Candice Grobler

Candice Grobler

Candice Grobler is the founder of Candid Collab, a systems-savvy community consultancy helping solo founders and stretched teams build community-led marketing engines that scale revenue.

After a CPTSD diagnosis and a “you’re unemployable” jab from a well-meaning manager, Candice left the cubicle grind to forge a new model: one where neuro-spicy, outside-the-norm entrepreneurs could thrive through mentorship, scrappy systems, and candid community.

Today, she’s a sought-after mentor and speaker known for transforming sticky-note chaos into streamlined workflows and turning feast-or-famine floundering into steady, soul-aligned revenue. Her live talks, workshops, and interviews blend radical candour with practical playbooks, because life’s too short to build someone else’s empire (or burn out building your own).

Candice has helped dozens of founders grow recurring revenue, reduce burnout, and build communities that market for them, without agency retainers, bro-marketing gloss, or a selling out.

Björn Freter

Björn Freter

Sagen, was Sache ist. Machen, was nötig ist.

Björn spricht über mutige Strategien jenseits klassischer Transformation, moderne Führung und Verantwortung in digitalen Zeiten. Seine Perspektive: Wandel beginnt mit Klarheit - nicht mit PowerPoint.
Statt alte Systeme mühsam zu modernisieren, setzt Björn mit Whiskey Tango Foxtrot auf substanzielle Veränderungsprozesse. Nach dem Exit von sum.cumo wurde alles hinterfragt - von Technologie bis Führung.
Heute steht Whiskey Tango Foxtrot für Klarheit, Verantwortung und echte Innovationsfreiheit. Kein Transformations-Sprech, sondern ehrliche Arbeit mit Wirkung -  kein Sprint, sondern ein Marathon.
Auch im Geschäftsmodell: Co-Investments statt Investorenlogik. Partner:innen mit Unternehmergeist statt Renditedruck: für gemeinsame Ziele und maximale Gestaltungsfreiheit.
Diesen Ansatz bringt Björn auch in andere Unternehmen: als Impulsgeber, Sparringspartner und Mitgestalter. Ob Neugründung oder Reorganisation, mit Björn entstehen aus Mut, Erfahrung und Klarheit zukunftsfähige Modelle, die wirken.
Als Speaker spricht Björn über mutige Strategien jenseits klassischer Transformation, unternehmerische Verantwortung und moderne Formen der Zusammenarbeit. Praxisnah, meinungsstark und mit klarem Blick für das, was Unternehmen heute (und morgen) wirklich weiterbringt.

Key Facts & Werdegang

Beginn als Angestellter: Startete seine Karriere in einer klassischen Angestelltenposition.

Aufstieg zum Angestellten-Manager: Übernahm früh Verantwortung und leitete strategische Projekte.

Gründung von sum.cumo: Björn baute ein Tech-Unternehmen auf, das zum Marktführer in der digitalen Transformation für Versicherungen und Lotterien wurde.
Prägende Unternehmenskultur: In zehn Jahren verließ keine einzige Person freiwillig das Unternehmen: ein Beleg für Björn’s Führungskompetenz.

Verkauf an Sapiens: Erfolgreicher Exit mit knapp 250 Mitarbeitenden an den US-Börsenkonzern Sapiens, den zweitgrößten Anbieter von Versicherungssoftware weltweit.
Reinvestition und neue Projekte: Aufbau der Emilia Rechtsschutz AG (Schweiz) und der Technologie-Unternehmen Whiskey Tango Foxtrot GmbH in Hamburg.

Mehrheitsgesellschafter: Führt heute zwei profitable Unternehmen mit über 70 Mitarbeitenden und klarer strategischer Ausrichtung.

Wer ist Björn?

Björn baut keine Luftschlösser, sondern tragfähige Modelle. Mit jahrzehntelanger Erfahrung in der Tech-Branche und einem klaren Verständnis für die Herausforderungen der digitalen Welt steht er für robuste Strategien und nachhaltigen Erfolg.

Seine Perspektiven:

Erfolg mit Substanz: Björn setzt auf belastbare Geschäftsmodelle statt kurzfristiger Effekte. Erfahrung trifft Pragmatismus.
Teamarbeit als Schlüssel: Langfristiger Erfolg basiert für ihn auf einer starken Teamdynamik, die von Vertrauen, Transparenz und Verantwortungsbewusstsein geprägt ist.
Technologie trifft Zweck: Kein Tech-Hype. Sondern sinnvoller Einsatz, der echten Mehrwert schafft- Für Kunden, Nutzer:innen und das ganze Team.
Digitalisierung in anspruchsvollen Branchen: Ob Versicherungen, Lotterien oder staatliche Akteure: Björn weiß, wie man Digitalisierung in sensiblen und komplexen Umfeldern wirkungsvoll umsetzt.

Warum Björn?
Björn vereint unternehmerische Tiefe mit einem feinen Gespür für Timing, Ton und Thema. Er spricht, wie er führt: klar, unprätentiös, mit Haltung - und immer mit einer Prise pointierter Gelassenheit.
Wer ihm zuhört, erlebt keine Folien-Schlacht, sondern kluge Impulse mit Substanz. Ernst in der Sache, leicht in der Form - und garantiert nie langweilig.
Und: Er redet nicht nur über Erfolg. Er hat ihn selbst gebaut.
Vom ersten Angestelltenjob über den erfolgreichen Exit bis zur Neugründung: Björn kennt die unternehmerische Realität von innen.
Was er sagt, hat Gewicht - weil es auf echter Erfahrung basiert.

Binod Shankar

Binod Shankar

Let’s get one thing straight: Binod is not a motivational speaker. He hates the label—and for good reason. Those talks? Big on hype, light on substance. Binod’s keynotes are the opposite: sharp, practical, and packed with hard truths your audience needs to hear.

His style? Think real-world experience meets no-nonsense advice, with a shot of humor and adventure. Whether he’s tackling leadership, career pivots, or personal growth, Binod delivers insights that stick—and push people to act.

Binod brings serious credibility. He’s held leadership roles at KPMG, EY, and Nakheel, where he helped raise the world’s largest convertible Islamic bond. Later, he co-founded Genesis, a financial training firm he scaled and sold to Kaplan, a $2 billion global powerhouse.

He’s a Chartered Accountant, a CFA charterholder, and holds a Level 7 Coaching & Mentoring qualification from ILM. He’s also the author of Let’s Get Real: 42 Tips for the Stuck Manager, and a regular guest on Bloomberg and CNBC.

But Binod’s not all business. He’s a hardcore adventurer who’s summited 13 mountains across three continents (including Kilimanjaro and Elbrus), cycled punishing routes like Manali to Leh (463 km), and completed multiple marathons. His personal grit shows up in every talk.

What makes him different? He simplifies the complex, keeps it real, and leaves audiences fired up to make meaningful changes. No fluff. No clichés. Just impact.

Bottom line: If you’re after a keynote speaker who challenges, connects, and delivers practical value—Binod Shankar is your guy.
