Bio
Ralph Philbert-Tielman
Hiring Bas as marketing manager for Cargoguide was to fulfill two needs. Growing the business commercially and providing the staff with a clear 'Why'. I would have never imagined how Bas took on that challenge. With such clear vision and conviction, he managed to reinvent Cargoguide's identity and execute a complete culture shift, providing staff with meaning and purpose. Tripling the team in size and building the foundation for an enthusiastic committed family. Bas is a true leader and inspirator not to mention being an academic in global business! I am happy to call him a true friend that is still challenging and 'daring me to improve', after we both transitioned to different departments at WiseTech Global.

Bas is an example of a hard working over achiever; Although I haven't directly worked with Bas in the same department, he has constantly supported my growth and therefore my career. Bas is a problem solver with a can-do attitude, he always goes the extra mile which is demonstrated in his marketing career at Panda Int. He always applies his versatile skill set in every project he performs and I have seen excellence in his examples of video editing, innovative ideas and all round creativity. Bas is a true entrepreneur and always thinks outside the box, he is very supportive to those around him and a role model. I would thoroughly recommend working with Bas if given the chance.
