Director of the Steinbeis-Transfer-Institute (STI)

The German Speakers Association e.v. (GSA) and the Steinbeis Hochschule Berlin (SBH) have founded a course of studies, the certification course with the diploma Professional Speaker GSA (SHB). As the newly announced director of the Steinbeis Transfer Institut I am responsible for the curriculum and the selection of lecturers. A key position in which I take pleasure in integrating my entire experience.

No matter whether you are talking in business situations in front of executives, colleagues or business partners or whether you appear on stage in your own interest, the GSA conveys the 8 core competences to you, which you need for an unforgettable performance. This includes among others specialist knowledge and experience, presentation and performance, marketing, PR und sales as well as business management, organising yourself and your office.

We have succeeded in getting the best of this field as speakers for the new course “Professional Speaker”. Besides excellent personalities from the speaker genre also other experts give away insider tips, among others from the field of faxes, graphic design and search machine optimisation. All of them open their treasure chests for you containing many golden insider tips for an absolutely professional performance.

After a successful examination the graduates will be honoured by the GSA Convention and receive the official title “Professional Speaker GSA (SHB)”.

Here the advantages at a glance:

Professionalizing your presentation business
Optimization of your stage performance
Optimization of Marketing and Management
Exchange of experience and knowledge transfer on the highest level
Certificate of state-approved university
Quality award for strengthening of the positioning and awareness level
More assignments and higher fees

It is certain that after a one-year-study all options will be available for you and maybe one day you will belong to the elite of German speakers. You have established a solid basis. On the one hand side as you have proven it in black and white by obtaining your university diploma and on the other hand because you have internalized the ingredients for a modern and sustainable speech.
