Keynotes
Achieve the seemingly impossible with the right mindset!
What does it mean to overcome boundaries, step out of your comfort zone and gain the courage to take on big challenges?
1368 km, 56000 vertical meters, 124 passes, 26 days. My second cycling record. But the numbers represent far more than just a sporting goal.
It was a matter of implementing an idea in the shortest possible time, finding sponsors, building a team of five people and managing the organization and logistics. And then I also had to train for the cycling record!
In these times of constant change, pressure and stress, how do you get everything under one roof and still perform at your best, both physically and mentally?
In my talks, I use my experiences from cycling and my unusual life story to explain what it means to overcome failure and still get up again, to motivate a team to successfully strive for seemingly impossible goals.
With a lot of authenticity and approachability, wit and pragmatic tips, I convey a story that touches every audience.
I provide practical tools on how everyone can achieve their own goals - whether professional, personal or sporting.
The focal points of the keynote:
- My story of never giving up in search of my own purpose, despite pressure, failures and obstacles (from wanting to be the next James Bond, to a failed professional cycling career, to management consultancy, midlife crisis at 30, to living my dream)
- My most recent cycling record: crossing all 124 Swiss passes in 26 days, despite obstacles like roadworks that forced us to turn back, bad weather and unpredictable challenges like the fact that sometimes we didn't know where the pass actually was. (These challenges can easily be transferred to business challenges)
- The 6 key factors to achieve even seemingly impossible goals (Purpose, Potential, Power, Perspective, People, Path) - including questions for the audience to reflect on their own goals and challenges.
Key findings, particularly with regard to changes:
- You need to know your WHY in order to stay motivated and pursue your goal.
- A team is absolutely crucial to your success.
- The journey itself is already a success, as you learn and grow through the experience.
