An audience that knows change first hand

On Mark 51°7, companies now run research where cars once rolled off the line. The housing sector is digitising its portfolios and service processes, the energy industry is rebuilding its business, and the IT security scene keeps growing in the middle of the city. An audience in Bochum therefore listens to talks about change differently: it tests every claim against its own workplace. So Jasmin does not open with slogans. She opens with situations this audience recognises: how decisions actually get made in large organisations, why good projects get stuck between departments, and what leadership carries when the plan changes. She treats AI where it changes work concretely, in service, planning and administration, not as science fiction painting.

From the annual kick off to the evening impulse

Typical occasions in Bochum: the annual kick off at the RuhrCongress, the leadership conference in a conference hotel, the strategy day on the company's own premises, or an evening format at the Zeche Bochum. Every stage demands its own length and tone, from a compact 20 minute opener to a 45 minute centrepiece. Jasmin develops each keynote from scratch after the briefing, using the projects, terms and friction points of the company. At the Digital Transformation Conference, a corporate reference with over 600 participants and more than 20 speakers, she was on the programme as a speaker herself, so she knows how an impulse has to land inside a dense agenda.

One voice for impulse and programme

Many organisers combine the keynote with hosting the full day. The benefit is the common thread: the terms from the impulse reappear in panels and working sessions, and the same voice leads every discussion back to them. Organisationally it stays simple: one briefing, one contract, one contact person. Whether your day needs an impulse or continuous moderation is sorted out in Keynote or moderation. More about the format is on the hub Keynote speaker, and all Bochum pages are collected on the Bochum city page.

Frequently asked questions

Which topics fit Bochum?
Leadership through change, collaboration across departmental borders, and AI in the daily business of housing, energy and services. The examples come from her own corporate practice.
Is the keynote tailored to the company?
Yes. The briefing provides projects, framework figures and internal terminology. From this she builds a dedicated outline that you approve before the event.
Does she deliver the talk in English?
Yes, entirely in English or in a guided mix of both languages, for example when international researchers or partners are in the room.
Does an industrial monument work for a keynote?
Yes, with adjustments. Venues like the Zeche demand shorter sentences, more pauses and a proper soundcheck. Jasmin rehearses the opening on site.
Can she moderate the panel after the keynote?
Yes, that is actually the most common setup: impulse in the morning, then a panel or Q&A led by the same voice along the same thread.
What does a keynote in Bochum cost?
Scope, preparation and a possible combination with moderation determine the price. After the briefing you receive a written offer with a fixed fee.
