Edith Bosch talks about taking 100% responsibility. As a three-time Olympic medalist and world champion, she knows better than anyone else that this is the only way to be successful.
Edith Bosch stood at the absolute world top in judo for 16 years. Always fighting: literally and figuratively. Everything to achieve the ultimate goal, to become the best in the world. With an iron discipline, she pushed herself to the limit. Harder, better, faster… Until she hit a wall. She realized that her life was more about obligation than desire, and that she was sabotaging her own well-being and success. She had to change herself and take 100% responsibility to truly win.
She found the courage to look at herself and do something good with what she saw. To use everything she had experienced for her own growth. That’s when everything changed, for herself and the people around her.
From her mission to contribute to a ‘brave new world’, Edith shares her experiences as a speaker and motivator. She gets everyone excited to take control themselves and no longer depend on their surroundings. So that you can also make more of a difference for the people around you.
It seems so easy, we think we’re all doing it, but when it gets challenging, there are few who demand that of themselves and others; being 100% responsible. She helps companies and (young) professionals play their own game. She provides the tools you need to truly take responsibility now. Especially in moments that matter, when it’s exciting or doesn’t go as expected.
Edith challenges you to do what is necessary to take steps yourself. Redefining what being successful means. This way, you don’t just keep your talent for yourself, but also help those around you.
“I attended the Advantage Travel Centre group Conference in Sorrento. I have worked in the travel industry for over 20 yrs and have had the opportunity of listening to many different people but no one has ever reduced me or a whole audience to tears like you did. You deserved your standing ovation.”
"Are you always 100% responsible for yourself, your behavior, and the choices you make?" During the Pitstop seminar at the HAN University of Applied Sciences, Edith Bosch took us on a journey through her inspiring story about personal leadership, mental fitness, and ownership. She took the time for questions, and there was a lot of interaction with the audience. The content of the seminar resonated well with the target audience. Edith's enthusiasm is contagious!
"Edith has shared an inspiring and personal story with us. From a valuable pre-conversation, she brought out what was important for us as an organization, and she clearly conveyed those points from her experience and knowledge."
