IF YOU NEED BALLS, MAKE SURE THEY’RE TITANIUM ONES

Titans are children of the gods. Giants

who fight for their freedom. Since at least

the 2002 World Cup Oliver Kahn is also a

giant – both as an athlete and as a per-

son, equipped with willpower as strong

as titanium. His willingness to perform to

the max and his abilities as a goalkeeper

have made him a legend and global role

model. “Further, always further” is his

credo and it drives him to constantly

learn new things and further develop

himself.

To achieve great things, Oliver Kahn

brings all his skills to bear. He views set-

backs and lows as productive opportuni-

ties. He is a winner who knows how to

lose and who is not too proud to take a

backstage role if it’s for the greater good.

The higher the requirements and the

greater the challenge, the more his per-

sonal potential can fully have an impact.

Oliver Kahn lives this attitude in all he

does with intensity and success like no

one else.

MY WILLPOWER DRIVES ME TO TRY NEW THINGS

Oliver Kahn‘s career as a world-class

goalkeeper has created the foundation

for his extensive expertise, high level

of public recognition, and credibility.

It’s the kind of success that makes him

independent and allows him to provide

clear and transparent content about

peak performance that goes far beyond

the sport. He provides new impetus that

gives people guidance and inspiration.

Oliver Kahn believes in inner strength.

He believes that people can achieve a lot

with discipline, patience and passion.

He has proven it again and again - even

after his career as a professional foot-

baller ended: He holds an ‘A’ trainer’s

licence, a master’s degree in business

administration and, as a football expert,

draws millions of television viewers. As

an entrepreneur and philanthropist, he

consistently translates his success as a

former high performance athlete into

achievements in different areas. He is an

example for all those who want to work

hard in life in order to progress.

And Oliver Kahn has by no means reached all his goals...

BEING LIKED ISN’T EVERYTHING WHEN YOUR NAME IS OLIVER KAHN

Oliver Kahn is a polarizing figure. Any-

thing else would not be Oliver Kahn. He

does not want to be everybody’s darling.

He’s not willing to bend. This is exactly

why he is respected and often admired.

Just as for his courage, his perseverance,

his dedication and for the rough edges

he shows. Oliver Kahn is far closer to real

life than many A-listers. This is what

makes him so authentic and unique. If

one could portray this characteristic in

polls, Oliver Kahn would be right on top

of the list. So really, one should read the

graph as follows: 42% approval rating,

58% recognition, appreciation and au-

thenticity.

HERE’S THE THING.

Everyone has courage. Everyone has

will power. It’s belief in these things

that’s crucial. “I believe in myself.”

That’s the inner voice that must al-

ways be present. And it needs to be

strong. Louder than anything else.

By translating my achievements as a

top athlete into my current activities,

I want to give this voice strength and

continuity. That’s my vision.
