EmPOWERED to succeed
This workshop is about acting as the director of your own life and taking on the role of responsibility, self-determination, and reflection. Another focus is on strengthening inner attitudes by reflecting on self-image and consciously shaping beliefs that serve as the basis for our actions and being. Participants will learn to improve their self-perception and impact, and understand how positive emotions and self-perception affect success and external perception.
A positive self-image is considered the foundation for a positive external image – those who see themselves will also be seen by others. Additionally, continuing education and skill development will be discussed as a learning and testing ground for future skills and successes. Finally, the workshop will address the transformation of power relationships and the active use of organizational dynamics.
The workshop includes keynote speeches, dialogs and reflections in small groups as well as networking and exchange in plenary sessions.

Global Head of Communications, Rentschler Biopharma
Between Cultures, Beyond Limits: Empowerment as a Way of Being
A personal journey through identity, reinvention and finding purpose- across borders and beyond expectations.
In this heartfelt talk, Dr. Latika Bhonsle-Deeng recounts her journey from a childhood in India to her PhD in Germany – navigating personal losses, professional reinvention and the lessons she has learned from living and working between cultures.
With honesty and reflection, she explores what it means to step out of inherited systems – and shape a life that is aligned with both passion and possibility. Latika invites us to reimagine empowerment not as a destination or a title, but as an mindset – one grounded in self-awareness, courage and continuous growth.
Drawing from her experience in science, journalism, consulting and global communication, she offers a quiet but powerful reminder: empowerment is not given. It is a way of being – a lens through which we see ourselves, our path and our potential. This session will encourage participants to reflect on their own journey, embrace reinvention and find strength in their unique story – wherever they begin and wherever they leads.
