Hi! I’m a Product Management Consultant and Professional Scrum Trainer based in The Netherlands.
I help organisations to thrive in the face of complexity and uncertainty by improving their ability to learn and adapt.
My work empowers organisations to build products and services that solve actual customer problems, achieve strategic goals, and drive measurable impact.
What I do
More concretely, my work centers around:
🎯 Bridging the gap between high-level strategy and the tactical realities of product development, ensuring alignment on vision, goals, and execution
📈 Defining clear strategic objectives and measurable results to track progress
🔁 User- and customer-centred product development through co-creation, experimentation, and feedback loops
🤝 Fostering collaboration across disciplines and silos to ensure alignment and knowledge sharing
🚀 Training, coaching, and mentoring Product Owners, Product Managers, and teams on Product Management, improving their capabilities to maximise value
What led me here
After writing my PhD thesis on modelling risks, I worked on risk management in the area of climate change and studied diverging perspectives on how to build smart cities. Publications I (co-)authored during this time can be found here.
My research taught me how the making and using of technologies interact with organisational and social contexts. Without an understanding of such interactions, the benefits of technological innovation are compromised, leading to waste, missed opportunities, and risk exposure.
Informed by these insights, I decided I wanted to help organisations build products and services with maximum benefit for the end user in a more effective manner.
I have since positioned myself on the interface between product management, Scrum, and design thinking.
