Keynote
Job, career, personal development, and purpose in life.
Shaping work as a meaningful source of energy · Growing personally without burning out · Developing resilience in times of change · Follow your own path with clarity and conviction.
That's what it's all about.
For many people today, work is less a source of meaning than of exhaustion. Career is confused with perseverance, success with overworking oneself, both often only achievable at the price of burnout. Only a small minority still experience a sustainable inner connection to their job; the vast majority just function, withdraw, or have mentally checked out.
Sick leave is skyrocketing, much of it due to mental health issues, and absenteeism and costs are rising. The usual responses to this are self-optimization, career myths, and appealing promises of salvation. This falls short and exacerbates the problem.
This presentation shows why work is always part of life and why personal development takes place not alongside work, but within it. It is a new perspective on performance, success, and professional growth that sustains without burning out.
"Let's embark on an enlightening and entertaining journey of discovery together: to the roots of our work and to the question of how we can discover and live our empowering values and fulfilling aspirations there – without becoming naive, but with new inner clarity." – Markus Gull
