><p>&#8220;1995. I work for Accenture, an American management consultancy. Assignments in Switzerland, Germany, France, USA. The same picture everywhere. Lots of boring, sometimes lousy presentations with and without PowerPoint. A sabbatical after six years. A year off. Decision: I will follow the example of my father and brother. Both have successfully founded their own company. My vision: Only exciting, informative and convincing speeches and presentations are given in this world. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Thomas Skipwith, founder and managing director<\/p>\n<p>The above story laid the foundation for the DESCUBRIS institute. It started in 2002. The DESCUBRIS institute was founded in Zurich. Today the headquarters are 15 minutes west of Zurich in Oberwil-Lieli.<\/p>\n<p>The trainers of the DESCUBRIS institute are regularly presenting on stage and online. This way they gain hands-on experience and try out the latest ideas themselves. They pass on these experiences and the most proven insights to the participants in an entertaining way. Since the institute was founded, thousands have attended our lectures, rhetoric coaching and rhetoric courses.<\/p>\n<p>The name of the institute comes from Spanish. &#8220;Descubrir&#8221; means &#8220;to discover&#8221;. Just like \u201cD\u00e9couvrir\u201d in French and \u201cdiscover\u201d in English. The name of the institute is an invitation to the participants: They should take the opportunity to put old things aside, to discover something new, to question old habits and to try out new techniques.<\/p>\n<p>The DESCUBRIS institute works in German, English and French. Worldwide.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-1i1i72u-675cf790a5bf006014f4a3fcd7fb2aee\">\n.avia-section.av-1i1i72u-675cf790a5bf006014f4a3fcd7fb2aee{\nbackground-color:#fff7f7;\nbackground-image:unset;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div id='team'  class='avia-section av-1i1i72u-675cf790a5bf006014f4a3fcd7fb2aee main_color avia-section-default avia-shadow  avia-builder-el-10  el_after_av_section  el_before_av_section  avia-bg-style-scroll container_wrap sidebar_right'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-small alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-2112'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-1fgs5bq-879caaa616e5c9e6c1313446960e8985\">\n.flex_column.av-1fgs5bq-879caaa616e5c9e6c1313446960e8985{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-1fgs5bq-879caaa616e5c9e6c1313446960e8985 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-11  el_before_av_one_third  avia-builder-el-first  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-2tlo06-86c24308cf46e3ac1d67b1ee87afb28b\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-2tlo06-86c24308cf46e3ac1d67b1ee87afb28b{\npadding-bottom:10px;\nfont-size:40px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-2tlo06-86c24308cf46e3ac1d67b1ee87afb28b .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-2tlo06-86c24308cf46e3ac1d67b1ee87afb28b .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:40px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-2tlo06-86c24308cf46e3ac1d67b1ee87afb28b .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n\n@media only screen and (min-width: 480px) and (max-width: 767px){ \n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-2tlo06-86c24308cf46e3ac1d67b1ee87afb28b .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:0.8em;\n}\n}\n\n@media only screen and (max-width: 479px){ \n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-2tlo06-86c24308cf46e3ac1d67b1ee87afb28b .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:0.8em;\n}\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-2tlo06-86c24308cf46e3ac1d67b1ee87afb28b av-special-heading-h2 blockquote modern-quote modern-centered  avia-builder-el-12  avia-builder-el-no-sibling  av-inherit-size'><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Team<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-1darpxi-3b0d396a7da7828624ce7c920533e24b\">\n.flex_column.av-1darpxi-3b0d396a7da7828624ce7c920533e24b{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-1darpxi-3b0d396a7da7828624ce7c920533e24b av_one_third  avia-builder-el-13  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_one_third  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='avia-team-member av-1bswmty-d53ab436bba307cb41926722184fe4d0  avia-builder-el-14  avia-builder-el-no-sibling '  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Person\" ><div class=\"team-img-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-4802 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-4802 avia_image avia_image_team' src=\"https:\/\/thomas-skipwith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Thomas_Skipwith-Speaker-Trainer-Coach-Autor.png\" alt='Thomas Skipwith'  itemprop=\"image\"   height=\"443\" width=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thomas-skipwith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Thomas_Skipwith-Speaker-Trainer-Coach-Autor.png 400w, https:\/\/thomas-skipwith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Thomas_Skipwith-Speaker-Trainer-Coach-Autor-271x300.png 271w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><div class=\"team-social\"><div class=\"team-social-inner\"><span class='hidden av_member_url_markup '  itemprop=\"email\" >mailto:speak@thomas-skipwith.com<\/span><a href='mailto:speak@thomas-skipwith.com' class='avia-team-icon av-19usucm-5774e18d912852011c86bff85d6a99bc avia-iconfont avia-font-entypo-fontello' rel='v:url' data-avia-tooltip=\"email\"  data-av_icon='\ue805' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello' ><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><h3 class='team-member-name '  itemprop=\"name\" >Thomas Skipwith<\/h3><div class='team-member-job-title '  itemprop=\"jobTitle\" >LIC.
