About André Meiresonne

André Meiresonne has experienced crisis himself, but knows it does not have to be a negative lesson. A crisis offers the ultimate chance to transform. Urgency is called for, because when a crisis presents itself, resistance tends to be omitted. It is a prime opportunity to achieve profound changes. A famous example is the Ahold-drama from 2003. Albert Heijn has used this opportunity to become a better company because they went back to their origins to add new value to the company. André applies these lessons to the economic crisis as no other. He shows that change is not easy, but it is necessary.André Meiresonne has worked at various organizations dedicated to training and education, including de Baak, Bout & Partners and as a teacher at Ik en de Anderen.

Leading to yourself and others. A book about organization and leading to yourself and others.
