Play the Key Note of Your Life
How to Leave a Mark and Make an Impact
Lecture | Workshop
Prof. Orit Wolf
As Leonard Bernstein once said: “People will forget what you said or did, but they will never forget how you made them feel.”
Leaving a mark is not about playing it safe, following the rules, or avoiding mistakes. It is about creating transformative moments that resonate-acting with courage, solving problems in real time, and embracing the power of disruption. It is about daring to surprise, to inspire, and to lead with passion and curiosity.
This is Prof. Orit Wolf’s primary speciality. A renowned international concert pianist, TED speaker, and mentor to Fortune 500 leaders, she has dedicated her career to helping individuals and organisations alike discover their unique “stamp.” Her acclaimed TED Talk on this subject has reached thousands worldwide: Watch the TED Talk.
Why This Session is Unique
Unlike conventional lectures on leadership and innovation, this session is accompanied by a live piano performance (when available), offering a great opportunity, though not a must.
Music becomes both metaphor and method, illustrating principles of courage, adaptability, and inspiration in real time.
With vivid stories from the concert stage, real-time improvisation, and bold insights from decades of performing and mentoring, Prof. Wolf makes every session an unforgettable journey. Participants don’t just listen to theories - they experience innovation, personal impact, and leadership through sound, story, and shared reflection.

Why Choose This Session
This is not another leadership lecture.
It is an experience - combining music, storytelling, and a structured framework that empowers participants to rethink what it means to lead, to inspire, and to leave their mark.
By integrating her Four Questions Model (Who am I? What am I? How am I? Why am I?), Prof. Wolf provides participants with a practical methodology to articulate their identity, amplify their impact, and craft a personal brand that endures.
Whether you are a CEO, scientist, educator, entrepreneur, or student, this session offers both the inspiration and the actionable tools to transform your professional and personal presence into a lasting legacy.
(Having a piano in the venue is not a must, but it provides an excellent opportunity to make the session uniquely powerful and unforgettable.)
