Building Resilience in a World Where Change is the Only Constant
More detailed information
How do you deal with uncertainty as a daily reality? What if your organization recovers faster than it's affected?
Change is no longer a project, it's the backdrop. And that's precisely where you can make a difference. This keynote provides a clear framework for prioritizing health and well-being over performance — not as an add-on, but as a prerequisite for performance. No vague theory, just neuroscientific insights translated into effective behavior. For leaders and teams.
Elke Geraerts shows how to strengthen mental, emotional, and social skills so that people not only survive but also perform better under pressure. You'll learn how to create a rhythm in work and recovery, how to make psychological safety tangible, and how to accelerate adaptation without losing energy.
What you take away
A simple compass to choose change without noise, with discipline.
Rituals for resilience: check-ins, micro-recovery, clear boundaries that everyone respects.
Leadership behaviors that build trust and increase ownership.
Team agreements that help your entire organization to switch faster and collaborate better.
Impact
In the coming weeks, you'll notice it in the flow. Clear priorities. Less noise. Shorter meetings and more decisions that stick. Teams dare to experiment, learn faster, and lift each other up. Agile, without losing the human element.
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.
