Realisation: Remote collaboration was the engine behind my engagement during my years with IBM
It took me a year to get sufficient perspective of the fifteen years I spent with IBM to realise just how much of my engagement and energy had been generated from the transparent collaboration and networking I had experienced with colleagues around the ENTIRE world. Not that I didn’t appreciate it at the time, but […]
Productive phone conferences
In these times of coronainduced travel restrictions, I expect that remote meetings will surge. And that many will feel inexperienced and uncertain on how to make those meetings productive and positive, as participant or as host or presenter. With fifteen years under my belt in international and global roles in one of the world’s most […]

As a consultant, you don’t have any executive powers towards your client. You consult. You analyse. You suggest. You explain. But you don’t decide. That’s the prerogative of your client. And […]
Think of your employer as a distribution channel of You
Uneven relationships usually don’t work out well in the long run (at least not for both parties). That old truth holds water for romantic relationships as well as for between countries and….on the job market. Employers complain about the low employee engagement revealed in their annual employee surveys. Duh! What do they really expect when […]
To walk in the shoes of someone else, you first have to take off your own
Know your customer! Understand the user! Know your enemy! We’ve all heard these calls. To best be able to sell to customers what they really need and will appreciate, to design things that people will use, appreciate and rave about to their friends and acquaintances – or to best beat your enemies – you first […]

Persistent team chat has been the darling of the collaboration scene for a while now. The most prominent one being Slack, but also Atlassian HipChat, Cisco Spark, Microsoft Teams and now Watson Workspace from my employer.
