Jasmin Wölke delivers keynotes in Berlin on leadership, communication and transformation, in English and German. In a city that hears dozens of stage impulses every week, only a keynote backed by real experience carries.
The hardest city to impress
Berlin is saturated with keynotes. Europe's largest startup scene has heard every growth story three times, the associations know every digitalisation slide, and guests from politics and ministries listen to speeches for a living. On top of that, audiences here are rarely homogeneous. At an association congress, members of parliament sit next to founders. At a tech conference, corporate managers sit next to activists. A keynote that speaks to only one of these groups loses the others. Jasmin therefore builds her talks around experiences that work in all of these worlds: real decisions, real resistance, an honest balance sheet. Buzzwords replace nothing here. They cost credibility.
At home between corporation and startup
Jasmin was most recently a director at Robert Bosch, responsible for 100 people across Europe and the Middle East, after earlier roles at SAP and within the Volkswagen Group, alongside a Master of Science and an MBA. This biography gives her a position that is rare on a Berlin stage. She knows corporate inertia from the inside and knows what change really costs. For a startup audience, that explains why the corporate client decides so slowly. For associations and political guests, it shows what transformation looks like beyond declarations of intent. Her full background is in the curriculum.
From the bcc to STATION Berlin
Berlin keynotes open congresses at the bcc on Alexanderplatz or at the Estrel, set the tone at conferences in STATION Berlin, or condense a corporate event in the evening, for instance at the Axica next to the Brandenburg Gate. The tech scene works in English, many association formats in German. Jasmin delivers the keynote in either language and takes the Q&A in the other one on request. In the briefing she tailors topic and examples to your audience, from the energy transition to the talent shortage. The format is explained on the keynote speaker page.
Getting there and next steps
Jasmin flies from Stuttgart to Berlin in around one hour ten minutes and arrives the evening before for early calls. Many organisers combine the keynote with hosting the full day, and one briefing covers both roles. The local context is on the Berlin city page.
