ESPRIX Forum 2016: "Excellent - why not!"
On March 10, 2016, the ESPRIX Forum for Excellence will once again take place in Lucerne. Renowned speakers from business and society, not least the presentation of the ESPRIX Swiss Award for Excellence 2016, form the fixed points of the program, which will be presented in the KKL Luzern.
Those who strive for perfection can achieve excellence. At the same time, there is no silver bullet. That is why at the ESPRIX Forum, excellent speakers always address the topic of "excellence" in the context of the Swiss economy and society. The following keynote speakers, among others, have been secured for the upcoming Forum:
Katrin Theodoli
"Success is not a question of gender, but of passion!", this is the maxim of Katrin Theodoli, owner of Magnum Marine, the manufacturer of probably the most expensive, elegant and fastest luxury yachts.
Cristián Gálvez
Expert for personality, motivation, effect: He will show the audience that behind every excellent success story there are patterns and structures of the so-called hero's journey.
Raul Krauthausen
founder of the "Social Heroes" campaign, will, as announced, "break through barriers" and "just do it". He suffers from the so-called brittle bone disease and is dependent on a wheelchair.
Sabine Holbrook
"Power of Excellence" will be the common thread running through von's presentation. For the female racer in the Superbike class - a classic male domain - there is only one thing for her: "Full throttle".
