How far in advance should event organizers reach out?

To ensure availability alongside my active executive mandates, I recommend reaching out 4 to 6 months in advance for conference speaking engagements or corporate workshops.

Speaking

I provide keynotes and workshops in both German and English, drawing on my experience working across international markets in Switzerland, Germany, and Northern Europe.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What makes your speaking style different from typical marketing "keynotes"? I don’t speak as a professional theorist; I speak as an active operator. Every talk is rooted in the "Notes" from my current mandates as a fractional executive. I trade broad industry buzzwords for practical, "in-the-trenches" perspectives that the audience can implement the very next day.

2. In which languages do you deliver your presentations? I am comfortable presenting in both German and English. Having worked across international markets including Switzerland, Germany, the Netherlands, and Scandinavia, I can adapt my delivery to suit the linguistic and cultural context of your specific audience.

3. Do you tailor your presentations to specific industry regulations? Yes. A core part of my expertise lies in regulated environments (Healthcare, MedTech, and Dental). I understand that marketing in these sectors isn't just about growth—it’s about compliance, trust, and patient safety. I tailor every talk to respect the legal and ethical boundaries of the specific industry.

4. What are your most requested speaking topics for 2026? Current high-demand topics include:

System Design in Regulated Markets: How to build marketing engines that are both high-performing and compliant.
The AI Discovery Shift: Moving from keyword-chasing to "Contextual Marketing" for the LLM era.
Fractional Leadership: Navigating organizational transitions and breaking through "institutional fog."

5. How far in advance should we reach out for a speaking engagement? Because I prioritize my active fractional mandates and board roles, I only accept a limited number of speaking engagements each year. I recommend reaching out 4 to 6 months in advance to ensure alignment with my operational schedule and to allow time for deep customization of the content for your event.
