Dominique Jäger is a leadership, culture, and transformation expert who has built her reputation by challenging accepted norms in the workplace and helping organisations create environments where people and performance can thrive together. Known for her refreshingly honest perspective on leadership, employee experience, diversity, and organisational change, Dominique speaks on the realities of modern working life, tackling topics that many businesses recognise but few openly discuss. Combining sharp business insight with humour and organisational psychology, she has become a sought-after speaker who helps leaders rethink culture, transformation, and the way organisations operate. Her approach is grounded in the belief that meaningful change begins with honesty, reflection, and the courage to address what everyone is already thinking.
Dominique's career began in executive support and project management roles, where she worked closely with senior leaders and gained first-hand insight into organisational decision-making. At Total-Source Management, she established an Executive Office and supported major public-sector IT projects while building a valuable network across business, science, and politics. She later joined the s.Oliver Group, contributing to large-scale SAP transformation programmes affecting thousands of employees before progressing into commercial leadership support roles. After moving to Berlin, she worked alongside founders and senior executives at Rocket Internet and RatePAY, where she supported organisational change, restructuring, and growth initiatives. Her career then evolved into senior leadership positions, including COO and CSO of Global Digital Women, where she helped scale the organisation and launch its diversity consultancy. At DKB, she became a driving force behind culture transformation, leadership development, diversity strategy, and employee experience, ultimately leading people and culture initiatives across the wider group.
Alongside her corporate career, Dominique has established herself as a recognised voice in leadership and organisational culture. She serves on the Board of Top Talents under 25 and previously held an advisory role with STARTUP TEENS. As host of The Doers Podcast, she interviews leading figures from business, science, and politics, exploring stories of courage, resilience, and action.
Dominique is hired as a motivational speaker because she combines extensive leadership experience with an unusually honest understanding of organisational reality. Having worked across corporations, start-ups, private equity environments, and high-growth businesses, she understands the challenges leaders and employees face at every level. Her presentations challenge audiences to question outdated assumptions, embrace change, and create healthier, more effective workplaces. Blending practical experience, humour, storytelling, and organisational psychology, Dominique delivers thought-provoking keynote speeches that inspire people to move from discussion to action. Audiences leave with greater self-awareness, a clearer perspective on leadership, and the confidence to challenge the status quo in pursuit of meaningful and lasting change.
