Talks & keynotes

I talk about what I have built, sold and messed up myself.

No motivational show, no textbook slides. Three topics, each from my own business – for stages, company events and workshops in the region Munich · Rosenheim · Salzburg and beyond. In German or English.

Tobi Deckert speaking at FuckUp Night Salzburg
Three topics

What I bring.

Keynote · 30–45 minutes

From idea to product – and rethinking manufacturer DNA

How an idea becomes a product you can build, sell and defend – and why most retailers never become manufacturers. With my own mistakes from ShredRack, BOLSTair and Apres Allstars, not with slides from a textbook.

Suitable for: Business days, associations, start-up centres, trade fairs

Keynote 45 minutes · or half-day workshop

AI in the company: using it efficiently, for the whole workforce

Not a vision of the future, but Monday morning: where AI really saves time in a business today, how to bring employees along instead of scaring them, and what is better left alone. In the workshop, with the participants’ own processes.

Suitable for: SME workforces, management teams, trade guilds

Keynote · 45–60 minutes

Productivity in everyday work: tools, methods, output

Pareto, Pomodoro, Eisenhower – and what really sticks from Tony Robbins, “The One Thing” and the seven habits of highly effective people. Personal, practical, with examples from my own life as an entrepreneur. Most recently given at Intersport.

Suitable for: Teams, sales teams, apprentices, managers
