Dr. Dr. Justinus Pech

    Justinus C. Pech teaches in leadership and business ethics at the Aarhus Summer University. In Leipzig at the HHL Leipzig Graduate School of Management, he teaches the Master of Science program on leadership, is active in the New Leipzig Talents Coaching Program as a coach and advises entrepreneurs in the context of their succession planning. In his work as a business coach, his clients include in particular senior executives. Furthermore, he teaches fundamental theology at the Philosophical-Theological University in Heiligenkreuz near Vienna.

    As a leadership lecturer, he places particular emphasis on working with students to encourage them to develop their own leadership philosophy with an ethical frame of reference. In addition to the knowledge transfer, he also takes into account the development of student’s personality. In this regard, leadership is not only a subject area to which students can relate, but has a large self-awareness component. Here, the leadership experiences are considered and then reflected based on the results of leadership research. It is especially important for family businesses to recruit junior staff and involve business succession in order to know whether they fit the founding family’s mission statement.
