Top Keynote Speaker Erlangen: Tim S. Tabrizi
The strategic impetus for your event in Erlangen
My name is Tim S. Tabrizi. As Group CEO & Chairman of the Board of infoteam Software AG in Bubenreuth near Erlangen and former board member of WS Audiology (formerly Siemens Audiology), I have delivered over 350 keynote speeches to executives from SAP, Volkswagen, Henkel, and Kuraray – from Frankfurt to Tokyo to Dubai. My focus: Accountability – the art of making decisions and bearing the consequences. This area of expertise combines 28 years of professional experience, including over 20 years in leadership positions, with practical experience on stage. As a specialist author, I regularly publish in media such as "Arbeit und Arbeitsrecht" (Labor and Employment Law) – on topics including toxic leadership and decision-making culture. What motivates me: I don't want to entertain, I want to inspire.

Bundled expertise
My cabinet of experts for your success
Behind every one of my keynotes lies not only my over 20 years of leadership experience, but also the combined intelligence of a 35-member expert pool. As part of Ihr Coaching Institut I draw on the exclusive expertise of luminaries from the worlds of business, sport and science when preparing your event. This synergy allows me to focus on my core topics Accountability and decision-making culture with a depth that goes far beyond conventional motivational speeches.
The three pillars of my network
Strategic toughness, mental sovereignty, scientific depth
Strategic toughness: Access to the expertise of top decision-makers such as Heinrich von Pierer (Ex-Siemens CEO).
Mental sovereignty: Methodical exchange with professionals for pressure situations such as Urs Meier (FIFA referee).
Neuroscientific depth: Scientific foundation by experts such as Dr Carlos Davidovich (Harvard Medical School Affiliate).
You book me as a speaker - and at the same time benefit from the swarm intelligence of one of the most exclusive coaching networks in Europe. I guarantee you impulses that are scientifically sound, economically tested and tried and tested at the highest level.
What do I bring to the table as a keynote speaker?
What companies take away: concrete impulses for accountability, decisiveness, and leadership – not a motivational speech. I have developed this skill over 20 years on stage: in front of DAX board members, at Kuraray Europe in Hattersheim, and before sales teams at Siemens Healthineers in Erlangen. I tailor each keynote individually – to your audience, your industry, and the strategic questions currently driving your company. References: I would be happy to put you in direct contact.
Core topic: ACCOUNTABILITY & DECISION-MAKING CULTURE
My specialty as a keynote speaker for 20 years: How leaders take responsibility, make decisions, and deal with the consequences.

Tailored to your needs in Erlangen
How do I make your event unique as a keynote speaker?
Each of my keynotes is created anew - for your audience, your industry, your goals. Before I go on stage, I hold briefings with your team, analyse your challenges and develop content that is a perfect fit for your event. The result: not a standard presentation, but a keynote that speaks directly to your participants. At Siemens Healthineers, I focused on decision-making culture in matrix organisations. At Kuraray Europe, the focus was on accountability in intercultural teams. At Porsche, it was about leadership under pressure to change. Each time a different focus - always based on my core topic.
Expert through and through:
My expertise doesn't come from books, but from 28 years of professional experience – over 20 of them in leadership positions – in medical technology, telecommunications, and software. Currently, as Group CEO & Chairman of the Board of infoteam Software AG, I am responsible for the strategic transformation of an established IT company. Previously, as a board member at WS Audiology (formerly Siemens' audiology business), I led teams through restructuring and oversaw international expansions. This knowledge informs every keynote address – with concrete, real-world examples.
Engaging the audience with charisma:
Before every keynote, I invest several hours in research: I read your annual reports, talk to your contacts and analyse the challenges in your industry. This enables me to give examples on stage that your audience will recognise immediately.
Immerse yourself in a new world:
My keynotes are not frontal lectures. I work with targeted questions, live reflections and moments in which the audience itself becomes active. The feedback from event managers like Maria Serova (Siemens): „The audience was captivated from start to finish.“
Closer to reality:
The test of a good keynote is not the applause, but what happens afterwards. My goal is for managers to make different decisions the next day. That's why I end every keynote with concrete impulses for action - not abstract motivational slogans, but actionable next steps.
Finding the right keynote speaker
I specialise in accountability and decision-making culture - ideal for management conferences, kick-offs, strategy meetings and change processes. If you are looking for a speaker who not only entertains your audience, but makes them think and act, we should talk. A quick phone call is all it takes to find out if I'm the right person for your event. No sales pitches - just an honest exchange.

In 2017, I received the Best Speaker Award at the BME Symposium, and in 2021, I received the same award from OptiBuy. What motivates me is not the applause, but the conversations afterward: when leaders tell me what changes they have implemented.
