Keynote by Christian Gansch:
Christian uses the strategies of symphonic processes, which are significantly more complex and defined than is usually presented to the public. A functioning orchestra is a prime example of efficient management, leadership and conflict-solving strategies. No other group has such highly qualified individuals working together on a daily basis for hours on end and in such close quarters. How does this lively interplay of forces function in terms of “listening to each other – acting together – learning from each other”? How many soloists can one team handle? What are each person's freedoms and areas of responsibility? What decisions are brought about and how does communication take place? What voice takes priority when? How are management and team ideas and visions developed, and how are they implemented in practice?
His keynotes do not have an educational feel. Executives and employees are looking for inspiration and motivation. In this way, knowledge can become realisation.
