Richard Kaan

Richard Kaan (born 1954 in Salzburg) is an Austrian author, journalist, communications consultant and speaker. In his books and stage programmes, he addresses socially relevant topics that are often overlooked, bringing them to light in a pointed, humorous and astute manner.

With his work “Woman: Fit, Capable, 50+ – I have everything the job needs – just not the age!” he creates a powerful manifesto against age discrimination in the modern working world, placing experience, competence and life achievements at the centre.

As a narrator and speaker, Richard Kaan combines well-founded social analysis with personal connection – his readings invite listeners to listen, reflect and think further.
