Keynotes for executives in Bamberg
More than just a keynote speech
Looking for an experienced keynote speaker in Bamberg to make your event a success? With over 350 keynotes in 17 countries and references from corporations such as SAP, Siemens and PwC, I am your partner for keynotes that move, inspire and have a lasting effect. As a Franconian by choice and Group CEO of infoteam Software AG in Bubenreuth, I combine deep regional roots in Upper Franconia with international expertise. Whether digitalisation, leadership, innovation or change management – I deliver tailored, practical input for your company in the Bamberg region.
Who I am
The strategic impetus for your event in Bamberg and Upper Franconia
My name is Tim S. Tabrizi. As Group CEO of infoteam Software AG in Bubenreuth – just 50 kilometres from Bamberg – and a former member of the Executive Board of WS Audiology (formerly Siemens’ audiology business), I know the entrepreneurial challenges of the Upper Franconia region first-hand. With over 20 years of leadership experience and a Global Executive MBA from IESE Business School, I bring perspectives to the stage that go far beyond theory. My keynotes combine personal experience from the boardroom with current research – practical, well-founded and directly applicable for your organisation in Bamberg.
Presentations that are tailored to you and your needs
More interaction and commitment from your employees
Lasting inspiration and motivation for the audience
Combined expertise
My panel of experts for your success
Behind each of my keynotes is not only more than 20 years of leadership experience, but also the combined intelligence of a pool of 35 experts. As part of Ihr Coaching Institut I draw on the expertise of specialists from business, sport and science when preparing your event. This synergy allows me to underpin my core topics of accountability and decision-making culture with a depth that goes far beyond conventional motivational talks.
The three pillars of my network
Strategic clarity, mental composure, scientific depth
Strategic clarity: Access to the expertise of top decision-makers such as Heinrich von Pierer (former Siemens CEO).
Mental composure: Methodical exchange with professionals in high-pressure situations such as Urs Meier (FIFA referee).
Scientific depth: Scientific grounding from experts such as Dr Carlos Davidovich (Harvard Medical School Affiliate).
You book me as a speaker – and at the same time benefit from the experience of a network of 35 coaches and specialists. The insights are scientifically grounded and proven in practice.
What do I bring to the table as a keynote speaker?
What companies take away: concrete input on accountability, decisiveness, and leadership – not a motivational show. 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 speciality as a keynote speaker for 20 years: How leaders take responsibility, make decisions, and deal with the consequences.
Related topics
Leadership
As an experienced executive and coach, I share essential knowledge for today's leaders, highlight specific requirements and provide practical tips and methods for successful team leadership. My approach encourages reflection on and development of your personal leadership style, supported by a practical presentation style.
Resilience
Success depends not only on utilising one's own strengths, but above all on consistency and dealing with losses. I offer food for thought and shed light on new aspects of crises to encourage reflection. The aim is to support you in developing inner strength and effectively utilising hidden potential in crises.
Change Management
As a change expert, I use well-founded, lively presentations to make you a change-ready professional. We look at how to embrace change successfully, overcome resistance and adapt to new trends – at the level of the organisation and of each employee. This knowledge is valuable to any organisation.
Innovation
Anyone who wants to move forward has to keep reinventing themselves. Drawing on my experience on executive boards, I show you paths to innovation, combined with inspiring stories and strategies for your company. The aim is for you to implement ideas effectively. I teach how the balance of creativity and strategy drives growth so that you can use this dynamic to your advantage.

