In 2013 Herrmann Arnold (at that time CEO and shareholder of Haufe-umantis AG) voluntarily stepped down as a CEO and appointed a former intern for the CEO position, because he was convinced that he wasn‘t the right person to continue the next growth stage of his company.

If you‘ve ever tried or are learning a language and haven‘t heard of the award-winning Prof. Krashen and his theory on second language acquisition, then you‘re in for a real treat and this episode will certainly blow your mind with things you probably haven’t heard yet - and you’ll likely get addicted to language learning.To answer some of the following questions, I talk to Prof. Stephen Krashen, one of the most prolific and most frequently cited scholars in the field of language education: Why language learning is still largely ineffective and hasn’t fundamentally improved over the last decadesHow Krashen’s theory about language acquisition, despite it being over 40 years old, remains groundbreakingWhy you can‘t learn a language by simply speaking it, contrary to popular beliefHow he can boldly claim that everyone acquires language in the same mannerWhy language learning is a subconscious process that can‘t be „turned off“Why there’s a strict separation between language acquisition and learning and why consciously learned language can only be used to monitor language output, but never be the source of spontaneous speechIn which particular order language is acquired and why that order does not change between learners and is also not affected by explicit instructionWhy learning grammar does not improve language acquisitionWhy it‘s simply not true that children acquire languages more easily than adults and provide overwhelming scientific evidence to back up this claimHow to apply his theory in practiceAnd finally, discuss the most powerful tool we have in language educationShow Notes, Transcription, & Resources Mentioned: gammabeyond.com/en/podcast/008Podcast Website: www.innovationalcorrectness.com---If you enjoyed this episode, could I ask you for one small favor?Would you please consider rating and reviewing this podcast on iTunes, Overcast or the podcast app of your choice?

In dieser Episode werde ich erklären warum die digitale Transformation nichts mit Technologie zu tun hat und die meisten Mittelständler mehr Mut benötigen, das zu nutzen, was sie bereits haben. Ein Appell an den deutschen Mittelstand.Ich erkläre warum:der Mittelstand bei der Digitalisierung bzw. Innovation oft hinter seinen Möglichkeiten zurückbleibt und wie er sich von den vermeintlichen Profis und damit meine ich primär Beratungen und Agenturen) über die Anforderungen an ihre Organisation einschüchtern lässt,sich diese Transformation mit traditionellen Denkmustern und Organisationsformen nicht erfolgreich umsetzen lässt,das scheinbar “neue” Thema eine uralte Herausforderung ist, die es schon seit Anbeginn des Industriezeitalters gibtund die Herausforderungen der Digitalisierung nichts mit Technik oder Technologie zu tun hat. Show Notes, Transcription, & Resources Mentioned: gammabeyond.com/en/podcast/003Podcast Website: www.innovationalcorrectness.com---If you enjoyed this episode, could I ask you for one small favor?Would you please consider rating and reviewing this podcast on iTunes, Overcast or the podcast app of your choice?

In this episode, I will explain why companies are focusing on the wrong thing when it comes to “digital transformation", why the over-reliance on technology can massively hurt your company, why companies are not and will not become innovative by simply using technology, and finally, why there's very little opportunity to gain a lasting competitive advantage against competitors. In this episode #001 we will cover: Why do companies, especially in Germany are focusing on the wrong thing when it comes to “digital transformation.Why the over-reliance on technology can massively hurt your company.
