In this podcast with Julian Deb, I share my experiences and insights on the topic of calling. We discuss how to find your calling, whether it has to align with your career, and the role of self-reflection, courage, and perseverance. I talk about my career path, from my time in technical sales to founding my own company in the field of training and HR consulting. Together with my wife, Daniela Maiwald, I help people who feel stuck in a professional dead end to recognize their potential and communicate it effectively.

About the book: The 72 hand-picked Zurich residents have made a difference in this city, helped shape it, or are still doing so, or are just starting out. They come from a wide variety of industries and thus provide an overall picture of the character of the city on the Limmat. The book does not judge or summarize. It depicts a variety of life paths and shows the motivation of individuals to approach things differently - in a journalistic, biographical style. Anyone who reads these personal portraits from A to Z will understand the soul of the city and what makes its special people so successful. The author: Dr. phil. Connie Voigt has been publishing non-fiction books on psychology ("Psychovampires") and intercultural communication and leadership since 2009. Between 2000 and 2020, she was Head of Communications at Gate Gourmet, Editor-in-Chief of the HR magazine HR Today, and a communications coach for, among others, Swisscom and the University of St. Gallen. The Publisher: For 25 years, Elmar Zinke Verlag has published 150 biographical anthologies on cities such as Berlin, Karlsruhe, Bremen, and Cologne. Zurich represents Volume I in Switzerland; an anthology of portraits in Winterthur will be published at the end of 2025.
