Testimonials from our Leadership Dialogues

The Leadership Dialogues are an exciting format for exchanging ideas on highly relevant topics with other executives. Through the input of an expert, theoretical input is not neglected in addition to practical experience. The focus is on a joint exchange, which is why learning from each other is a key success factor of the events."


Nina Lehmann, Project Manager Labor Market and Education, Metropolregion Rhein-Neckar GmbH


The Leadership Dialogue is a wonderfully open and modern format for anyone interested in current developments and challenges in the context of leadership. It allows one to dive into the suggestions of the respective expert with a group and, in the process get to know different perspectives and thoughts on the topic through dialogue and direct exchange with the other participants. The event has always been valuable for me so far, and I will gladly come back!"


Constantin Klein, Global Product Lead Microsoft, Syntax Systems GmbH & Co. KG
