In 1977 he received his doctorate with a conceptual thesis on the subject of "Environment, Technology and Organizational Structure", within which he carried out an analysis and criticism of the contingency theory. The habilitation took place - like the doctorate - with Horst Steinmann at the University of Nuremberg-Erlangen in 1983 on the subject of corporate strategy - basic questions of a theory of strategic corporate management . The honorary doctorate was Schreyögg in 2014 by the Karl-Franzens University of Graz awarded.

The VHB made him an honorary member in 2017 for his great commitment.

In the years 2005–2006 he was chairman of the Association of University Lecturers for Business Administration (VHB) . Since 2008 he has headed the graduate college “Paths of Organizational Processes” funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG).
