Leserstimmen
"The Phoenix Effect" by Katrin Oppermann-Jopp and Klaus Boog is a book I can wholeheartedly recommend to any entrepreneurial family and any consultant working with owner-managed companies. Rather than lingering on theoretical concepts, the book takes its readers into an authentic case story: a family business in crisis that realigns itself with the help of an external CEO and a clear shift in values.
This practical focus runs through all chapters, making central models of corporate culture—such as Maslow or Barrett—tangible and directly applicable. I was particularly impressed by the clear language, motivating tone, and numerous hands-on exercises. The book isn’t about abstract visions; it’s about concrete steps to credibly implement cultural change. The authors demonstrate that values don’t have to be mere slogans but can provide lived guidance—especially in times of crisis.
★★★★★ Practical, motivating, and relevant – a tool for entrepreneurial families in transformation

The content is not only well-founded and thoroughly researched but also highly practical and written with genuine entrepreneurial spirit. It’s immediately clear that two experienced doers are speaking here—people who don’t just convey theory, but share insights from their own entrepreneurial practice.
The book offers numerous ideas and food for thought—for both seasoned entrepreneurs and founders. I particularly appreciated the clear language and direct style, which motivates action. Highly recommended for anyone looking to further develop their business or expand their entrepreneurial horizons. Many thanks to Katrin Oppermann-Jopp and Klaus Boog for this outstanding work!
