Vita
Peter Dern is a consultant, trainer, speaker, coach, and facilitator with over 25 years of experience at the intersection of technology, organization, and collaboration. He has worked at international corporations such as SAP and Software AG, where he established and led corporate learning departments, and now works independently with companies, teams, and executives.
His professional journey combines a background in the natural sciences with many years of practical experience in organizational development, leadership, intercultural collaboration, and organizational learning. He is particularly interested in how people think, make decisions, and act when things get complex.
Away from the stage and the seminar room, he writes books—both non-fiction and fiction under a pseudonym. If asked about his interests, he would spontaneously answer, “Joy of life, social psychology, and quantum physics.” Which, at a dinner party, would likely earn him an “Ah, interesting…” followed by a table all to himself. So he’ll probably say instead: “I like to cook. And I like to eat. Especially spicy food.”
