Guiding a multidisciplinairy Research & Development team of design engineers, lead engineers, project leaders and specialists in the field of Patient Handling, Cooling & Infra of the Philips premium MRI products.

Started with 5 engineers, I build up a group of 45 Mechanical Engineers (MSc level), divided over 3 business units; High Tech Systems, Medical Devices and Industrial Systems (Automation). My tasks were amongst others; strategic resource and capacity planning, enabling personal growth (competences), motivate, inspire and lead personnel, managing and improvement of processes.

To build up the water polo division of roughly 250 members. Setting up, directing and leading various committees to realize all the goals that we set for the future. My vision is that together we are strong and get things done. I will do my utmost to bind people to the club and to each other to build up the club to a very united sports club!
