Sebastian Wächter

"Barrier-free in the mind - this is how Change works!"

One second, one wrong decision while hiking. Neck fracture. Diagnosis: cervical vertebrae cross-section. 95% of the muscles are paralyzed, forever. The most radical change of all. Sebastian Wächter overcomes this stroke of fate. He becomes a national league wheelchair rugby player, completes his master's degree in business mathematics and works as a stock analyst. Sebastian Wächter doesn't just talk about change, he has experienced and mastered it himself. He now helps many companies to get their change processes rolling and leads by example. When it comes to diversity, Sebastian talks from the inside as a long-time, severely disabled employee. In the area of team building, he brilliantly contributes his extraordinary experience as a wheelchair rugby player. Sebastian encourages people to take matters into their own hands and shape the future, despite all the uncertainties.
