BIODATA
PROF. DR. KARL WAGNER graduated both in Sociology and Business
Administration from the University of Munich in 1987. Besides this, he was
trained in numerous areas covering facilitation techniques, total quality
management and team training. Since 1991, he had held several senior positions
in the corporate sector before he became a lecturer at the University of Applied
Sciences Rosenheim / Germany in 1993. Together with his Malaysian partners,
Prof. Karl Wagner provides consultancy and training primarily in the field of
human resource management (e.g. recruitment, development), leadership (e.g.
silent cost analysis, motivation feasibility studies) and change management (e.g.
the path from vision to action).
He was awarded a scholarship of the German Academic Exchange Service to
research the former German Democratic Republic in Berlin. By his thesis on that
topic, he took his German Ph.D. at the Faculty of Economy at the University of
Münster in 1991 and spent the next three years as a HR-manager in industry.
This was followed by another 10 years of teaching as professor at the University
of Applied Sciences Rosenheim, specialising again in HR-management and
organisational development. Prior to his position as a professor and consultant
after the Berlin wall broke up, Prof. Karl Wagner was working as a project
manager in the former Eastern Germany (GDR). Focusing on the partnership
between the industry and the University his intention is to bridge the gap between
theory and practice to the mutual benefits of both sides. Besides taking care of
several projects in industry, Prof. Karl Wagner also has been head of the study
branch on Human Resource Management. He was the national organiser for the
first synergies forum between all colleagues of his state Bavaria.
Prof. Wagner was also responsible for the conceptualisation, planning and
implementation of several flexi-time models in German industry. One of them,
conducted for one of the most excellent internationally operating office furniture
producer, saved the company 2.6 million RM within the first year of use.
Prof. Wagner also was responsible for conceptualising, planning and co-
ordinating the implementation of some modern management proposal programs.
He also implemented this model to his own university where lecturers, co-
workers and students can share their creativity by proposals on the homepage by
an integrated data bank. He is the founder president of the Human Resource
Circle providing an internet platform for both his graduates and HR-managers
who collaborate with the University in terms of practical projects and recruitment.
Since 2000, Prof. Dr. Karl Wagner has served as a resource person on HR
management and customer orientation projects to larger German companies like
BMW, Steelcase Germany or the German Railway Company. He has conducted
team workshops for some leading hospitals for professionals, teachers and
students.
During the last 10 years, Prof. Wagner has also received wide international
exposure and reputation, especially in Malaysia and in Thailand. Furthering on
the applied side of science, he has delivered inhouse workshops for corporate
organisations like Siemens, Schott Glass Malaysia, Daimler Chrysler, the
Malaysian-German Chamber of Commerce or the Pantai Hospital Group.
For several companies, he was responsible for team building and development.
On a part-time basis, he became both lecturer and supervisor in different
Universities, like UM, UMS and UPM. His last position was to act as a consultant
for the Senior Vice President of Open University Malaysia.
