On 22 October 2025, the WEGVISOR® Leadership Event took place in Chemnitz.
Small and medium-sized business, skilled trades, public administration or social institutions: the guests brought very different perspectives – and one shared topic: leadership.
Titus Lindl gave the keynote of the evening: he presented John C. Maxwell's 5 Levels of Leadership.
Insight from the talk · More relationship instead of new tools
Many teams don't suffer from a lack of competence, but from leadership that gets stuck on Level 1. Then new methods, tools and processes are introduced – and little changes. Often the more effective step would be a very simple one: spending time with people, listening and showing genuine interest. Relationship is not an extra, it is the prerequisite.
Takeaway: Before introducing a new tool, ask yourself whether your team trusts you.
A big thank-you to the hosts who brought their guests, to all guests for the open conversations and to the WEGVISOR® team for the organisation. Thanks also to pentagon3 in Chemnitz.
