Abstract
The growing technological progress and the concomitant complexity in professional life poses new challenges for executives. These complexities are particularly noticeable in the health care sector at the middle management level on a daily basis. The executives are in an intermediate position: Both care work and managerial functions must be matched up sophisticatedly to meet and satisfy all target groups. Many decisions (especially for questions that arise for the first time or those that are unique) are commonly made based on intuition or trial-and-error principle. Usually, the possible consequences of alternative decisions cannot be reliably determined in advance. This paper addresses these issues and describes methods for dealing with them. Therefore, initial results of a respective analysis are going to be introduced.
