Olga Boenigk

I'm not a consultant who discovered maritime, and I'm not a technologist who discovered people. I'm an HR Director in offshore energy and part of the leadership team, which means I make these decisions and then live with them. That changes what I can say on a stage. I can talk about what didn't work, because it was mine. I can tell you what a crew actually says when you introduce something new, because I've been in the room when they said it. And I'm not selling a platform, so I have no reason to pretend the answer is bigger than it is. I also write a newsletter on AI in shipping with around 1,450 subscribers, which means I hear the same questions from the industry every week — and I know which ones people only ask privately. Audiences get someone who speaks their language, in English or German, and who would rather leave them with one thing they'll actually do than ten things they'll admire and forget.
