Quote: "One of my favorite leadership wisdoms is that a pessimist complains about the wind, an optimist expects the wind to change direction, and a leader adjusts the sails. In a fast changing world personal leadership will become more important. Adjust your own sails when needed and aim to keep on moving. Then you keep on traveling and quoting a wise man; that is more important than the destination.”

Profession & company: Independent chairman of the PME pension fund / supervisory director & non-executive director of pension funds
Quote: Given the disruptive developments in our society, partly as a result of technology that is developing faster and faster, current knowledge and experience is becoming less and less relevant and competences are becoming increasingly important. This includes flexibility, capacity to change, capacity to adapt, creativity and being open minded. Leaders of the future don't know better than their employees. They should be guides and lead by example on this journey through an unknown world.”
