KEYNOTES & TALKS · AI, LEADERSHIP, COLLABORATION
Keynotes and talks your team will still be talking about months later.
We give interactive keynotes on AI, leadership and collaboration. Mostly remote, on-site if you prefer, in English or German. For leaders, teams and whole organizations.
Your audience takes part from the very first minute.
- Remote or on-site
- English or German
- About 60 minutes
A good keynote
is a conversation.
We’ve spent many years on stages and digital platforms, at large industry events as well as internal staff meetings. Our approach stays the same: we go deep on the subject and get your audience involved from the first minute, for example with live polls or a small experiment. People remember more of that than of a slide deck.
What we enjoy most is when someone gets in touch months or years later to tell us about an idea they took away from one of our talks.
Often the keynote kicks off a new strategy or opens a training program. Sometimes it’s simply the highlight of a team event.
Past stages include CeBIT, Bitkom Akademie, Evangelische Bank and many internal kick-offs.
OUR KEYNOTES · FOUR SET FORMATS
Our keynotes at a glance
Each keynote runs about 60 minutes, is built around interaction and can be paired with a follow-up workshop.
LEADERSHIP · LIVE EXPERIMENT
Future-ready leadership: what good leaders will need to master
A change of perspective that moves between self-reflection, work on the system and the conditions that make teams effective.
Away from abstract leadership models and toward working on the system, not just in it. In a live experiment, your audience sees how directly their own leadership behavior shapes a team’s results.
AI · LEADERSHIP · CO-CREATION
More empathic leadership with AI as your sparring partner
Generative AI as a sparring partner for psychologically safe leadership.
AI as a coach for everyday leadership: together with the audience, we prepare a difficult one-on-one live and write feedback that is clear and still appreciative.
AI · COLLABORATION · WORKSLOP
The workslop trap: between promised efficiency and information overload
How teams use AI wisely instead of drowning in empty output.
AI is supposed to take work off your plate. Often it creates more: texts that look good and say little, and colleagues who have to check them line by line. The keynote shows what that costs and how teams take back ownership of the content.
AGILE WORKING · SCRUM
Rethinking collaboration: getting started with Scrum that works
How teams deliver results faster and more reliably while everything around them changes.
When requirements keep shifting, a classic project plan no longer holds. Using examples from business, we show how short cycles, clear roles and regular check-ins get teams out of project chaos.
CUSTOM KEYNOTES
Your topic, your stage
Besides the four set formats, we develop keynotes tailored to your challenge, your time frame and the goal of your event. These are the core areas we cover:
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
From strategic context to everyday use at work.
LEADERSHIP
Leading when teams work remotely and technology sets the pace.
COMMUNICATION
Communicating clearly and creating psychological safety, especially in cross-functional teams.
AGILE WORKING
Methods and mindset that make organizations more adaptable.
KEYNOTE + WORKSHOP
From inspiration to action
A keynote sparks curiosity and opens new perspectives. To make the ideas stick in daily work, you can combine any keynote with our workshops and training, whether it’s a set format or a custom one.
About 60 minutes that set the topic and bring everyone up to the same level. A good fit to launch a new strategy or open an event.
Right after the keynote or as a modular series, selected teams apply what they heard to their own work, for example in the AI literacy workshop, the lateral leadership training, agile basics or the Scrum workshop.
Ideas turn into routines. We work out with you how many sessions you need and how far apart they should be.
COMBINED PACKAGES
Keynote and workshop from one source
We help you choose the format, length and combinations that make sense for your event. A short conversation is usually enough to find the right setup.
WHO'S ON STAGE
Speakers who bring real practice
We combine computer science, psychology and many years of hands-on work with teams and organizations. That’s why our stories on stage come from real projects.
ARCHITECT OF SYSTEMS & MINDS
Alex brings together computer science and psychology. A former software developer and now a coach, he talks about leadership and AI in a way that tech enthusiasts and skeptics can both follow. What interests him most is what people need to do a really good job.
CATALYST FOR EXECUTION
Nadine brings the view from day-to-day operations and project management. She knows where good intentions from a keynote fall apart in daily business, and she makes sure ideas turn into concrete next steps.

The terms overlap a lot. A keynote is usually the main talk of an event and sets its theme. A short talk is often briefer and gives people something to think about for the discussion or work that follows. Our formats work in both roles.
