Speaker Cherno Jobatey enters the stage with a smile that oscillates somewhere between world politics and small talk. He looks like he does on television, only more energetic. With his smile, which gets wider and wider, somewhere between “I made Chancellor Merkel laugh” and “I know how to convince mothers-in-law”, Cherno Jobatey captivates his audience, whether in the amphitheater or at an intimate dinner speech.

These keynotes and talks are not dusty fact throwing machines with fully typed PowerPoint presentations. They are a firework display of information with pictures and interactive activities. Cherno Jobatey stands on stage, speaks, speeds up, starts shouting, runs off. He stops, points into the audience, and starts to dance.
Cherno Jobatey comes across less like a speaker and more like a director who packs great productions into catchy stories. And of course, the obligatory quotes from great philosophers are a must. But they are refined with wisdom from the present day and insights from the Hollywood world that Jobatey learned during his time there.
Jobatey delivers all of this with such casual effortlessness that you almost believe he invented it himself.

- Break through boundaries! Recognizing your own invisible borders and being able to achieve things that you perhaps didn’t even know existed? This is where Jobatey becomes a one-man wake-up call! His mission? To hurl people out of the comfort zone in which many have become too comfortable.
- How to understand the USA? Why did Americans vote for Trump? Have they gone mad, or are there other truths? How important is global politics? In other words, something on which a global world depends?
