Speaking

Inspiring. Genuine. To the point.

As an ethics expert, I make complex ideas accessible. My talks combine academic depth with practical relevance – and create space for reflection. Whether keynote, workshop or panel: I design formats that leave a lasting impact.

Talks that resonate

When people hear “ethics,” they often think of abstract theory or wagging fingers.

I think of genuine engagement, unexpected perspectives – and an audience that starts to reflect.

My keynotes bring ethics into the here and now: clear, vivid, impactful.

I speak about things that may seem complex at first glance – and bring them to the stage with clarity, vivid examples, and a dash of humour.

Technology & Ethics

Technology promises efficiency, innovation – and at times, even justice. But behind the fascination lies a risk: that we begin to reduce the human, or try to replace them altogether.

I explore the ethical fault lines of artificial intelligence: when we delegate thinking to machines, when creativity becomes mere calculation, and when communication shifts from human to human to bot to bot.

I show what happens when we don’t just use technology, but let it decide what matters, and who matters.

Sustainability & Integrity

Sustainability is hailed as a future-proof ideal – but only as long as it doesn’t hurt.
In tougher times, it suddenly becomes negotiable. It gets rebranded, scaled back, or quietly buried.

I shed light on the mechanisms behind this shift: on greenwashing and greenhushing, on backpedaling, backbone, and promises that hold up to reality.

And on the question of how sustainability can stand firm when the tailwind turns to headwind.
