    Behind the Scenes – Keir Whitaker

    Welcome to another episode of my little “Behind the Scenes” (video-)podcast. The idea of this irregular series is to introduce you to a few people that are part of the beyond tellerrand journey. Sometimes that is a speaker, sometimes someone who helps me in a different way and usually goes unnoticed or without much of a spotlight on them. Next to the fact that these people help me, I want to furthermore introduce you to them since they mean something to me.Yes, I run beyond tellerrand for nearly 15 years as a single person, a one-person band or, like some would say, a solopreneur. But surely there are a lot of people who helped me along the way – next to my wonderful family of course. Some more often, some from time to time, but I am absolutely thankful for their input, their help, their opinion, feedback or however they support me. One of these people is today’s guest: Keir Whitaker. We know each other for more than a decade already. Once a week Keir is there for me to listen to my rants, complaints, ideas and I can pick his brain for an opinion or feedback. He is the reason why I put much more effort into my newsletter these days and continue to work on it regularly, for example. In this unscripted episode we were talking about feedback – giving feedback, listening to feedback and using feedback. Furthermore I asked Keir how important it is these days to have a website, especially if you run an event. Surely we also had a conversation about social media and how it changed over the last 10 years and the role it plays for an event organiser today. And last but not least, I asked him about his own event series, he started 2023, called Craft and Work. What it is about, when and where it does it take place and who should come. Enjoy!

    Behind the Scenes – Gavin Strange

    Gavin Strange created the design for our 2025 Düsseldorf edition. Including live performed opening titles. We loved it so much what he did for the 2025 Düsseldorf show. It totally matched the idea of what beyond tellerrand means. Here is a little Behind the scenes video of Gavin and Marc chatting about how it all came to the point that Gavin created the whole theme and played opening titles live at the event on stage.
