I am a trainer, coach and consultant with more than 30 years' experience in change programmes. I train professionals in Lean, Agile, Scrum, project management, leadership and soft skills – more than 2,000 by now. I also guide teams and management teams at organisations that want to work in a more agile way. In my courses I work with participants' real issues, so that they leave with something they can apply on Monday. I am the author of En nu echt agile!
