The right format for your event
Keynote speech
A keynote speech takes up your conference’s core themes, setting the tone for the event. For me, as a keynote speaker, it is not only important to entertain from the podium – but also to provoke. Allowing attendees to see a reflection of their everyday management produces “aha” moments and sets off exciting discussions. My keynote addresses illuminate topics from unfamiliar angles, which creates further space for discourse. My talks are “pure” and interactive, without any PowerPoint gimmicks. As a renowned expert in the areas of complexity and organizational resilience, I offer you the following keynote speeches:
- Complex is not complicated!
- The "New Work 4.0" - Are you prepared? (new)
- Error 4.0 – Why digitalization is your smallest problem
- Agility – A cure, or only half the story?
Interactive lectures
My interactive lectures come straight to the point – crisply and concisely. Scientifically sound insights are presented, with a touch of humor. I provide the audience with stimuli geared towards opening up intensive discourse. The propositions that I raise are quite provocative and are carefully thought through – in order to bring about discourse that is both challenging and vibrant. My interactive lectures can be summed up in three words – participatory, vibrant, and lucid. The following topics are available:
- Simple was yesterday – Projects between chaos and control!
- Escape the complexity trap – Where to?
- Think and act “complexly” – But how?
