Ambition and drive

My primary ambition is to lead, facilitate, develop and evolve individuals in balance with managing the processes to meet and exceed the business goals. My main drive is to create an environment that gets the best out of people around me (clients, partners, peers and colleagues), to appeal to their intrinsic motivators so that the teams go the extra mile with a smile and compassion. I am there for them, not the other way around.

Spotting, developing, growing and harvesting growth opportunities, both in humans and in business, thrills me. You will always find me networking as a professional ambassador, aligned with the corporate vision, mission and values, and a clear focus on measurable bottom-line results. The value of a network grows exponentially with the number of links. Relationships are the currency of the networked economy, creating tomorrow’s wealth. Change the changes.

Organizational wholeness

I add the most value in an environment where I am valued more for my creativeness, non- conformistic thinking, vision and leadership talents. My ambition is to excel in a leadership role, using leading edge and extreme quality people, blending my architectural and organizational talents into creating and growing agile multi-disciplinary teams of excellence that in some way help make the world a better place by using state-of-the-art resources. I thrive in flat, networked organizations. I like working with people, help find and cultivate their talents, and always strive to make the total much greater than the sum of the parts. Wholeness.

Inspiring & energizing

I get my energy from working in a state of flow with sharp and focused teams. I invoke energy in my role as wise fool. I get my inspiration and passion from people like Christopher Alexander, Tim Berners-Lee, Jesus Christ, Arnold Cornelis, Stephen Covey, Bill Gates, James Gosling, Amit Goswami, Steve Jobs, Bill Joy, Stewart Kauffman, Kevin Kelly, Steve Krug, Dalai Lama, Ervin Laszlo, Scott McNealy, Geoffry Moore, Jakob Nielsen, Donald Norman, Alvin Toffler, and Bruce Tognazzini. Their collective intellect help me see at least two years ahead of the curve.

Don’t just take my word for it

Others see me as fresh, lively, charming, passionate, amusing, practical and always interesting; someone who's constantly in the center of attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to my head. They also see me as open, integer, loyal, committed, dedicated, kind, considerate, and understanding; as someone who'll always cheer them up and help them out. And last but not least, they see me as someone with vision, with a clear picture of the techno-social future.
