ABOUT

Integrity, C-level experience, strategic thinking, endurance, crisis management

The most important asset in any company are its people. Throughout my career, I have shown a deep passion for driving business growth by empowering employees to achieve their full potential in the workplace. However, it also takes hard work, detailed planning and constant improvement to deliver outstanding results over time. Building a strong emphasis on these aspects is where my experience and expertise lies.

BUSINESS

Board & advisory work

Dignitinis Governance offers advice to boards of directors or advisory boards

I am offering to provide independent oversight, can serve on committees or I can offer my experience and knowledge as a board member within primarily these industries and fields:

Luxury goods

30+ years experience within the luxury automotive segments as well as 10+ years experience within high-end sporting goods has provided me with valuable insights within the field of luxury goods.

Automotive, Mobility & Leisure

an automotive & mobility expert and a keen cyclist myself, combined with 12 years experience as a board member of Scott, one of the world-wide market leaders within development, manufacturing, sales and marketing of high-end performance sports good, has provided me with a unique understanding of the mobility and leisure industries.

Finance

Sales generate turnover and profits, Finance makes sure it stays so. My experience within consumer goods leasing combined with C-level responsibility over a period of 25 years managing large companies has given me solid knowhow in managing all aspects of finance and risks in medium to large companies.

Retail

“retail is detail”, said once James Gulliver of Argyll Foods, and he was so very right! I have 30 years experience working with automotive retailers in France, UK, Switzerland and Denmark. I know how important the interface to the customer is for any business.

CREDO

The Person

I like to travel at high speed – both at work and in my spare time. And I like to stay focused on the most important things.

Passionate about developing organisations and people. I am convinced that we can achieve everything that is truly important to us. Be the best you can be.

I am a change maker who sets the scene, the tone and the speed and trusts his team to act on this basis.

Values such as high quality, precision and carefulness are important to me.

In my limited spare time I enjoy spending time with my family, go cycling with friends or using my Leica camera to make those good memories last longer.
