The elite of the speaker scene - 11th Cologne Knowledge Forum.

On Friday, September 21, 2018, Europe's leading speakers agency Speakers Excellence is hosting the 11th Cologne Knowledge Forum. For a whole day, the focus will be on motivation, success, future trends, marketing, and leadership at the Maritim Hotel Cologne. The following speakers will be present at the 11th Knowledge Forum: Christoph Keese is a journalist and trained economist. And incredibly successful! He successfully transformed the media company Axel Springer into an internet company - and few European companies can boast as many successes in digitization. In his talk "Silicon Germany - Understand, Don't Just Copy," he will share how the working methods of Silicon Valley can also fit into the German market and, above all, how German internet companies can keep up. And he must know, as he has lived and worked there. Another highlight is speaker Ranga Yogeshwar. Few people are unfamiliar with the friendly journalist and son of an Indian engineer. He initially studied physics, then worked at CERN in Geneva. Since 1987, he has been active as a moderator, author, and speaker, explaining the world to people. His books are bestsellers, and he is one of the best and most well-known science journalists in Germany. In Cologne, he will reveal to his audience how to deal with new things, as our society is constantly changing. Philip Keil is anything but ordinary. With more than 8,000 flight hours and thousands of take-offs and landings on four continents, he has experienced a lot - even a flight that changed his life. Keil knows how to captivate his audience with breathtaking stories. His talk will focus on how to lead a team correctly even in critical situations and, above all, what makes a perfect team. Because in difficult moments, nothing is more important than a reliable team. He is a true communication professional: Prof. Dr. Veit Etzold began his career as a media manager at Bertelsmann and then assisted international companies in communicating the right story with the appropriate strategies. The best-selling author (thriller) manages to transport exciting storytelling into corporate communication. This is also what his talk "Storytelling - How to Get Past the Doorman in the Brain with the Right Story" will be about. Participants can also look forward to speakers Dietmar Dahmen, Andreas Buhr, Jörg Hawlitzeck, Ralf Schmitt, Matthias Jackel, and Helena Felixberger.
