic competence, operational capability, and entrepreneurial mindset. Dimensions more personality-related were captured as secondary observations.<\/p><p>The extensive documentation ensured that the findings of the evaluation were clearly traceable and reproducible, thereby forming a solid and transparent basis for any subsequent measures. All participating managers attested to the high degree of practical relevance, fairness, and transparency of this procedure, which resulted in the broadest possible acceptance of the outcomes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7b08d665 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"7b08d665\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7a845262 elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"7a845262\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/manager-berater.com\/en\/our-services-for-you\/separation-management\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Management Diagnostics<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-75b31b56 elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"75b31b56\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/manager-berater.com\/en\/our-services-for-you\/best-practice\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Best Practice<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"featured_media":8384,"template":"","art_case_cat":[148],"art_case_tag":[],"class_list":["post-57779","art-case","type-art-case","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","art_case_cat-management-diagnostics"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>International IT-Company: Our \u201cBusiness Review\u201d \u2013 Management Audit for Senior Executives - managerberater<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/manager-berater.com\/en\/art-case\/international-it-company-our-business-review-management-audit-for-senior-executives\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"International IT-Company: Our \u201cBusiness Review\u201d \u2013 Management Audit for Senior Executives - managerberater\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Keyfacts: Individual management audits in the IT sector using the Business Review methodology developed by managerberater.
