Through our genes, the traumas of our parents and grandparents continue to live within us. Even in the executive suites of German corporations, the consequences of our history, especially the Nazi era, often leave their mark unconsciously and shape leadership and corporate culture. Maren Heidemann has extensively studied transgenerational trauma. After working as a consultant at the executive level for many years, she decided to step away. Instead of continuing to support structures shaped by trauma, she now focuses her work on healing people and systems from it. At our TEDxMünster conference, she will share how this came about, the role her own family history plays in it, and how we can recognize symptoms and free ourselves from them.
