Heiko Schmidt, Christiane Nicolai,
Herausgegeben von Philipp Ramin,
Heiko Schmidt is a creative designer, a thinker and also a chaotic person with a desire to think the present in a new and different way. He dreams of a networked world in which people take care of each other. In which versatility and appreciation are lived. In which the “we” counts more than the “I” and in which people experiment so that even small changes can have a big impact. He studied business administration with a focus on organizational development and sociology at the University of Siegen, Germany.
After his traineeship at Jaguar Deutschland GmbH with a focus on marketing and sales, he began his further career at AUDI AG in Ingolstadt in 1999. Here he worked in a wide variety of business areas and functions with a focus on strategy development, organizational/personnel development, change/transformation management, as well as in Beijing, to set up a sales academy.
Since 2013, he has been Head of Dealer Development/Training Sales and is responsible for the selection, training and development of the various target groups of the Audi partner organization in Germany. In addition to these topics, he focuses on topics such as: Transformation/Cultural Management, Educational Research, as well as broader socially relevant future topics.
Christiane Nicolai is a Training Manager at AUDI AG for specialized After Sales Executives and Managers in the non-technical part of the Audi Partner Organization. Since decades, her research has been focused on finding optimal opportunities and conditions for individual learning, the design of self organized learning processes and learning arrangements. Due to her fascination and relevance of those concepts in times of digital change and transformation, a main emphasis of her work has been to implement her findings in digital and hybrid learning formats through digital learning design and gamification.
She studied pedagogy with a focus on adult education at the Justus-Liebig-University in Gießen, Germany and was involved in several scientific research projects of the Bund-Länder-Kommission on the topic of medial learning processes and professional competence development. In 1998, she took these topics to AUDI AG. Here she worked in internal education and training for the group’s employees and took over the development of an in-house e-learning team. Since 2009, she has been developing digital learning designs and innovative learning media for self-organized learning processes, among other things, as one of her core areas in the Sales division.
Dr. Philipp Ramin is a leading expert on digital transformation and future skills. With his company the Innovation Center for Industry 4.0 in Regensburg, Germany, which he founded whilst completing his Ph.D. on the topic of discontinuous innovation and digital business models, he trains more than 200,000 employees in 9 languages for leading companies from a wide range of industrial, business and financial sectors in more than 14 countries worldwide and has prepared a number of internationally recognized studies, for example on digitalization, artificial intelligence, digital competence. The Innovation Center for Industry 4.0 team, which was also instrumental in realizing this book, develops individual qualification solutions in the area of digitalization and Industry 4.0 for leading companies worldwide, including complete continuing education curricula and learning strategies as well as AR/VR solutions or complete digital online learning systems and competence management programs.
In 2022, together with one of his clients in the automotive sector, Philipp Ramin’s company was awarded the recognized "Project of the Year" eLearning Award for Instructional Design by Germany’s leading publisher in this field, elearning Journal for a state-of-the art digital competence upskilling program with high acceptance, artificial intelligence supported gamification elements and proven and measured acceleration of the transformation process.
