Speaker and columnist

I’m on stage about 30 times a year at various business and entrepreneurial events like Week van de ondernemer (Week of the entrepreneur), Sprout Challangerday, Trendship X media, SMC050 and many others. My keynotes are about:

• Leadership & entrepreneurship,
• Customer & colleague happiness,
• (Cloud) tools & technology and
• The Voys Model/Holacracy – our non-management way of organizing companies.

The talks incorporate a lot of big tech trends and the impact they are going to have on organizations and society. You’ll often see me with a camera before or after an event. I simply love how a photo can freeze a moment in time and how one image can tell an entire story.

I’m a guest lecturer at Hogeschool Stenden, NHL, The University of Groningen and Hanze university for applied sciences in both their regular business and their MBA program.

I write about entrepreneurship and leadership as well as tech trends and (cloud)tools and you’ll often find me up in arms about net neutrality and online privacy. These articles can be found on various places like the leading Dutch news organization RTL website, Dutch lifehacking blog Lifehacking.nl, the largest Dutch marketing blog Frankwatching.com, marketing and tech site Emerce.nl and Under30ceo.com.

You can also find my columns and interviews in newspapers and magazines including Sprout and Management Team.