Tailor-made for companies in Bamberg and Upper Franconia
How I prepare for your event
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 of infoteam Software AG, I am responsible for the strategic transformation of an established IT company. I am also the owner and managing director of Ihr Coaching Institut. Previously, as a member of the Executive Board at WS Audiology (formerly Siemens’ audiology business), I led teams through restructuring and oversaw international expansion. This knowledge informs every keynote address – with concrete examples from real-world practice.
Holding attention:
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 one-way 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.
20 years on stage in front of top decision-makers
Our company faced major challenges in the area of digitalisation. We were looking for an expert who could show us the way. Mr Tabrizi not only impressively presented his expertise, but also gave us practical tips and strategies to successfully master the digital transformation. A worthwhile investment for any company!
– Laura Kullmann, Head of IT, Porsche
I was impressed by the positive energy of the speaker, Mr Tabrizi. His personal stories, case studies and experiences showed me that you can draw strength even in difficult times. His practical tips helped me to tackle my own challenges with more confidence and determination. Thank you very much for this great experience!
– Stefan Moser, Participant, Henkel
The presentation was simply authentic, very clear and impressive! Tim's deep insights and words captivated our audience from start to finish. His expertise and passion for the subject were obvious and left a lasting impression. He seems to have been born to be on stage. We are already looking forward to the next time!
– Maria Serova, Event Manager, Siemens
As a manager, I was looking for a speaker who would motivate and inspire my team. Mr Tabrizi did just that and much more in a two-hour presentation yesterday! His experience in management and leadership opened up new perspectives and encouraged us to do more. I can only warmly recommend him as an authentic keynote speaker!
– Thomas Ruther, Managing Director, Pertzold
Our company has a long tradition of error avoidance and risk aversion. But thanks to keynote speaker Tim S. Tabrizi, we have learnt to see mistakes as an opportunity for further development. His positive approach to an active culture of learning from mistakes has encouraged our team to be more open and try out new ideas. We are infinitely grateful to him for this and look forward to working with him in the future!
– Michael Lehmann, Team Leader, T-Systems
Exactly what your event needs:
Over 60% of my keynote speaker engagements come from companies that have already booked me – for other teams, other locations, other topics. The reason: I don't just deliver a good keynote, I understand what your event really needs. From the initial enquiry to the follow-up, I work closely with your team. You don't just get a speaker, but a partner who wants to make your event a success as a keynote speaker.
Thoughts that stay with you:
What participants say after my keynotes:
“The next day, I had the first of the difficult conversations I had been putting off for months.” – Participant, Henkel management conference. “The keynote triggered a discussion that we should have had long ago.” – Managing Director, SME.
That is my benchmark: not standing ovations, but change in everyday life. If managers tell me weeks later what they are doing differently – then the keynote was a success.
Trust through structure: the expert network
As Group CEO, keynote speaker and strategic adviser, I work to the highest quality standards and with uncompromising transparency. My work is embedded in the expertise of Ihr Coaching Institut – a network of 35 specialised coaches and mentors. This institutional backing allows me to ground topics such as accountability and leadership in the methodological depth of an established institute.
You therefore benefit from my operational experience as Group CEO of infoteam Software AG and from the combined expertise of this network.

Whether it is an annual conference at the Bamberg congress centre, a leadership summit at one of the city's major employers or a corporate event in the World Heritage city, every keynote is tailored to your goals. As a speaker who has lived and worked in Franconia for years, I know the local economic structure: from long-established mid-sized companies and automotive suppliers to the growing tech scene.
When you book a keynote speaker in Bamberg, you bring in expertise that makes seemingly complex topics understandable. I meet your audience where they are and take them on a journey that is digital, analogue and, above all, human.
A presentation on leadership and strategy: More than inspiration
A keynote at decision-maker level must not be dry theory. It has to inspire and be concrete. For companies in Bamberg and Upper Franconia in particular – a region shaped by innovative mid-sized businesses and world market leaders – you need impulses that connect strategic thinking with practical implementation. A keynote speaker who knows your industry makes the difference.
My keynotes are practical. They combine sound business knowledge with engaging delivery so that the messages land. I don't offer standard solutions, but ideas your team in Bamberg can put into practice.
Digitalisation and AI: Keynotes that have an impact at conferences in Bamberg
Digital transformation and artificial intelligence are the topics of our time. Whether at a conference in Bamberg, a corporate event in Upper Franconia or an academic symposium, I show how digitalisation and AI are changing everyday business and which concrete steps your company should take now.
My keynotes are designed to take away the fear of change. A competent keynote speaker with a lasting approach leaves no questions open. Transformation becomes tangible. Wherever I speak in Germany, my goal is that your guests say after the event: “That moved us forward.”
Enquire now – no obligation

Let's discuss together how to shape your keynote. Whether you join remotely or meet me on site: as your keynote speaker, I look forward to preparing your event with you.
My path to becoming a keynote speaker
Alongside 28 years of professional experience, including over 20 years in leadership roles – currently as Group CEO of infoteam Software AG, previously as a member of the Executive Board at WS Audiology (formerly Siemens’ audiology business) – I have been a keynote speaker since 2006. What began as occasional presentations for industry colleagues has become my calling: to communicate complex leadership topics in a way that resonates with everyday practice. Today, I speak to DAX board members, representatives of medium-sized businesses, and international teams – from Frankfurt to Tokyo. 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.
Publications & Expertise
I share my knowledge not only on stage. As a specialist author, I write regularly for publications such as “Arbeit und Arbeitsrecht” – on topics including toxic leadership, decision-making culture and accountability in organisations.
Selected publications:
“Everyone needs a coach” – Ihr Coaching Institut
“Recognising and acting on toxic leadership” – Arbeit und Arbeitsrecht
