meet interesting people
from science, education,
business and the arts
Alfred Tolle Alfred Tolle is founder and chairman of Wisdom
Together e.V. His international experience as a
journalist and executive in large media and
internet companies such as Bertelsmann, Lycos
and Google in Asia, Europe and North America has
led him to the realisation that getting in touch with
the inner wisdom is becoming more and more
important. His commitment and the exchange
with people at Wisdom Together today enriches
his work as a leadership coach.
In the current process of change, many of us are now ready to act, to
make a concrete contribution - we want to "get involved".
How do we find our own orientation in the overwhelming flood of
information, urgencies and persuading offers to participate?
We have put together a wide range of lectures, workshops, panel
discussions and room for meeting others.
Our speakers from various fields of science, business, education,
social affairs, art and culture are already putting their ideas into
practice. They show how they have been involved so far and are open
to dialogue, exchange and reflection.
Let's question together what “getting involved” means for each of us.
The clearer our motivation, the more powerful we can act.
We invite you to join us on this exciting journey.
