As a CHRO, I have made critical contributions to Global HR, business transformation, and the future of…work. Being the first Chief Employee Experience Officer in the Netherlands, I have been pioneering in the field of Employee Experience (EX) as a foundation for new HR business and operating models. One of my leading questions has always been: How do we value humans in a context of technology?! I have acted both as transformation leader and operational leader with a strong focus on execution and delivery. My passion is to connect people and support businesses in their growth with a clear focus on leadership development and composition. As a corporate HR executive, I leverage my progressive career in Financial Services with a clear focus on people, business, and organization transformation, expressing a creative growth mindset with strong business acumen. As an entrepreneur I co-founded Mindlike, a progressive investment company focused on Humanizing Growth. My passion for growth and development also extends into my role as Chairman for Join for Joy, an NGO with the ambition to introduce schools in Sub Saharan Africa to the power of playful learning.
