Sound familiar?

A great talk – and the next day it's all gone?

  • The audience listens politely, but by dinner nobody is talking about the talk any more.
  • Lots of slides, lots of figures – and hardly any of it sticks.
  • A motivational talk inspires for a moment, but nothing changes in everyday work.
  • You're looking for a topic that appeals to leaders, employees and apprentices alike.

In my keynotes, your audience learns as they go – and sees first-hand how even dry information can stick in just a few minutes. A talk about memory that people actually remember.

My keynotes

Four topics for your event

Every talk is tailored to your audience and occasion – from a short impulse talk to a full-length keynote.

The classic

“Forget about forgetting!”

Retain knowledge, reduce stress and strengthen teams at the same time

For leaders and employees · Company events · Kick-offs

Too much on the desk, too little in the head? Information overload, multitasking and constant change mean that important knowledge gets lost. Your audience discovers how the brain really works – and how simple memory techniques help it work more effectively, with more focus and less stress.

  • More clarity, fewer mistakes in everyday work
  • Faster onboarding and knowledge transfer
  • Less stress through mental structure

The deep dive for your team: the workshop BrainFit.

AI & creativity

“An upgrade for your thinking!”

Creative learning meets artificial intelligence

For teams working with AI · Innovation and digital days

Many teams work with AI – but few use its full potential. This keynote combines proven creativity and memory techniques with modern AI tools: for faster thinking, better ideas and fewer mistakes. With your head AND the technology.

  • Better ideas through creative thinking structures
  • Time saved on planning, communication and content
  • Confident use of AI and more innovative power

People development

“Beat the forgetting curve!”

How to make training stick in everyday work

For people development · L&D and HR conferences

What good is the best training if everything is forgotten two days later? This keynote shows why so much training fizzles out – and how companies can anchor knowledge for the long term with brain-friendly learning.

  • More effective training and courses
  • Better retention through brain-friendly methods
  • Employee development with a lasting impact

Vocational training

“Learned, forgotten, failed?”

What apprentices were never taught about learning

For apprentice induction days · Trainer conferences · Chamber of commerce and crafts events

Many apprentices study hard and still retain little. It's rarely a lack of will: most of them were simply never shown how learning works. In a live demonstration, the audience experiences how even dry material can stick in just a few minutes – and how AI can become a learning partner rather than a shortcut.

  • Apprentices who know how to learn
  • More confidence at vocational school and in exams
  • A kick-start for the whole year group

Also available as a version for trainers: “Apprentices who love to learn!” – what trainers can do to make it happen.

What your audience experiences

Moving minds and bodies: the audience gets up, tries things out and amazes itself.

Humour with substance

Light and entertaining – yet well-founded, with insights from memory research.
