Both the knowledge that I have and the very message that I bring stir things up, provide scrutiny and motivation, and ensure that there is a targeted course of action. This is why companies and organizations invite me back, again and again, to pass on my expertise in the form of lectures, articles or interviews.
So what do my lectures amount to? They involve me emotionally conveying their profound content in the style of storytelling – they make good listening, and they are very memorable. But hear and read them for yourself!
Here you can find some of my lectures and publications on a variety of themes; you can also find press clippings and press reports about me: The Press
