Mental Capital
Boost your brain and resilience!
More detailed information
Challenging times consume our attention and energy. We run, we react, we run out of energy. That's precisely why now is the time to increase your mental capital. Not theoretically, but practically.
In this keynote, you'll gain crystal-clear insight into how your brain works under pressure. You'll see the effects of stress, how to better protect your attention, and how to recover faster. Using the #1 bestseller Better Minds as a common thread, Elke Geraerts translates neuropsychology into behavior that works — today. Start small, persevere consistently, and you'll have a big impact.
You'll learn to focus when it counts and consciously defocus to recharge. You'll build routines for energy, concentration, and freedom of choice into your day. So you not only stay afloat but also perform better with less clutter.
What you take away
Simple tools to calm your stress system and focus your attention.
Insights on how to expand your awareness and better control your thoughts, emotions, and behavior.
Smart boundaries and digital hygiene that protect your focus.
The 48-hour challenge to immediately translate tips into action.
Impact
The following week, you'll notice a difference. More peace of mind. Less ad hoc work and more completed tasks. Teams will speak the same language about resilience and stress and keep each other on track. The pressure remains, the exhaustion doesn't.
What if your team thinks sharper tomorrow than it does today?
That's what Elke Geraerts is all about. A doctor of psychology, passionate about behavior and performance, and a speaker who shows without any fuss how to build mental resilience and focus.
She has held academic positions at Harvard University, St. Andrews University, Maastricht University, and Rotterdam University, and was recently a visiting professor at Ghent University's Faculty of Economics and Business.
In 2014, she founded Better Minds, now an international team of around fifty psychologists, coaches, and consultants who help organizations sustainably increase leadership, productivity, and resilience.
As an author, she reached a wide audience with her books "Mental Capital", followed by "The New Mental", "Authentic Intelligence", and "The Mental Reset". Her work has appeared in English, Chinese, Korean, and Arabic.
In 2024 she launched “Focus is the New Gold”, in 2025, together with Marie Loop, “Mental Capital for Youngsters”.
Elke's keynotes are direct, human, and actionable. No buzzwords, just concrete tools you can apply the same day. That's why halls from Buenos Aires to Singapore are packed and why attendees still refer to "that one insight" months later.
