A few words about me: I am 51 years old and live together with my partner Bas in Loon op Zand (Brabant). My two children (Josephine en Matthijs) left home to study.

1. Significant contribution to solving the climate problem
2. Creation of a future proof Finance organisation
3. Implementation of a ‘caring & daring’ leadershipstyle
