Stephen (Steve) Engelking grew up in England as a so-called 'war baby' with an English mother and a Texan Father. He did not have it too easy as a youngster and finally left grammar school to take up an apprenticeship with Royal Dutch Shell as an instrument mechanic. He later became a sales engineer for Honeywell Controls and other organizations. Having married at the age of 19, his wife has been his life-long companion and they have lived a busy and adventurous life. In their young years, they decided jointly to become teachers and both studied at London University. She majored in mathematics (so she has always looked after the 'beans') and he majored in religious studies (the 'dreams').… These studies brought him into a new world of thinking and new contacts. It was during this time that he met Hugh Schonfield and worked with him on his vision of a new society based on equity and justice. Another of his associates was Willi Haller. They became close friends with him and his family. Together they founded a community school in London to experiment with practice-oriented education for school dodgers. Later they joined Willi in Germany at the founding of his company Interflex where Steve became materials manager (so he did his fair share of managing beans too). Some ten years later, he founded his own electronics company, which was finally passed on to his son Amos a couple of years ago and continues to grow, before setting to write down these thoughts. He has also founded the Arun and Sunanda Gandhi Educational Institute in Germany with Arun Gandhi whilst at a conference in Nepal as a delegate from the International Leadership and Business Society of which he is chairman.He have been lecturing strategic management and marketing amongst students from a wide variety of universities in both English and German for well over a decade now. He states that he has profited a lot from the interaction with others and especially because many of these students studying for an MBA bring a lot of their experience into the process. He is also a council member of the historical Sack Family Foundation, which means that he travels and interacts with the most interesting people across the globe from all walks of life.He is very concerned with the search for a holistic approach to management and the role of organizations in building an ethical and fair society.
