Monika Sattler
Monika Sattler works with leadership teams that need to perform consistently – no matter what. Her system for achieving this: CLIMB, developed from two cycling records and used in leading companies worldwide.
She studied International Security, specialising in nuclear weapons, and began her career at the IMF and the World Bank before moving into management consultancy. She then swapped strategy presentations for mountain passes – and set two cycling records, including completing all 124 Swiss Alpine passes in 26 days. No rest days. No stable conditions. No Plan B.
Today, she brings this experience to leadership teams worldwide. She delivers her keynotes in German and English.
Monika Sattler lecture topics
- OWN THE CLIMB – What keeps teams performing, no matter what comes their way.
What do 124 Swiss Alpine passes in 26 days and leadership teams have in common? Shifting priorities, constant change, obstacles along the way – and yet the expectation to deliver. Monika shows how performance remains stable when conditions are not – with CLIMB as a concrete system that teams can apply immediately.
- TEAM PERFORMANCE – Strong together, whatever comes
124 passes in 26 days – no rest days, no Plan B – requires genuine team performance. This arises when everyone pulls in the same direction under pressure. Monika demonstrates how teams take joint responsibility – for decisions, implementation and results, regardless of what changes.
- PERFORMANCE IN TRANSFORMATION – Structure beats motivation
When structures, priorities and expectations are all changing at the same time, motivation alone is not enough. What works: a system. Monika shows how leadership teams can remain effective even under constant pressure and constant change.
What participants take away:
- Why structure trumps motivation
- What strong teams under pressure have in common
- CLIMB as a concrete system that can be applied immediately
- Clarity on what drives one’s own performance – and how to embed it within the organisation
