Bio
Duncan Eadie
Many years ago Niels helped me out with a failing supplier. How he handled this , without ruining the relationship, was a technique that i have often used since. Niels is a great leader, able to share his knowledge and mentor when necessary. Niels will be successful in any business he turns his hand to as he drives and develops teams towards goals. Also a very pleasant person to know.
Steven Radwell
I had the pleasure of working with Niels for nearly two years at Fidelity. He is a hard-working, thoughtful, detail- and results-oriented executive who constantly strives to push toward the organization's short- and long-term goals. Niels is also a first-rate manager of people who knows when to be tough and when to take a softer tone. He would be a tremendous asset to any organization he worked with.
