Sascha Alexander Kugler (born December 8, 1965 in Berchtesgaden ) is a German management theorist and founder of the Alchimedus method .

Life

After studying business administration at the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg , Kugler worked as managing director as well as marketing and sales manager. Since 1998 he has worked as a management theorist, serial entrepreneur, investor and specialist author of several books (including on management theory, corporate strategy, brand and general management). His main research interests are management theory and systemic organizational development. The concept of the brand semantic space he developed is the basis of his Alchimedus licensing system.

Alchimedus method

From 2001, Sascha Kugler developed the Alchimedus method as an approach to corporate management that is oriented towards long-term and holistic values. According to his own statements, he was influenced by the American authors Jim Collins , William Edwards Deming , Lance Secretan , Napoleon Hill , the Austrian economist Joseph Alois Schumpeter and the solution-oriented coaching method of Steve de Shazer . Kugler's approach is a meta-model or an open source approach. From more than 180 scientific approaches, Kugler has derived 60 so-called enabling factors, i.e. H. Criteria that promote business success. These enabling factors are assigned to three categories (fields of force): structural force (e.g. processes and methods), strength to break new ground (e.g. strategy, branding, creativity) and community strength (e.g. communication and value orientation). In order to determine which of the three forces and the 60 enabling factors are well developed in a company and which are less, the so-called potential analysis is used, which consists of 3 × 20 questions.

criticism

The method developed by Kugler is used by around 45,000 users and more than 620 consultants. The method was criticized from a scientific point of view for its vague questions that did not provide any clearly measurable results.
