As a people manager, I have a strong background in organisation design and optimization, always with a focus on people and their success - I can only be successful if my team is successful. I invest time in staying on top of technology developments and trends, not only because this is important for my role, but also because I'm a technology enthusiast and enjoy doing so a lot.
