An audience that filters out pathos

Halls in Bremen do not applaud grand gestures. In aerospace at Airbus, OHB and ArianeGroup, at the Mercedes-Benz plant and in the logistics business around the ports, people measure every claim against numbers and their own working day. An opening talk that carries here needs no buzzwords. It names what is genuinely hard about change, shows how other companies have dealt with it, and leaves the room with something that is still useful the next morning. This northern German sobriety suits the way Jasmin works on stage: clear arguments, real examples, no motivational theatre.

Leadership, but not from a textbook

Jasmin spent more than ten years as a corporate leader, most recently as a director at Bosch responsible for 100 people between Europe and the Middle East, with earlier stations at SAP and in the Volkswagen Group. Her topics come from that practice: leading while programmes and structures change. Collaborating while partners sit in several countries. Communicating while one half of the team speaks English and the other German. Every date starts with a briefing built around one question: what is actually occupying your room right now? From the answers she builds examples that fit your company rather than a speech off the shelf.

From Die Glocke to the production hall

The setting shapes the talk. An annual kick-off in Die Glocke needs a different tone than a works meeting in your own hall or a leadership conference at the Congress Centrum on the Bürgerweide. If your site runs in shifts, Jasmin will deliver the impulse twice on the same day, so both groups hear the same programme. When picking a date, a look at the Bremen calendar helps: in October the Freimarkt ties up the Bürgerweide and its surroundings, and in December the Christmas market and the Schlachte-Zauber fill the city centre and its venues.

Booking your keynote in Bremen

For morning slots Jasmin travels the day before, by rail via Hanover or through Bremen Airport close to the city; the briefing itself runs via video beforehand. Many companies book the impulse and the day's moderation together, so one person holds the thread of the whole day. The topics are outlined on the keynote speaker page, and keynote or moderation explains where one role ends and the other begins.

Frequently asked questions

How long is a typical keynote in Bremen?
Between 20 and 45 minutes, depending on the programme. Length and depth are set in the briefing, from a compact impulse at an annual kick-off to a full talk with a Q&A round.
Does an impulse fit into a works meeting with shift operations?
Yes. The talk is then cut more compactly and, if you wish, delivered twice, so that early and late shift get the same programme.
Does she speak in front of technical audiences from aerospace or automotive?
Yes. Technical audiences are familiar ground: she comes from the corporate world herself and hosted the Bosch Power Tools Innovation Day, a corporate reference, with six product launches, live demos and Q&A with the development team.
Does she deliver the keynote in English?
Yes, entirely in English or with German key messages for the room. For the international teams of many Bremen companies, that is often exactly the right format.
What does a keynote in Bremen cost?
That depends on length, preparation and a possible combination with hosting the day. After the briefing you receive a written quote; travel and accommodation costs are listed separately in it.
