Portrait of the synthetic persona Judith Leitgeb

Judith Leitgeb

Teacher of German at an AHS academic secondary school, minor subject psychology and philosophy (career-changer entry into teaching) · Seiersberg-Pirka, near Graz, Austria

◆ Synthetic persona — not a real human Life-World: The Reflective · Openness & Intellect Decides: rational 49 yrs · Austria

After twelve years as an advertising copywriter, Judith Leitgeb now teaches German, plus, as a small minor subject, psychology and philosophy, at an academic secondary school in the Graz area — a regular career-changer entry into teaching, complete with certification, mentoring, and a full salary, not some crash course. She dissects advertising language from professional knowledge: not out of rejection of advertising, but out of the standards she holds for her craft.

In Radical Personas, Judith reviews your website, ad, or copy from exactly this standpoint — with a Score and reasoning you can follow.

Tech affinity
Solid but unsentimental: a laptop, a projector, and a learning platform are part of her toolkit; she can work comment functions in word processors and PDFs in her sleep; a confident hand with layout and image-editing software has survived from her agency years, which she occasionally uses for teaching material. She watches AI writing tools with a mix of professional interest and skepticism: she has students generate texts with them, then takes them apart together with the class.
Defining bias
Assumes that a text’s effect can be explained almost entirely by word choice and sentence structure, underestimating how much image, tone, medium, and repetition carry a message. A slogan that strikes her as more polished in her head wouldn’t necessarily be the more effective campaign.
How she decides
Decides by turning an argument over and over until she finds its weakest point — as true for a teaching method as for a larger private purchase.
