Digital Transformation, don’t forget to onboard your organization and people! Digital Business Transformation combines digital and organizational change. As a social econometrist I love to analyze data, and as a leader I love to energize people and organizations based upon vision and embedding data in their way of working and thinking.

Hans Wester
Associate
My passion is to make complex problems simpler. And this is less easy than it seems. It requires the ability to see the big picture without losing sight of details. Often it concerns ingrained habits or processes, or it seems that ‘business’ and ‘technology’ simply do not seem to understand each other. With my extensive ICT experience as a product manager, product owner and project manager, I speak both languages, and in most cases surprisingly simple solutions are feasible.
