Keynotes
Keynote by Ida Thyrring:
Built For Leadership. Discover What Was Never Missing.
First-time leaders know how to do the work. What they don’t expect is how overwhelming it can feel to lead it. The sudden weight of responsibility, tougher decisions, and rising uncertainty can blur direction and stall momentum. Many suffer in silence – assuming everyone else knows what they’re doing. In a world of fast disruption, constant change and high expectations, Ida’s keynote draws on her work as a close advisor to executive and first time leaders, performance coach and competitive CrossFit athlete to show leaders how to cut through mental noise, regain clarity, and make strong decisions with confidence. Backed by performance psychology and real-world leadership experience, she equips leaders to steady themselves under pressure and lead with greater ease, focus, and impact.
Key takeaways
Access your innate leadership potential – tap into the natural capacity for clarity, direction and sound decision-making.
Lead with confidence and a steady hand – make clear decisions and inspire trust, even in uncertainty and fast-changing situations.
Deliver stronger team outcomes, faster – leading with clear thinking and wholehearted presence inspires the team to do the same.
Keynote by Ida Thyrring:
Built for Pressure. Unlock Team Potential.
In fast-paced, high-performance environments, collaboration often breaks down not because people lack skill, intention or ambition, but because pressure clutters thinking. Conversations become personal, feedback turns defensive, and teams lose momentum just when they need it most. In this keynote, Ida Thyrring reframes collaboration as a natural human capacity that re-emerges when mental noise drops. Drawing on her experience working with teams in high-growth organizations and competing in an elite CrossFit environment, Ida shows how clarity under pressure unlocks trust, creativity, willingness and shared ownership. She explores what a high-performing team culture actually feels like (focused, direct, naturally resilient and surprisingly energizing) and why teams perform better when dedication to results is paired with enjoyment in the work itself.
Key takeaways
Clear minds, strong collaboration – learn to reset quickly, reduce defensiveness and contribute from a constructive state of mind.
Clean conversation under pressure – enable direct feedback, shared focus and faster alignment.
Better results through shared energy – unlock team potential by combining accountability, trust and genuine enjoyment in the task at hand.

Built for This. The Secret Behind a High-Performance Mentality.
In an always-on, results-driven world, many capable people find themselves working harder but accessing less of their true potential. They hit an invisible ceiling: even with the right ambition and strive, mental noise, self-doubt, perfectionism, and fear of failure quietly blur judgment and drain confidence. They hesitate, overthink, or overwork – creating stress and internal friction that stalls growth and limits results. The talent is there, but the next level remains just out of reach. In this keynote, Ida Thyrring offers a refreshing shift away from hustle-driven performance toward a calmer, clearer way of working that unlocks productivity, confidence and lasting growth from the inside out. Drawing on her experience as a sociologist, performance coach, and competitive CrossFit athlete, Ida shows how to cut through mental noise and step into a state of calm, clarity, and confidence – this, so skills and potential can flow freely and consistently.
Key takeaways
Access calm, focused performance for all staff – reduce the mental noise that blocks productivity and creativity.
Unlock Potential – shape and create what has been out of reach, turning latent talent into visible impact.
Increase Energy and Output – shift effort-heavy busyness to meaningful progress, creativity and momentum.
