How do you make your organization more inclusive and productive? With a keynote about taboos!
“taBOOH” is a high-energy keynote that takes you on a journey through all kinds of taboos we encounter daily. Filip provides you with three keywords and the perfect icebreakers to break through taboos. Be prepared, because after this keynote, no conversation about taboos will ever be the same.
Topics
With his keynote “taBOOH,” Filip helps both men and women realize how taboos hold us back. He illustrates how menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause exclude women. How simple things like using the bathroom lead to unnecessary shame. How difficult it is for men to just be “men.”
The solution
“taBOOH” is about the necessity of being able to be yourself in the workplace. It is a vital message for creating job satisfaction. Filip highlights this need in a way that is both funny and uncomfortable. After all, we are all a little bit guilty of keeping taboos alive.
Filip inspires his audience to start conversations about taboos. He teaches you how to initiate those discussions using simple and practical tips.
