Guest speaker: Roman Schweizer
A professional soccer player at a management consultancy? One or two of us had certainly wondered about the announcement of our guest speaker on the topic of “innovation”. Right at the start of the event, however, it quickly became clear to us: For Roman Schweizer, entrepreneurial innovation is nothing other than peak human performance.
As part of our Xchange Xperts session in April, we were privileged to be introduced by Roman Schweizer to the world of innovation in professional sports. In his rousing presentation, the parallels to business entrepreneurship quickly became clear to us. Only about 3% of clubs and companies succeed in generating growth through real innovation. This only works if “perceived” performance limits are actively broken. “Thinking outside the box” thus becomes the key factor for success.
Even though many colleagues could only participate online due to Corona, Roman’s enthusiasm quickly swept over all of us. Because as you always say, dear Roman: “No barrier can stop us because every barrier gives way to decisiveness and who trusts in his star stays with his attitude.”
We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your speech!
