There are leadership speakers who talk about transformation. Philip Horváth has spent thirty years producing it.

We are living through one of the most turbulent periods in recent history. Climate disruption, geopolitical volatility, the rise of AI, the dissolution of traditional organizational structures, the speed of change that now outpaces the capacity of most humans and institutions to adapt. The question is no longer whether leaders need to develop. It is whether they will develop fast enough — and deeply enough — to meet what is already here.

Philip’s work sits at the intersection of that question and a thirty-year inquiry into what actually makes transformation possible. His career spans two worlds most people keep entirely separate. In one: corporate boardrooms, enterprise transformation programs at some of the world’s most complex organizations, a decade co-designing the most successful corporate intrapreneurship program of its kind globally — the Siemens Intrapreneur Bootcamp — training nearly 1,000 intrapreneurs across more than forty countries. In the other: three decades of rigorous inquiry into the traditions of human development that don’t appear on most leadership curricula — neuroscience, somatic practice, adult development theory, and the wisdom traditions that have been asking questions about consciousness and change for far longer than any business school.

His talks don’t just motivate. They reorient and transform. Philip draws on both worlds simultaneously — not because it makes for a better narrative, but because the actual answer to what makes transformation possible lives at that intersection. The relational intelligence, adaptive capacity, and meaning-making ability that complex times demand cannot be automated. They can, however, be developed. And Philip has spent thirty years learning exactly how.

He is the co-founder of LUMAN, a human development consultancy working with CHROs and innovation leaders on the conditions that make real transformation possible. He has worked with Siemens, Airbus, Vodafone, T-Mobile, Bundesagentur für Arbeit, and organizations across Europe, North America, and the Middle East.

He is currently completing his first book, The Relational Age — a workbook for leaders with the human development required when process execution is no longer a uniquely human capacity.

Philip speaks at leadership conferences, executive summits, and corporate transformation programs. Based in Berlin. Speaks English and German. Available internationally.

Philip Horváth has spent thirty years asking the same question from different angles: what does it actually take for a human being — or a human organization — to change, at depth, in a way that lasts?

His talks don’t just motivate. They reorient and transform. Drawing on adult development theory, neuroscience, systems thinking, and a research arc that spans both rigorous science and ancient wisdom traditions, he helps leaders build the inner capacities that the complexity of our times demands — from climate disruption and geopolitical volatility to AI-driven transformation and the relentless speed of change.

He co-designed and co-led one of the most successful corporate intrapreneurship program of its kind globally — the Siemens Intrapreneur Bootcamp — training nearly 1,000 intrapreneurs across 40+ countries. He is the co-founder of LUMAN and is currently completing his first book, The Relational Age. Based in Berlin. English and German.
