"A man's greatest enemy is himself."
Strong, competent and assertive. This is the stereotypical image of men. But what remains if we emancipate ourselves from this image? When is a man a man? Just like Herbert Grönemeyer, our guest in the latest SMP LeaderTalk will be discussing what makes men tick from society's perspective - and what actually makes them tick.
"Everything you think and feel is okay."
Björn Süfke is a men's psychotherapist, author and speaker. His consultations, books and talks are all about men. About the pressure men are under to perform due to their stereotypical role model. That it is perfectly okay to suffer from this pressure to perform. And how important it is for their mental health that men also talk about their feelings.
"There are no toxic men, only toxic masculinity."
This SMP LeaderTalk is a typical men's round table - and at the same time not a typical men's talk at all. Björn Süfke and Georgiy Michailov talk openly about toxic masculinity. About the downside of success as male leaders. And about what they try to do right as fathers.
