Package
Perfect to complement Marc's keynote: the book package.
After his presentation, the audience usually heads straight to the "book table" to meet Marc in person, ask him questions, and pick up a signed copy of his book.
Some request a personal dedication for family members or colleagues to directly pass on the positive impact. Others take their book home to delve deeper into the content of the talk or to look up answers to any lingering questions.
Either way, the book ensures that your event will be remembered and talked about for a long time.
The book as an event booster
“Strength through Crises” became a SPIEGEL bestseller and serves many as a “travel guide through the jungle of life.”
The book gives very personal insights and background information about Marc's kidnapping into the jungle. But it goes far beyond that. In the second part of his book, Marc shares what he learned from his burnout and how others can emerge stronger from such crises.
As part of the lecture, Marc shares some of his “jungle strategies” (approx. 4-8, depending on the organizers' expectations).
In the book, your guests will also receive additional resilience techniques for everyday life.
That's why most organizers book the bestseller package together with the keynote.

About the Book
Summary
Along with 20 other hostages, Marc Wallert was kidnapped by terrorists to a Philippine island and held captive in the jungle for 140 days. 20 years later, he talks about survival strategies and what he learned from this experience. The jungle didn't break him back then, but the everyday life thereafter drove him into a burnout. To understand this, he went on a journey of discovery, focusing on the crucial moments – the crises.
In this book, he explains effective strategies for private and professional life, with which one can not only get through crises with strength but even grow from them.
Blurb
In a world of accelerated change, crises and stresses have become the norm. Now more than ever, people and organizations need the art of not losing their heads. With psychological resilience, known as resilience, people can not only survive crises but even emerge stronger from them. The key is to keep a cool head. Protective factors like acceptance, optimism, and stress competence help in this regard. The good news is: They can be learned!
Those who, after (supposedly) overcoming crises, flee unchanged back into their comfort zone risk falling into the trap of repetition. Therefore, the Weeble principle of "fall down, get up, carry on" is not a solution. But there are ways to grow purposefully from one's own experiences.
Especially turbulent times occur in teams when they have to deal with uncertainty under pressure. Stress and conflicts are often inevitable and at the same time necessary for success. Strong teams are formed under the right conditions and grow through their challenges.
In this book, Marc Wallert combines his leadership and kidnapping experience and transfers his insights from the jungle into the professional context. He also offers suggestions on how to strengthen oneself for the challenges of everyday life.
