Florian has already achieved quite a bit in his life, despite the most difficult starting conditions. He is a German and European triathlon champion, an Ironman Hawaii finisher, and has been named Athlete of the Year three times.

His time in professional sports is behind him, and today he is the 2019 Speaker of the Year and a bestselling author. His works provide a "treasure map to personal strengths" and reveal why we're all capable of more than we think.
He is also a fitness economist and holds a master’s degree in sports psychology, health management and coaching.

Florian will tell us how he achieved his goals despite the most difficult circumstances and what drove him along the way. He will also share with us the important role the people around him played in this. But we'll also talk about how he dealt with it when people didn't believe in him.
He tells us how achieving his biggest goal at the time ended up being the "most pointless day of his life" and how important it is not to always try to please others.
We learn what values drive him and why "understanding" always gets the consolation prize for him – and "experience" the grand prize. We also discuss the most difficult decision of his life and how he dealt with it. He tells us that it takes courage to break free from the hamster wheel.
