In co-creation with all relevant players, focused on that common higher goal \u2013 where each party is held accountable for their responsibilities. From this role, he has operationalized several successful innovations. Additionally, he has two decades of experience as a supervisor, is a sought-after speaker (including TED-X), and has multiple acclaimed management book titles to his name.
\nA common thread is his fascination for creating value in a 4O context (Governments, Entrepreneurs, Education, Environment) \u2013 aimed at solving societal issues (such as flow, sustainability, and safety) \u2013 from an ecosystem perspective (\u2018think big, act small\u2019). His passion lies in operationalizing new innovative concepts through network leadership. In the role of director of innovation processes \u2013 focused on inspiring and guiding my team and environment \u2013 to take steps towards the next phase of the innovation lifecycle. With a focus on realizing different revenue models: from traditional \u2018business to government\u2019 (B2G: government as client) to \u2018business to business\u2019 (B2B: government creates an environment that encourages parties to invest).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
