I started as a developer. I automated thousands of tests — because I had no interest in testing manually.
At some point I realized: the biggest problems in software teams are not technical. They are habit problems.

Today I guide companies through software modernization at Gepardec — and I give keynotes on the habits behind code quality, stress, and long-term performance.

My book FutureHabits is out fall 2026.

Lani Gonzales

Lani Gonzales

Lani Gonzales helps successful women and high achievers who look accomplished on the outside—but feel exhausted, disconnected, or unfulfilled on the inside—create success without burnout and power without losing their soul.

Many of the women Lani works with have done everything “right.” They’ve built impressive careers, achieved financial independence, and earned respect—yet inside, they feel stuck, overextended, or quietly empty. The constant pressure to perform, produce, and prove has pulled them further from their intuition, their body, and their deeper sense of purpose.

After becoming a law firm partner at 23, Lani lived that same story. From the outside, she had it all. On the inside, she was driven by subconscious survival patterns and a nervous system locked in overdrive. Her own awakening led her to leave the legal profession and devote her life to studying the subconscious mind, human behavior, and the wisdom traditions that have guided healing and leadership for thousands of years.

Today, Lani blends neuroscience-based hypnotherapy, performance psychology, and ancient wisdom traditions to help high-achieving women:
- Rewire burnout and overdrive at the root
- Break free from subconscious self-sabotage
- Reconnect to clarity, intuition, and inner authority
- Build success that feels aligned, sustainable, and alive

Her talks are known for being raw, strategic, and deeply activating—combining modern science with timeless wisdom to create real, lasting transformation. Audiences leave with tools they can use immediately to change how they lead, live, and work.

Alexander Chernov

Alexander Chernov

As a Subject Matter Expert, I operate at the intersection of agentic systems, large-scale data platforms, and real-time infrastructure, leading research and architecture for systems where data, equipment, and applications become active, self-governing entities.

My work focuses on defining and evolving agent-native system architectures that span cloud, on-prem, and hybrid environments. I design platforms where datasets, filesystems, equipment catalogs, and services own their workflows, lifecycle, and operational intent, enabling near real-time adaptation, autonomous coordination, and policy-driven execution.

I stay hands-on with the systems I design. I prototype, wire up, stress-test, and iterate on real platforms - often moving from whiteboard to running code, from UI interaction to control plane logic, from local experiments to production-grade infrastructure.

I work across frontend, backend, and infrastructure layers, not as isolated components but as a single system that must behave predictably under load, failure, and change. My focus is on making complex systems understandable, operable, and pleasant to evolve - for both humans and machines.

I build systems around reliability, security, and isolation by design, using declarative resource models, infrastructure-as-code, and custom controllers to map desired state into observable, governable reality. I actively integrate practices from AIOps, MLOps, DevSecOps, and Site Reliability Engineering, ensuring that intelligent systems remain explainable, operable, and safe at scale.

A core strength of my work is designing near real-time telemetry, metrics, and event pipelines that operate across heterogeneous environments and process data at multi-terabyte scale. These pipelines are not treated as observability add-ons, but as first-class architectural primitives that enable feedback, learning, and adaptation.

My experience spans high-reliability and regulated domains, including finance, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and industrial automation. This includes architecting reactive financial systems, contributing to GxP-aligned MES platforms, and designing control and automation systems for semiconductor manufacturing and robotics, with deep experience in SECS/HSMS-based integrations.

Julia Grosse

Dr. Julia Grosse is the founder of The Cyclical CEO™, where she helps high-performing women and business teams achieve sustainable growth by syncing strategy with biology. With a background in biology and years of field research—including leadership experience during the largest polar science mission of our time, the MOSAiC Arctic Expedition—Julia bridges performance science, female leadership, and business systems.

Her career began as a scientist, but burnout and firsthand leadership experience in extreme environments revealed a missing piece: productivity and decision-making don’t operate on a 24-hour schedule, especially for women. This insight led her to pioneer rhythm-based business frameworks that combine hormonal intelligence, cognitive science, and modern productivity models.

Through her signature programs—like the Business Rhythm Blueprint and the S.C.A.L.E. Method—Julia has equipped leaders, entrepreneurs, and HR professionals across Europe to harness their natural cycles for better focus, communication, and wellbeing. Her work has been featured in New Me Event Series, Leaders Perception Magazine, and the Womanship “Behind the Bio” podcast.

Julia’s practical, evidence-based approach activates audiences: her sessions don’t just inform—they inspire action and lasting results. Whether you’re scaling a business, building resilient teams, or seeking new models for sustainable performance, Julia brings a fresh science-backed perspective that redefines leadership for the future of work.
