The trouble with our times is that the future is not what it used to be.
— Paul Valéry, French poet

After over 30 years experience, the guiding theme in my career has always been long term value creation. My expertise was born out of numerous leadership roles during a vast career at IDH, The Sustainable Trade Initiative, as CEO in various Philips Electronics businesses and through extensive travels throughout the World uniting divers stakeholders (political entities, NGO's and multinationals) for a common sustainable goal. How can I help your sustainable goal? 

As a freelance consultant I support companies to develop and implement sustainable strategies.

 
 

"In  2009 I realised that only with a Collective Leadership effort of front running companies the devastating side effects of unbridled economic growth can be bent to Sustainable Development in service of People, Planet and Profit. This belief has guided my career since then. My vision on Sustainability can be focused on 3 main points:  (1) Redefining a company's value proposition, (2) Re-directing resources to sustainable development and (3) Rethinking Western consumption habits and approaches."
