...I had the pleasure of enjoying your keynote speech at the 2019 annual conference of SchuleWirtschaft Bayern in Amberg. And I mean "enjoy" in exactly the same way, because I found it fascinating and extremely interesting how you got to the heart of your research findings and conclusions. This has made many a "communication problem" comprehensible and explainable to me. In the meantime, I have been able to use my knowledge of the differences between generations in a number of discussions about different views on "professional ethics", commitment or "work-life balance"."
