Background to the award
The German Leadership Award was created on the initiative of the German alumni of the Collège des Ingénieurs (CDI) in 2013 and is being presented for the third time this year. The award recognizes managers, companies or institutions that introduce and implement leadership in their working environment in an innovative and successful way and that bring the topic to the public in a particularly value-adding way.
The award reflects the views of young, successful Generation Y managers (born after 1980) on leadership in German-speaking companies or institutions. Excellent young engineers, alumni of the renowned Collège des Ingenieurs, look for outstanding examples of exemplary corporate leadership and submit nominations based on their own experiences.
the 2016 award winner
His attitude towards people, employees and colleagues has enabled him, especially in times of crisis, to make unpleasant but necessary decisions in the management team consensual through trust and the ability to deal with conflict and to successfully lead the subsequent change process with the employees.
Lars Wagner in his laudatory speech for award winner Peter Bauer
Within two years, Mr. Bauer led the DAX-listed company Infineon Technologies AG out of turbulent waters as CEO. He has mastered extensive changes - from rapid growth and major restructuring to the insolvency of a majority shareholding and massive conflicts within the management team.
