Testimonials for Dietmar Dahmen

Mind-blowing. Unforgettable. Inspiring. I never thought l'd witness a presentation that brought together dolphins, horses, Neanderthals and Homo sapiens, comics, the power of the Hulk, ways of robbing a bank, the use of AI, and ended with LITERALLY riding a shark. But only a speaker like Dietmar Dahmen could make that happen - and turn it into a powerful wake-up call for us in Alfa Laval ad our Partners. Dietmar reminded us of the urgency of embracing change, doing it now, and with the right team, the right setup, and a spirit of collaboration. His energy was infectious, and clearly had an impact during Partner Days 2024 while, with our Partners, we discussed, celebrated and committed a better world. Thank you, Dietmar, for showing us that the wildest ideas can lead to the greatest transformations!
