Passion@Excellence

Leadership does not begin with methods. Leadership begins with attitude.

Behind the publications lies a simple conviction: effective leadership grows from the combination of passion and excellence – from the will to take responsibility and the ambition to do things genuinely well. Passion@Excellence is the connecting idea behind the publications of Dr. Martin Greiner. It describes an attitude that combines operational rigour with human responsibility: not merely making decisions, but standing behind them. Not merely organising structures, but bringing them to life. Not merely planning success, but shaping it sustainably. This attitude shapes both the consulting work of A1MAGS and the publications that have emerged from decades of international leadership experience. They are not a theoretical concept, but an expression of lived practice – across different industries, markets and cultures.

Author & Publications

Dr. Martin Greiner publishes specialist books and field reports on leadership, international corporate management and intercultural management practice. His publications complement the consulting services of A1MAGS and document experience from more than 30 years of international leadership responsibility – written from his own sense of responsibility, for people who carry responsibility.

Personal experiences from international leadership roles

A reflective account of living and working in South Africa from the perspective of a European senior manager. It examines how responsibility, leadership and everyday life change when familiar cultural frameworks no longer apply.

Südafrika – jenseits europäischer Gewissheiten
