In the \u201cJungmeisterkreis\u201d young craftspeople support one another \u2014 and along the way they make tremendous progress. HINNO asked board member Carola Grote-Sticka about it.<\/h4>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

What is the main purpose of the \u201cJungmeisterkreis\u201d?<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The \u201cJungmeisterkreis Raumausstatter\u201d is a network for masters and journeymen (and women) who live the craft of interior decoration wholeheartedly. The association is a platform for exchanging experiences, for vocational further training, and for mutual helping, networking and meeting up.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

What concrete services do you offer?<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

We have a rather lively group chat for mutual exchange about materials and ideas. Through this, vacant positions or staff are shared, seminars, trade fairs etc. are announced, help is requested for jobs \u2014 e.g. swapping personnel \u2014 and clients are referred.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t

Yes, that\u2019s a very important aspect. If someone has a problem, one can ask in the group chat. Usually within five minutes the first answer arrives. Thus the personal research is reduced to a minimum. In the group \u2014 currently nearly 70 members \u2014 there is always someone who has an idea right away, has the right little roller at hand, is nearby, or can give a helpful contact. Such direct communication on this scale is spectacular in our industry.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The absolute highlight is the Jungmeistertagung together with the Jungmeisterkreis of saddlers, which takes place every two years. Around 120-140 young masters attend such a meeting, along with sponsors, association and industry representatives. Over two days, there is always a varied program with specialist lectures (craftsmanship, business management, social media, AI, health topics, etc.) as well as hands-on workshops by colleagues for colleagues. Our sponsors also showcase themselves at the conference and engage with participants. Of course, two evening events are not missing \u2014 because after the conference days we also like to celebrate together!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

From April 17 to 19, 2026 in Erfurt. We are currently busy with the planning. It will be exciting, that much I can promise. From November the preliminary program will be ready and the booking portal for registration will be opened.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

In the years between the major conferences we meet up for smaller \u201cspecials\u201d. Usually we visit a supplier company. We look inside the production, exchange views about materials and their products, and attend expert lectures by specialists. Also, once a month we have a virtual evening talk. During this meeting there is always a speaker who gives a short talk (about half an hour) on different, current topics. Afterwards we discuss together and share our experiences on that topic.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Over the years I have been motivated by the solidarity of the group and the coming together of the Jungmeisterkreise of interior decorators and saddlers. At the start of my self-employment I had no connections to other businesses. For example, I did not know\u2014like from my training company, the companies from vocational school, etc.\u2014that collaboration with other colleagues in the same trade was possible.<\/p>

Only after attending my first Jungmeistertagung did I realise that there are excellent businesses and young business owners who are concerned with the same issues as me. So it was no question for me to get involved in the circle and in 2015 to take over the board of the association together with two wonderful colleagues. From then on I was no longer \u201cgoing it alone,\u201d and over the years I have met many wonderful people in the craft and in the industry. By now many colleagues have become friends, with whom one always finds a sympathetic ear. Simply a great group!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
