Expert profile

Lilian Gehrke-Vetterkind

I am Lilian Gehrke-Vetterkind, trainer and consultant for diversity & inclusion, inclusive leadership, and female empowerment. In my training courses, I combine in-depth knowledge with a wealth of practical experience: respectful, clear, and in such a way that participants can take immediate action. I am motivated when uncertainty or resistance gives way to a different attitude and people learn to work together in a more appreciative and respectful manner. I chose this profession because I am convinced that every person has the right to be treated fairly. And organizations need a culture in which people can grow regardless of any attributions.
