SMG: Magazine on entrepreneurs and managers launched
The Swiss Management Association (SMG) is launching a new magazine under the title Management. In the publication, the association reports on entrepreneurs and top executives. The first issue appeared on Monday with Philippe Gaydoul, entrepreneur and president of Swiss Ice Hockey on the cover.
Editorially, the magazine sees itself as an open publication that is also intended to arouse interest among people interested in business and managers outside the company. Experiences and knowledge regarding leadership work are to be made accessible to a wider circle of readers. "There are enough publications in which specialist knowledge is conveyed," says Thomas Bergen, SMG president and CEO of the Get Abstract speaker service. Management goes beyond theoretical debates and brings portraits of people and their experiences gained in everyday management.
Management is published in an initial print run of 3,000 copies, which are mailed to SMG members and distributed to individuals and institutions. At least three issues per year are planned. In the team of SMG Managing Director Luc Estapé, Pietro Simmen (Simmen Wirth & Partner) is in charge of production and the entire project. Dave Hertig (Cecchetto & Hertig) is editor-in-chief and André Heller (Hellermeier, NZZ Group) is responsible for layout. Advertising sales (Peter Thomann, St. Galler Tagblatt AG) and printing (Multicolor Print) are also part of the NZZ Group.
