When problems hit:
Method over panik
From “Oh no!” to “I’ve got an idea.”
A problem pops up—suddenly, uninvited. The machine isn’t working, the customer hasn’t received the goods, the specifications weren’t met. Now we need a good solution fast. Your heart rate rises, your thoughts race. In moments like these, we need calm, structure, and creativity.
This is exactly where Steffen Münzberg comes in. The experienced engineer, technical sales professional, and philosophical thinker with over 30 years professional experience—including 20 years in sales and project management—provides in his presentation clear guidelines for swift, structured, and creative problem-solving. He combines practical, experience-based knowledge with a deep theoretical understanding of problem-solving strategies, creativity, and the development of new solutions.
“When Problems Hit: Method over Panic” focuses on a clear, step-by-step method for real-world work problems: in the office, in the workshop, on projects, in customer interactions, and anywhere else where a manual no longer helps. The method provides guidance, leads you through the individual phases of problem-solving, and offers the right thinking tools exactly where they’re needed.
With plenty of humor, examples from everyday life, technology, and history, as well as clear, accessible language, Steffen Münzberg makes it clear: Those who know how to solve problems in a structured and methodical way remain capable of taking action even under pressure. Analytical and creative problem-solving can be learned, practiced, and specifically improved.
A presentation for administrative staff, technical specialists, project managers, career starters, and anyone who doesn’t want to panic when a problem arises.
How does something new emerge and how can we create something new?
An entertaining journey through the history of innovation.
The eloquent Steffen Münzberg, who is deeply rooted in the subject, takes you on a humorous journey through the evolution of innovation. His subtle wit and humor will captivate you, and you will find that a glimpse into the world of evolutionary development can be extremely engaging.
We gain numerous fascinating insights from this lecture by Steffen Münzberg. From the Big Bang to the origin of life, Steffen Münzberg elegantly guides you through the important steps of cultural, biological and mechanical evolution. You will understand what a joke has in common with a virus or what the so-called selfish gene is all about.
There have always been innovations in human history. Steffen Münzberg knows that the question of why certain innovations are successful while others fail is crucial. There are many factors that influence the success or failure of an innovation. They range from technological feasibility, market demand and a little bit of chance to the social trends of the time.
A deep understanding of which ideas succeed and why allows us to identify patterns and draw lessons for our approach to future innovation. Historically, defining innovations have often been those that were not only technologically advanced, but also addressed a real need in society. Successfully positioning innovations requires not only creative thinking, but also an understanding of market needs and requirements.
Get excited and inspired! Use this knowledge to sprout innovation in your mind and in your business!

... this model can be a good tool for approaching complex interdisciplinary issues such as artificial intelligence, sex, gender, or patriarchy. Münzberg's model makes it easier to understand the complex technical-cultural, technical-biological, and cultural-biological interactions in the world.
