According to many studies, our adaptability is one of the most important Soft Skills to keep up with the rapidly changing world we live in today. Tom Sligting, speaker and comedian for over 28 years has created an energetic Keynote Speech in which he shows that it is possible to measure your Soft Skills today. This way you can have more grip on points that each individual can improve. This speech is perfecct as an energetic closing speech.
What can we learn from an octopus when it comes to our adaptability?
Tom Sligting uses the octopus as a metaphor for his speech. That's why the octopus is also his logo.
If a light comes on in your car, you go to the garage, plug in a laptop and a comprehensive check follows with an immediate solution. But if, as a manager or executive, you know you're not performing at your peak, then what? Then you can go read all kinds of books, take courses, or check the level of your Soft Skills. By measuring these you know what you need to pay attention to, more importantly you may find out that you need to unlearn something.
In this energetic Keynote
Speech of at least 45 minutes, Tom Sligting will let you experience it all. Because of his background as a comedian it is a dynamic show with lots of humor, but above all many learning moments that can be used immediately in practice.
Of course there is also attention for deepening, when it comes to measuring and knowing your Soft Skills Tom will show you how.
Why the Octopus as a logo?
It is a special animal that has survived on this planet for over 500 million years.
So we can learn something from it.
I will show you at the end of the Keynote Speech what we can learn from an Octopus.
So are you looking for an energetic speech that is relevant. With humor and interaction?
A speech that will be talked about, with knowledge that is immediately applicable?
But also has aspects to explore further?
Then you have found it.
Of course, with customization, the speech can be adapted to fit your event exactly.
Tom gives this speech in Dutch and English.

Tom put together a very entertaining roast based on limited information. Everyone was covered once and everyone had a hearty laugh.
, Organisator evenement
Tom put on a lighthearted and humorous performance. A nice combination of humor, laughter and an (inspiring) underlying message for our program. Tom is a true professional and prepares his performances well. It is very pleasant to work with Tom.

For our year-end event, we were looking for a show that would not be standard. Tom's The Company Roast actually stood out right away. Even though we didn't know exactly what to expect, and how hard The Company Roast / Personal Roast was going to be Tom cleared up all doubts during our preliminary interview. Tom is very easy to work with, is experienced, keeps all appointments made, communicates clearly, and was always on time. Tom put on a fantastic (3-part) 1-hour show (personal roast of some colleagues and management, company roast and a quiz) with limited content he received from us. Afterwards, some colleagues even regretted that they were not personally roasted. Tom brought this in a very playful way and put a smile on the faces of all our employees! So it was a very successful event! I would definitely recommend Tom.

What an energy! Tom took us through the past year in just under an hour, looked ahead with our board, put everyone who deserved it in the spotlight and played a quiz with a number of colleagues. All of this with a lot of enthusiasm and humour. In the preparation Tom was a pleasure to work with. Professional, flexible and also very sociable. Highly recommended!

In addition to all the content of the day, it was good to end the day with a light-hearted tone. That light-hearted tone was there. Tom knew how to adapt his story to the audience and there was a lot of laughter. A very nice conclusion of a successful customer day
