Tatjana Krajsic
Speaker & Host
Of Serbian origin, I was born and raised in Germany. I love sharing my stories of growing up as a child of immigrants and later on working as an expat in Singapore for close to 4 years.
My current research interests focus on diversity and inclusion, intercultural communication, heritage and belonging, leadership as well as cross-cultural awareness and sensitivity. I am able to deliver my talks in English, German, and Serbian. Further, I speak Spanish and Portuguese.
When you choose me as your keynote speaker or host, you can expect a customized experience that perfectly aligns with your objectives.

CreativeMornings Keynote
ROOTS
What does “home” mean when we live in a place that’s culturally different from where our parents originated? And what impact does it have on our lives?
Tatjana’s talk is inspired by the social phenomenon of cross cultural kids – children who have lived and interacted with two or more cultural environments during the first 18 years of life. She notes the unique joys and challenges of transitioning between cultures, pairing this with her own upbringing as a Serbian being born and raised in Germany.
What are the challenges in an increasingly mobile world where diversity is getting bigger and bigger? And might we need to rethink our perception of “where home is”? This is what Tatjana set out to explore in her talk.
SheSays - Keynote
We strive to embrace diversity and inclusion in our schools and workplaces, but there is often a great divide between theory and the way we pursue it in actuality.
What do we need to create inclusive environments? Tatjana believes that in order to make diversity work, we need a shift in mindset in the way people interact and engage such as the openness to consider new approaches.
In this online session, SheSays sits down with me in a conversation to discuss perspectives what this change might entail.

GrowGetter Podcast – Peer-to-Peer Session
Diversity is a term we've heard countless times. We're repeatedly told that we should be recruiting more diverse talent, encouraging diverse perspectives, and ensuring equal opportunities for all. It's become a buzzword in today's world.
In GrowGetter’s peer-to-peer session, I have shared my expertise about diversity and explained that despite our growing awareness and acknowledgement of the importance of diversity, progress in building more diverse teams seems to be moving at a snail's pace. This is even as our society becomes increasingly diverse. Head over to growgetters.io for full show notes!
