Competence Development in Controlling and Management Accounting : With Systematic Personnel Development to Success
(Print Material)

The book serves as a guideline for systemic personnel development in controlling and management accounting of nationally and internationally active companies based on a targeted development of competences. In particular, the challenges posed by digitalization and globalization are considered and substantiated with the help of empirical studies. The goals of systematic personnel development are the formation of high-performance teams in controlling as well as the identification of personal career paths on the way to top management tasks as CFO. The focus of the personnel development model is on the transfer of the competence-oriented development approach, which, in addition to the traditionally considered technical and methodological competences, also takes into account social and personal competences as well as additional digital and intercultural competences. The book is rounded off by methods to make an inventory of the current state, the definition of a target state to strive for, a discussion of suitable further training measures and a review of the level of competence achieved.
