About the podcast
People already breaking new ground share what works and what doesn’t
Every other Tuesday, Moritz sits down with leading voices in people and leadership development around the world.
His guests include Heather Stefanski (Chief Learning Officer & Head of People, Data & Analytics at McKinsey & Company), Thomas Ogilvie (Board Member for Human Resources, DHL Group) and Dr Nigel Paine (former Head of People Development at the BBC and author). They are thought leaders from business, education and research who share what really goes on behind the scenes.
Why do we do this? Because development only makes a real difference when leadership, culture and technology work together. These are the conversations Moritz has on the show. Honest, practical and peer to peer.

Founder, host, expert
Moritz helps organisations invest more boldly in developing their people. With AI, skills shortages and structural change all hitting at once, that has become the decisive competitive advantage.
He has seen transformation from the inside: as a corporate entrepreneur at Bertelsmann, on the German government’s task force on skills shortages and as the founder of Forever Day One.
