In a small backstreet of Tokyo lives a man named Aki, a 78-year-old former chef. Aki spent most of his life trying to perfectly cook the rice he buys from his friend Mato. He's been at it for 57 years now and still searches for ways to improve his cooking methods. There is probably not too much anybody else could tell Aki about cooking this specific type of rice.

When it comes to his process, Aki's understanding is unrivaled. After years of trial and glorious error, Marijn could be called the Aki of Domain-Driven Design, due to his extensive background in both programming and strategy. He uses this experience to show teams and organizations how to recognize and act on problems and opportunities in an autonomous, self-learning fashion.

Bringing an objective outsider’s view to the table, Marijn uses today's challenges of your organization to make your people truly aware of their environment.
Not by nudging and pushing them towards the final goal, but by offering them the tools to find a path on their own. Once on the road, positive feedback, mentoring, determination, and a positive vibe allow teams to try, to make mistakes, to investigate, and to learn.

That’s the mindset Marijn will add to your organization.

Keil Wilson (k-EYE-ill or kile) has a long and varied IT background and has seen many of the challenges IT organizations face firsthand. Across roles as a developer, lead, project manager, and IT architect, he often ran into the same pressures around scope, schedule, and cost. Looking for better alternatives to the traditional planning and estimating approaches taught by "professors and professionals," he turned to the Manifesto for Agile Software Development. The result was happier customers, more engaged teams, and quality products/projects delivered and refined frequently.

Since that shift to agile development, Keil has spent years building agile teams that use iterative delivery and feedback to provide timely, valuable IT products and services for organizations of all sizes. He is a certified agile coach, agile leader, and Scrum Master who helps teams, clients, and customers reach their goals using agile principles and practices.

Speaker | Clarity & Decision-Making | Leadership & Organizational Dynamics

Amanda Hoffmann works at the intersection of decision-making, identity, and group dynamics—helping leaders and organizations see where certainty, assumptions, and “best practices” quietly distort how they think.

Her work introduces a different approach:

Why clarity—not confidence—is the foundation of good decisions

How high-performing leaders operate in misalignment without realizing it

What happens when teams confuse alignment with agreement

Why many goals are inherited, not chosen—and how that impacts performance

With 20+ years advising leaders across industries, Amanda blends systems thinking, behavioral insight, and real-world leadership experience to make complex ideas immediately usable.

She is the creator of:

The Core Alignment Model (CAM)

The Clarity System (clarity → agency → results)

And concepts such as the Borrowed Self Epidemic, and Judgment Jurisdiction

Her sessions are known for being:

Provocative without being performative

Intellectually rigorous, but accessible

Practical without relying on generic “best practices”

Audiences leave with something rare:
Not just answers—but better questions, clearer thinking, and the ability to make decisions with real intention.
