Originally a mathematician & physicist at the interface between philosophy & psychology, now a motivational psychologist & neuroscientist, AI & future manager: as a neo-generalist, she taps into valuable synergies from her rich repertoire.

Monika Herbstrith-Lappe is THE expert for healthy performance & resilience of people, teams & organizations in the era of artificial intelligence. For a smart life-in-balance: on the one hand balance between professional & private areas of life and on the other hand balance between the joy of creating & recharging – quality of life & happiness in private & professional life.

A master of the interplay between humor and seriousness, she sees herself as a maker of possibilities: on the one hand, she inspires people to discover amazing opportunities in the midst of difficulties. On the other hand, she encourages people to make the best of them. Referring to Robert Musil’s sense of possibility, she appeals: “Let’s create possible realities and use our real possibilities.”

As an enthusiastic extreme diver, she opens up a whole “sea of possibilities”. Her sea of possibilities connects thematic islands and fits into your thematic landscape in a formative way. An invitation to a change of perspective for more possibilities and thus more opportunities for success. A “sea of confidence” for you! Her credo as a future manager: “The future needs confidence.” And her promise: “Achieve more with joyful ease”

She is the author of books such as “leistungsstark & lebensfroh – Hochwirksame Impulse für nachhaltigen Erfolg, heiter-souveräne Leichtigkeit & empathische Lebensfreude”, “Aufblühen statt Ausglühen – raus aus dem Stress & rein in den Flow”, and “Tauchen im Ozean des Lebens: Taucherfahrungsschätze für den privaten und beruflichen Alltag”.
