Purpose of this website

This website does not offer products, services or commercial activities.
Who he was
Prof. Dr. Jörg Knoblauch (1949–2025) was a German entrepreneur, author and leadership thinker.
Over several decades, he worked at the intersection of entrepreneurship, leadership responsibility and Christian values. His work focused on long-term orientation rather than short-term success and was shaped by clarity, discipline and personal accountability.
He accompanied entrepreneurs, executives and organizations across different industries and contexts, emphasizing responsibility for people, organizations and decisions.
His work and influence
Jörg Knoblauch’s work was characterized by a clear understanding of leadership as responsibility. He combined strategic thinking with personal reflection and ethical orientation.
Central aspects of his influence included:
- leadership development for entrepreneurs
- structured decision-making
- long-term organizational thinking
- values-based reflection on responsibility and authority
His work extended beyond individual companies and shaped leadership networks, mentoring formats and international learning experiences.
Christian foundation
Christian faith was not a private aspect of Jörg Knoblauch’s life. It formed the foundation of his thinking and his understanding of leadership.
He believed that entrepreneurship and faith should not be separated. Leadership, in his view, always implied accountability — before people and before God.
This perspective shaped many of the formats he initiated and accompanied, particularly those focused on reflection, responsibility and personal development among entrepreneurs.
What has ended
Following the sale of his former company in 2020 and after his passing on 7 February 2025, Jörg Knoblauch no longer held any operational, strategic or organizational responsibility for commercial activities.
Former corporate structures associated with his work have been formally concluded. They do not represent current providers, organizers or responsible entities.
