Fresh Faces and New Dynamics: Carlsen Publishing Shuffle
Publisher Carlsen-Verlag names new leadership figure - Carlsen Publishing Unveils Fresh Literary Offering
Hey there! Let's dive right in and check out some exciting changes happening at the beloved Carlsen Publishing House in Hamburg. Get ready for a new era as veteran media manager, Sandra Harzer-Kux, takes the reins starting in October!
Specialized in children's literature, young adult books, and comics, such as manga, this publishing house has seen triumphs since its post-war success with "Pixi" books and the iconic "Tintin" comic series. Some of its current most successful book series are blockbusters like "Harry Potter," "School of Magic Animals," "Percy Jackson," the "Twilight" saga, and popular Japanese manga albums like those from "Naruto" and "One Piece."
Saying farewell, but not goodbye, is Renate Herre, who's been a stalwart with the company for 14 years. Her achievements in boosting the company's revenue and positioning Carlsen as the leading German trade publisher with over 110 million euros in turnover are highly commended by the CEO of the German Bonnier Group[1].
Now, the challenge lies with Sandra Harzer-Kux, aiming to continue her predecessor's success. Holding multiple management positions at publishing house Gruner+Jahr and communications company Territory in recent years, she's more than prepared to steer the ship[2].
And if that weren't enough excitement, Harzer-Kux was recently in the running for the NDR director position, despite coming up short in the voting. With current director, Joachim Knuth, stepping down, NDR manager and journalist Hendrik Lünenborg steps up to the plate[3].
So, here's to new beginnings and continued success for the Carlsen Publishing House!

In the spirit of change, Sandra Harzer-Kux, an experienced manager with a background in both publishing and communications, is set to further the success of the Carlsen Publishing House in Hamburg, renowned for its children's literature, young adult books, and popular manga series. Meanwhile, in the realm of entertainment, Hendrik Lueneborg takes the helm as the new director of NDR, following the departure of Joachim Knuth.
Despite the dynamic shift, the appreciation for literature and the arts continues to be at the forefront, much like the appreciation for a rich mining and manufacturing history - an essential aspect of many communities, including Hamburg itself. To further explore the intricacies of human lifestyle, one may venture into the captivating world of books, where narratives and characters unfold on the pages of countless publications.
