Mag. Teresa Adler
Mental Trainer in a Business Context | Keynote Speaker | Teresa Adler e.U.
Crisis and opportunity are two sides of the same coin. Despite this, we prefer to ignore this, as crises are always unpleasant, painful, or expensive. However, what if we actively exploited crises, instead of waiting to see at a later date if something good was also concealed in them?
Theresa Adler will give an inspiring keynote speech at starlim tech.day.
