CONSULTANT AND SPEAKER ON GLOBAL BUSINESS AND LEADERSHIP ISSUES

What do I do?

tile_lijn

Consulting on cultural diversity is inspiring. My aim is to make people curious about cultural differences, to allow them to see that it can be energizing and fun to explore different perspectives on the same situation.

 

Methods & focal points

tile_lijn

My methods can be untraditional. With 30 years into globalization, business people in the 21st century have become a little overconfident about working internationally.
