12 theses for a better economy

Our manifesto for progressive leadership

What if ... 

... the economy were efficient and meaningful?

... leadership were measured by numbers and impact – for companies, society and people themselves?

 


At Stella Circle, we are convinced that the future of the economy will be decided at the top. Where leaders dare to shape the future instead of merely managing it. Where self-reflection and creative drive come together. Where confidence means clarity rather than harshness.

Our 12 theses are more than just food for thought – they are our compass. For leadership that leads by example. For organisations that dare to undergo genuine transformation. And for an economy that works and moves forward effectively.

1
Overcoming fear is a sign of progressive leadership.

Suppressing fear hinders progress. Only those who acknowledge their fears can overcome them and shape them courageously.

2
Fun and successful work are not mutually contradictions.

Laughter at the workplace is essential. Satisfied managers foster a productive work environment.

3
Progress through diversity replaces stagnation through homogeneity.

More diversity in aspects like gender, nationality, or age drives real progress and fosters growth.

4
L’Etat, c’est nous – or: The company is us.

All forces within a company must be unleashed to enhance the ability to innovate.

5
Future viability is only possible with team spirit at the top.

Leadership teams must work together instead of each acting individually.

6
Sustainability comes from long-term visions.

Future-oriented leadership ensures long-term success and prevents short-term thinking and reactionary decision-making.

7
Self-care replaces self-sacrifice: positive egoism.

Healthy and successful leaders do not neglect themselves.

8
The pseudo-economy is obsolete.

Certificates and titles are less important than actual skills and achievements. The ability to learn is the key to the future.

9
Transformation must include the company leadership - or it will fail.

Change must be credibly demonstrated by the leadership in order for everyone to follow.

10
Customer focus instead of a product obsession secures business success.

True user-centricity in all major German companies would transform our lives in unimaginable ways.

11
Not everything that shines is gold.

We need a system that truly reflects managerial performance, just as it has long been the case in sports.

12
Future shapers break through rigid structures.

Progressive leadership requires overcoming the status quo and exploring new paths.
