Enjoy Your Business

Mehr zum Buch

Matthias Scharlach, born in Germany in 1950, spent his formative years there before completing a locksmith’s apprenticeship and studying to become a certified teacher of mathematics and physics. He worked as a teacher and later delved into personality psychology, becoming a university lecturer and author of doctoral theses published in Germany and abroad. In 1989, he became a professor and founded a university institute for educational sciences. At 41, he transitioned from academia to the private sector, conducting seminars on management training, change management, personal core competencies, and career planning. His foray into prose emerged from engaging discussions with various political, business, and cultural figures, leading to aphorisms that reflect human behavior in decision-making and challenging situations, encouraging readers to reflect and improve. His “Enjoy Your Business” booklet compiles these insights, emphasizing his life philosophy: “Do things with enthusiasm and commitment, or don’t do them at all!” Scharlach enjoys a fulfilling family life with his wife and two sons, appreciates good food in stylish settings, and is equally comfortable in the wilderness. He is intrigued by foreign cultures, adventures, and problem-solving, with favorite authors like Raymond Chandler and Jonas Jonasson, and a fondness for the music of Dire Straits and Maurice Ravel.
