EULEAD Summer School 2023 - Preface Governor Johanna Mikl-Leitner
Today and tomorrow are unthinkable without trust and security
The EULEAD Summer School 2023 on the topic "Trust creates security" at Göttweig Abbey impressively underlines the great importance of an efficient management style with ethical-value-oriented thinking and acting. Especially now, in our superficial and fast-moving times, which are increasingly characterized by a lack of solidarity and a loss of values, people need togetherness and trust that is more helpful and up-to-date for our lives and the world of work than seldom before. New technological possibilities, changes in society, changes in the workplace, all these characteristics of our time create uneasiness and insecurity. At the same time, our need for support, orientation, stability and security is growing. The question of principles to build on is getting louder and louder. The longing for values that guide us through life is growing. It is all the more important to encourage people to keep those enduring values that a country, a society, and every individual need on the way to the future. Because a life without values is worthless in the truest sense of the word. Even and especially in today's world, which is characterized by superficiality and materialism, principles such as charity, family spirit, solidarity and respect for God and creation must not be forgotten because they are not buzzwords but timeless values.
With this in mind, I wish the EULEAD Summer School, which examines leadership and business in areas of tension and deals with finding the right balance, a good course and all participants important impulses, in-depth knowledge and valuable encounters. A heartfelt "Vergelt's Gott" to all who are taking part and to those who have worked together to make this event possible.

Martin Ploderer
After graduating from the Lycée Français de Vienne, Martin Ploderer first studied law and theater studies, but also passed the state stage entrance qualification. After performances in Vienna and Berlin, he moved to Paris, where he taught, among other things, at the renowned private drama school "Cours Florent". As a result, his path led him to the Austrian Embassy in Paris (press and information service). After his return to Vienna, he worked in various industries for a few years before deciding to return to his true calling as an actor on stage and in front of the camera. Respect for the written and spoken word is always of particular concern to him. In a time of increasing linguistic arbitrariness, Martin Ploderer would like to strengthen or awaken sensitivity and respect for precise and correct language in his audience and give it the place it deserves through an always personal and thus faithful interpretation of important literature.
Since the commemorative year 2014, in which he first presented the complete version of Karl Kraus's "Last Days of Mankind" over 16 evenings in Vienna's Pygmalion Theater, he has been touring with guest performances at home and abroad with excerpts from it. He was awarded the audience prize at the Kiev Monodrama Festival. The complete recording of the work as an audio book on 18 CDs (published by MONO-Verlag) took first place in the audio book list of the Hessian radio hr1.
He was able to inspire his audience with two other major projects of complete versions on his own - Dante Alighieri's "Göttliche Komödie" in the German translation in verse by Hans Werner Sokop and Goethe's "Faust I".
Selma Lagerlöf's "Nils Holgersson" was published as a complete version audio book in 2020.
In October 2023, the Austrian cinema film "Kein Stepp zurück" will be released in cinemas, in which Martin Ploderer plays a leading role. In November 2023, the monumental French film "L'Abbé Pierre - et vie de combats" ("Abbé Pierre, a life of struggles"), in which Martin Ploderer plays the role of Albert Einstein, will premiere in French cinemas. This film was screened out of competition at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival.
Martin Ploderer performs in both French and German. He is also active as a writer of poetry, prose and plays.
