Matthias Poehm

Biography

Matthias Poehm once had a key-experience as an elected staff representative. He failed miserably in front of the entire staff during a meeting with a bright red head and a trembling voice.

After that he made his fear of public speaking disappear through years of permanent training with many defeats. Meanwhile he has made a name for himself as one of the most well-known trainers of public speaking and "ready wit".

The press calls him "the best public speaking trainer in the German-speaking countries" (Nordwest Zeitung). He is the founder of the Anti PowerPoint Party. Poehm's methods are extraordinary and often go against the common doctrine. He is a rebel, who questions many things, and he says: "I am not interested in established rules, even not my own ones. I don't want to be right - I always want the best results".
Due to his analytic gift, Matthias Poehm wrote relevant books on many topics: on ready wit, public speaking, price negotiations, and seduction.

Due to a spiritual experience he found a new field that has nothing to do with the improvement of technical communicative skills. It is the topic of purpose, deep happiness, spirituality, enlightenment. Here as well he is a rebel. He says: "Wanting to improve your skills in any area is OK. But that won't render you a happy and fulfilled person. We only can overcome our phantom-life, if we acknowledge that it is there."
